the three fates in norse mythology

[B00]

Only know of the Greek fates.

The three Greek Goddesses of Destiny and Fate.
Otherwise known as the Moirae, these timeless old hags weave the threads of destiny that control your life. The original spin doctors.

They are: CLOTHO who spins the Thread of Life, LACHESIS who allots the length of the yarn, and ATROPOS who does the snip (the final one).

Hope this helps
