Healed by lightning…
I’m not sure I’ve written about the time I died fighting beast and man in a struggle to win the love of a Goddess. I suffered a fatal wound and as I faded slowly, the Goddess for which I’d fought sacrificed her deity existence. And, once she’d assumed her mortal state, plunged the claw of a polar bear, who had fallen by my own hand, through her throat so as to die beside me. Unable to restore the Goddess as she had perished by her own hand and blaming me for her death, Zeus, the God of Gods, resurrected me with a lightning bolt and cast up on me the curse of immortality so I would suffer for infinity without my one true love.
It is this story that inspired Maï Lamore’s lightning bolt heeled spikes.
