Isabela: What could go wrong climbing an ancient elven burial site? Nothing at all, I’m sure.

“But, Philip, I conjure thee
Now by these names three,
Diana in the woods green,
Luna that so bright doth shine,
Proserpina in hell,
That thou shortly tell,
And show now unto me
What the cause may be
Of this perplexity!”
John Skelton, An addition to the Book of Philip Sparrow, lines 1362-1370.

“In Europe there were at first no male gods Contemporary with the Goddess to challenge her prestige or power, but she had a lover who was alternatively the beneficent Serpent of Wisdom, and the beneficent Star of Life, her son.... There are as yet no fathers, for the Serpent is no more the father of the Star-Son than the Star-Son is of the Serpent. They are twins and here we are returned to the single poetic Theme.”
Robert Graves, The White Goddess: A Historical Grammar of Poetic Myth, Faber, 1971, p. 387-388.

The Moon-goddess, it must be remembered, had three different aspects, no monogamy. 
Samantha is Artemis tauropole, Isabela is Diana of green grove; Bethany is Persephone.
Although Isabela may attempt shuffling to pregnant dragon role, failure is foredoomed.
Past misunderstandings cannot matter, if mage Merrill should befriend dragon Aveline.
Sundermount earns legitimacy if Isabela leaps to sacrifice a prince & women kill Fenris.

Isabela to Fenris: You elves have such pretty eyes, even the men. 
It makes me want to pluck them out and wear them as a necklace.

“Carnations [Pink] were mentioned in Greek literature 2,000 years ago. ‘Dianthus’ was coined by Greek botanist Theophrastus, and is derived from the Greek words for divine (‘dios’) and flower (‘anthos’). Some scholars believe that the name ‘carnation’ comes from ‘coronation’ or ‘corone’ (flower garlands), as it was one of the flowers used in Greek ceremonial crowns. Others think the name stems from the Latin ‘caro’ (genitive ‘carnis’ (flesh), which refers to the original colour of the flower, or incarnatio (incarnation), which refers to the incarnation of God made flesh. The legend that explains the name is that Diana the Goddess came upon the shepherd boy and took a liking to him. But the boy, for some reason, turned her down. Diana ripped out his eyes and threw them to the ground where they sprouted into the Dianthus flower.”
