MYTHOLOGY MEME :  ten goddesses → sedna

       Sedna was the Inuit goddess of the sea, the creatures that inhabit it, and the underworld. She was once a beautiful maiden, but was sacrificed to the sea. Though greatly feared, she was sought by Shamans so she would release seals for hunting. She rules over all sea life, and decides the fate of, not only the creatures, but the people who hunt them. If one does not make a prayer to Sedna before heading out to hunt, they are destined to fall by her hand. According to one myth, she resides in Adlivun in an impenetrable ice castle where she spends her days amongst the whales and other sea creatures.
