Lampetia -
In Greek mythology, Lampetia (Λαμπετίη or Λαμπετία)
(English translation: "shining") was the daughter of Helios and Neaera; she was the personification of light. With her sister, Phaethusa, she guarded the cattle of Thrinacia. She told her father when Odysseus' men slaughtered some ...of his cattle which were ageless and deathless, like a forbidden fruit. They also happened to be his children. Her father, Helios, was enraged and asked the gods to avenge his cattle's deaths. Zeus then sent a lightning bolt down and a storm, killing all of Odysseus' men, while their doom was portended by the meat writhing and lowing on the spits.[1]

Companions of Hecate, the Greek titan goddess of Witchcraft and crossroads, they were a gift from Zeus for Hecate's loyalty in the Titanomachy. They bear torches and accompany Hecate on her night-time travels and hauntings. Some accounts tell of how the ...light of the Lampades' torches has the power to drive one to madness.The lampades were probably the daughters of various Underworld gods, Daimones, River gods, or nyx.The lampades' Roman name is Nymphae Avernales.
