mythology family ♥︎ dolya for @ladyeowyn

the dolya are slavic goddesses of fate, personifications of the fate bestowed upon a man at birth. they are described as a plainly dressed women able to turn themselves into various shapes. when the goddess is positive she is named dolya, when negative she turns into nedolya. the good dolya protects her favourite day and night, serving him faithfully from birth to death; she takes care of his health and wealth, protects his offspring and makes his properties blossom. the evil nedolya neglects the man to whom she is assigned, and thinks only for herself. it is considered impossible to get rid of dolya, either the good or evil version.
