Description
From Greek Mythology, Salmacis was a naiad who fell in love with Hermaphroditus, the son of Hermes and Aphrodite. I chose the water element for her because the story of her love revolved around the lake/pool she captured him in.This piece was made for Chronicle 8 : Elements at neosynthesis.net
