thewinedarksea:Mythology Aesthetics → AsteriaAsteria was a Titan goddess, daughter of the Titans Coeus and Phoebe, and sister of Leto. She was married to the Titan Perses, and had a daughter, Hecate. Zeus pursued her, but Asteria instead turned into a quail and fell into the Aegean to escape. As a result, she transformed into Ortygia, the quail island, which was later linked to the island of Delos. -- source link
