Perched at the very north of the continent, standing atop Mount Nysa allowed one to overlook the entire north.
Since the end of the turmoil caused by Typhon, the Three Fates, collectively known as the Moirai by all gods, had relocated here.
The young maiden Clotho span the Thread of Fate from her spindle, each strand representing the entirety of a life.
The middle-aged woman Lachesis, with a staff marked with scales, measured the length of lives, determining the brevity or longevity of said threads.
The old crone Atropos, with her weathered skin and hoary hair, sheared the threads Clotho spun with her scissors of destiny, leading the existence of lives to their ultimate demise.
Such were the responsibilities of the Three Fates, as well as the powers and privileges bestowed upon them by the world.
With these powers, they could deftly weave the threads of fate, returning all things to their natural order.
