Hysminai
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.
The Hysminai (Ancient Greek: ὑσμῖναι; singular: ὑσμίνη hysmine "battle, conflict, combat"[1]) are figures in Greek mythology. Descendants of Eris, they are personifications of battle.[2][3] Quintus Smyrnaeus[4] wrote of them in Book V of the Fall of Troy in a passage translated by Arthur Way:
Around them hovered the relentless Fates;
Beside them Battle incarnate onward pressed
Yelling, and from their limbs streamed blood and sweat.[5]
