Weapons and myths

[ex nihilo]

Reading this thread made me want to try my hand at explaining the names of the Mirage cores myself.

Hope I don't make anyone angry by doing this, so here goes nothing...

SELENA- misinterpretation of Selene, goddess of the moon in Greek mythology. She was the daughter of the Titans Hyperion and Theia, and the sister of Helios, god of the sun. She fell in love with a handsome shepherd named Endymion, and lulled him to eternal slumber so he could never leave her.

URANUS- the god of the heavens and husband of Gaea, who personified the earth. He was the father of the Titans, the Cyclopes, and the 100-handed giants. The Titans, led by Cronus, then dethroned and castrated him. His dripping blood turned into the Erinyes, of Furies, who avenged crimes of patricide and perjury, while his severed genitals fell into the ocean and from them came AAphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty.

I'll do the rest another time. It's hard to stay awake at 2 a.m.
