A rustling sound comes from within the forest that could just be the wind, or just your imagination? All at once, the branches sway aside to reveal a large set of antlers poking out from behind the brush. You hear a low snort, and then a stag emerges from the woods. On it's back is a stunning raven-haired maiden with skin that glows like marble.
The woman gracefully launches herself off the deer like a gymnast to stand before you. Strips of silvery linen artfully wrap around her body, accentuating her musculature. A hunting bow rests against her back.
It is Artemis, goddess of the hunt and protector of young women.
She grabs her bow, her silver ring clinking against its surface, "Accept what I can offer and I can grant you protection as a fellow woman, love for animals and safety in childbirth."
So, will you take it?
