| The goddess Demeter, like Artemis and Hestia, surrounds herself only with women. The women surrounding Demeter and Persephone are known as nymphs. Demeter asked Hephaestus to craft sacred armor for them to wear when venturing out or defending her domain; however, as men looked unfavorably upon female warriors, the god of the forge cast an illusion spell on the suits of armor, making the nymphs appear as men. |
