sunshine_challenge | Sunshine 2021: Prompt Three

Check out the Master List to find links to all of the 2021 challenge posts. Remember that there is no official deadline, so feel free to join in at any time or go back and do any prompts you've missed!

If you are inspired to answer with art, vid, or other media, we’d love for you to share what you created. If you create any fanworks, feel free to add them to our AO3 Collection.

Prompt 3: Hecate
Otherworldly and mysterious, Hecate is best known for her association with magic, ghosts, and the night. If you hear the baying of hounds in the dark, she's likely near as they were ever at her side. She is traditionally depicted as bearing two torches to light her way or as a triple goddess of the crossroads. In mythology she is known for helping Demeter search for her daughter Persephone, a theme that ties her even more to the Underworld and spirits she is associated with. Today she is often considered a representative of those liminal places where reality bends and all manner of events may unfold...

Bonus Prompt: Sphinx of Thebes

Please feel free to respond in whichever way comes naturally to you, be it thoughts that you share or a work that you create. If you’d like a more specific idea to kick things off: share a novel or podfic that reminds you of the Hecate theme.

I did a moodboard for the Sphinx and have a quartet of classic riddles.

I talk a little bit about my taste in podworks in the eerie/horror/suspense genre but welcome anyone with recs along the lines of "Alice Isn't Dead" and "The Magnus Archives" and "I am in Eskew."

This is wonderful!

I got this one finished over here! I give a few self-recs for my own fanfiction, give quite a few book recommendations as well, and I talk about video games and link some art just for good measure.

Excellent post! Thanks for joining us!

I am *right there with you* on an art piece I'm supposed to be working on ... I know what I want to do, but I cannot seem to get myself to jsut do it. Glad you managed to get yours done!
