🏹ARTEMIS — THE HUNTRESS OF THE WILD

🏹ARTEMIS — THE HUNTRESS OF THE WILD Enter the sacred wilderness of ancient Greece, where silver arrows pierce the silence, ancient forests hide divine secrets, and the footsteps of a goddess echo beneath the trees. Artemis, daughter of Zeus and Leto, twin sister of Apollo, is the mighty goddess of the hunt and protector of the wild. Armed with her silver bow, accompanied by her hunting dogs and surrounded by untamed nature, she answers to no king and accepts no chains. This epic symphonic metal anthem tells her story in her own voice — from her birth on Delos and her choice of eternal freedom to the terrible punishment of Actaeon and the vengeance she shares with Apollo against Niobe. She is a guardian of the young, a mistress of the wilderness, and a divine huntress whose arrows bring swift punishment to those who cross her path. She does not seek a throne. She does not bow to kings. She belongs to the wild. 🏹ABOUT ARTEMIS — GREEK MYTHOLOGY Artemis is one of the major Olympian goddesses in Greek mythology: Daughter of Zeus and Leto, twin sister of Apollo.
