Proudly made in the USA. The Moerae: The Fates(Greek): The Moerae were the three daughters of night. Clotho was the spinner of the thread of life. Lachesis was chance and provided mortals with the element of luck. Atrop was the inescapable fate or "karma" against whom there was no appeal. The Moerae shadowed the whole of a mortal's life, from birth to death. They sat in council with all the gods and possessed the gift of prophesy. |
