Quote of the Patch[]
ā | Some writers identify three of [the Erinyes], whom they name Alecto, Tisiphone, and Megaera, but they are usually neither named nor counted. They were described by Aeschylus as frighteningly hideous, but were seldom shown so in art. | ā |

Note: You should see v0.23759 in-game once you have the update.
