Origin[]
Eirene or Irene, more commonly known in English as Peace, is one of the Horae, the personification and goddess of peace in Greek mythology and ancient religion. She was depicted in art as a beautiful young woman carrying a cornucopia, sceptre, and a torch or rhyton. She is usually said to be the daughter of Zeus and Themis and thus sister of Dike and Eunomia. Her Roman equivalent is the goddess Pax.
Effects[]
Promotes feelings of peace, fraternity and docileness. Conjunction with another object such as a weapon will nullify all actions of harm it would normally be capable of while within the same area. For this reason, it is kept within the Hall of Hate and Peace to maintain order among the heavily volatile artifacts.
