The Myths
Torch-bearing Hecate kept her power through the fall of the Titans — Zeus himself honors her. She helped Demeter search the dark for Persephone and walks unbothered between all three realms.
Symbols & Domains
Twin torches, the crossroads, and the black dog. Hecate rules magic, the Mist, and doorways — every threshold is hers, especially at midnight.
Famous Children
Her children bend the Mist and read the crossroads. Handy in a fight, indispensable when the fight requires an exit no one else can see.
