![]() It’s been a million years since they’ve learned how to live with each other and handle all the issues that come up without a scandal. Among themselves they do not quarrel (I think we would immediately feel on ourselves if in our universe there were clashes of this scale ). Hemera is a very positive and smiling woman. They don’t usually have expressive, angry or aggressive attitude, unlike their descendants. I’d say calm is a trait of their generation. Therefore, I think that Aether actively helped the forefather Chaos to create our world.īy nature, Aether and Hemera are quite friendly and open dudes, very calm, mature from the experience of lived years. So, the aether can be called the fabric of existence. Then the aether was considered an intangible primary substance, an invisible medium, serving as a conduit for light, gravity, and even the time itself. The concept of a luminiferous aether came much later, almost in the 19th century. He taught them the music of the celestial spheres. Aether "sings," so I decided to make him the Moirai teacher. Ancient references speak of an unusual manifestation of the aether - a primary sound that is beyond the range of human hearing and is in the sphere of higher vibrations. The Pythagoreans considered him not only to be one of the elements, but also to be the essence of the soul of man. In mythology, Aether was considered the "father of all winds", but later he was given the role of a fifth element, apart from fire, earth, water and air. Hesiod also calls the aether one of the components of all material in the surrounding world. In mythology, Aether is considered to be high-altitude air, which is inhabited by all the gods, but the concept of the aether has also gone beyond the scope of the epic and has been most thoroughly discussed as a real-life phenomenon by many scientists.Īccording to Plato, the whole world was created out of this substance. To this day, Hemera and Nyx do their jobs in turn, evenly distributing darkness and light, balancing energy in our universe.Īether is the light opposite of the dark Erebus and, of all four, has the most ambiguous nature. The once-carefree game from the sisters' childhood - tag, later turned into their destiny. Hemera, on the other hand, introduced some order and methodicity into their kitchen, and the progenitor was pleased with the results. Theirs actions are rule-free, erratic, and CHAOTIC, actually. Chaos has long resisted her newfangled ways, but the beauty and complexity of Hemera’s systems have impressed him (Chaos is a very specific creator. I appointed Hemera to be the one who introduced to our world the notion of a cycle, the beginning of a circle of light and the origin of the order (Hemera isn’t an aggressive proponent of order, she simply introduced such an idea). There is a theory that Nyx and Hemera are the female versions of their brothers, and by their nature Hemera and Aether are indeed very similar - they both represent light, just as Nyx with Erebus represent darkness. It is very symbolic in my opinion, isn’t it? And I love their dual-opposing nature as sisters. The most popular version of the myth is the one where Hemera is the daughter of Nyx, but I prefer the version with the sister. Hemera is the epitome of day and the goddess of daylight. Their quartet forms the first generation of gods. Aether, Hemera, Nyx, and Erebus are four creatures that appeared at the dawn of our world. I prefer to think of them as creations of the original chaos. There are different theories about their origins. Aether - the eternal light, and Hemera - the embodiment of the day. ![]()
