Every year, around the middle of February, the Goddess of love selects seven people to become her priestesses on Earth. Why seven? It's because her tradition has seven aspects of love. One of the seven is storge, or familial love. Love between parents and children, love between siblings, and other relations. It's a love made from the bond of blood, of those who you depend on. Because of this, most often a mother with a small child will be chosen. This year, Elyssa was the lucky recipient and has been made over in the traditional image.
This lovely rendition is brought to you by luthien_nightwolf. Every month she does a themed ych, and this month was "Love Goddesses" based on the seven classical types of love. If you want to see the other six goddesses/priestesses, go and visit her!
