Mnemosyne
Generation IV · Memory · The Titans
Titaness of memory, the power that held all poetry and history in an age before writing. Zeus lay with her for nine nights in Pieria, and in due course she bore nine daughters, the Muses, each an art made flesh. In the underworld lore of the mystery cults, a drink from her pool let the dead keep their memories, the mirror of forgetful Lethe.
One of 53 people of The Titans in this archive. Kronos and his kin, who ruled until their own children threw them down.
