The Sirens were young and beautiful bird-woman in Greek Mythology who lured sailors onto the rocks to their death with their enchanting voices. They are most famous for being in Homer's Odyssey where they tried to lure Odysseus on his way home from Troy. He made ear plugs for his crew with beewax and told his crew to tie him to the mast of the ship. when Odysseus begged his crew to let him down they could not hear him.

The Fates were three goddesses who controlled the thread of life of every mortal from birth to death. There names were:

Clotho: She spun the thread of life from her onto her spindle.

Lachesis: She measured the thread of life with her rod, deterimining how long someone was to live.

Atropos: She was the cutter of the thread of life. She chose the manner of a person's death. When she cut the thread, someone on Earth died.
