| Description |
Unabashedly sexual, this lovely woman wears
nothing more than a necklace. Centuries ago,
some mourners left her as a grave offering, a
joyous tribute to the pleasures of life. She is
spiritual kin to the goddess Astarte and Venus,
an acknowledgement of life's essential forces.
Her power is timeless, eternal. For as long as
civilization exists, her charms will have meaning.
- (PF.1322)
