In Norse mythology, the goddess Freya had two children: a daughter named Hnoss and a son named Gersemi. Both children are often associated with beauty and wealth, reflecting Freya's own attributes.

Instead, her role is more aligned with comfort and relief, rather than warfare or combat. In mythology, she represents the healing powers of water and is often linked to the soothing aspects of nature rather than martial attributes.

The Pantheon in Rome is one of the earliest domed buildings and contained the Roman Gods. It has an occulass in the center of the dome. Today you can visit it, but the statues of the gods are no longer inside. Instead the Catholic Church has replaced them with religious paintings and figures.
