Theia
Theia was the Titan goddess of sight and the embodiment of the gentle clarity of the daytime sky. Her domain encompassed not just the sharp focus of vision, but also the vast expanse of the blue heavens. She represented the duality of light – the focused beam that grants sight and the all-encompassing radiance that bathes the world.

Helius (the Sun), Eos (the Dawn), and Selene (the Moon) – all bore the mark of their mother’s domain. Their brilliance, warmth, and the very concept of illumination stemmed from Theia’s essence. She became a cosmic embodiment of light, not just in its physical manifestation, but also in its metaphorical sense, representing knowledge, truth, and the divine spark that illuminated the world.
