According to some Greek articles, Chaos did not exist and Nyx was the first divine Entity, promoting her power and importance even more. Her son Moros (Doom) is mysterious as well and is believed to be omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent, as he drives all things to their ends. One example is that the Fates, her daughters serve her. Recently featured: The Quest for Thanatos | Satyr | Nico di Angelo | The Mark of Athena | The House of Hades
