I am not a truNEET anymore... sacrificed my honour by going to university.
I still play 2hu daily, but I also started playing gacha games and going to shooting competitions and working out more.
I'll have a job and a family of my own before I know it.
There's nothing that will stop this inevitable tide, even as much as I'd like to return to those simpler days.
I'll be cast out of the jay for sure some day

Hecatia is the beloved and only daughter of Perses and Asteria, the most beloved caretaker and aunt of the Gods, has dominion over the earth, seas, and skies, can freely travel between the mortal realm and the land of the dead, can bless mortals with good luck and prosperity, can take aforementioned blessings away. In fact, Hecatia was so great, she was often identified with several other goddesses. As the queen of nature, she would be praised in place of Demeter, as a huntress and protector of youth in place of Artemis, as a goddess of the moon, she was considered a mystic Persephone. She was also connected to the worship of Cabeiri and Curetes and even Apollo and he Muses. In the time of the Greek tragedians, she also became a goddess of the underworld, comforting Persephone in the fall and winter seasons. She has power over the dead, the goddess of purifications and expiations and is accompanied by stygian dogs. Though a virgin goddess, she is the mother of Scylla and as an infernal divinity, she can send from the underworld demons and phantoms, powerful in sorcery and witchcraft, to crossroads, tombs, and the murdered. She is announced by the whining and howling of dogs and may sometimes have the head of a horse, a dog and a lion befitting her monstrosity. She was so popular, Greek households would have small statues before or in the house and at crossroads and people would often consult these statues, the Hecataea as oracles.

As great and powerful as Hecatia is though, she is not the type to tackle a problem head-on. As her name implies, she works from afar. She is a divine, almost mystical goddess and was worshiped for the production of mysteries.

Hesiod's Theogony, an early account of how the ancient Greeks perceived their gods, has this really huge passage just dedicated to Hecate, which relates to us that Hecate was an only child who didn't really fit in anywhere and that Zeus had to go out of his way to make sure that she wasn't bullied by any of the other gods, because she was a Titan (the old gods that were overthrown) and they were all Olympian (the gods that took power). She also never gets laid or has any consorts and is iconographically depict as an unmarried girl doing unmarried girl things. Ancient Greeks would also basically send their own bad vibes her way at the end of each month by sacrificing dogs to her, bringing away pollution from them and letting Hecate take to the otherworld

In Touhou Hecatia has access to the mundane, outside world, and with a history like that, I can understand why she would dress a little tubmlrlike if she could
