Most of you are probably wondering "Who are the Fates? And what is it that they've decided?"
Like echoes, my childhood reverberates within me rather unexpectedly sometimes. I loved(and still do) love reading. Growing up, I read a lot of Greek mythology. Gods, Demi-gods and mortals were all fascinating creatures described on pages I could get lost in for hours and hours. No matter how powerful they all had one thing in common, they all feared the Fates.
Also known as the Moirae/Moerae, the Fates controlled every moment of life from birth to death. The golden thread represents life.
Clotho spun the thread.
Lachesis measured.
Atropos cut the thread ending the lifespan. The whole idea that fate/destiny controls our very movements...well I'm not quite sure I believe it personally but it is an interesting topic to think and talk about regardless.
