History:
Eirene - Goddess of Peace and Wealth as well as of Spring. Late spring was the usual campaign season in Greece when peace was most at risk. Eirene is one of the 3 Horai together with her sisters Eunomia (Goddess of Order and Good Pasture) and Dike (Goddess of Justice). Their parents are Zeus and Themis.
In classical art she usually appears in the company of her two sister Horai bearing the fruits of the seasons. As a statue Eirene was represented as a maiden holding the infant Ploutos (God of Wealth) in her arms. Eirene's oppose and great enemy are Ares and Polemos.
After the victory of Timotheus over the Lacedaemonians, altars were erected to her at Athens at the public expense. Her statue at Athens stood by the side of that of Amphiaraus, carrying in its arms Plutus (God of Wealth) and another stood near that of Hestia in the Prytaneion. At Rome too, where peace (Pax) was worshipped, she had a magnificent temple, which was built by the emperor Vespasian.
The figure of Eirene or Pax occurs only on coins, and she is there represented as a youthful female, holding in her left arm a cornucopia and in her right hand an olive branch or the staff of Hermes. Sometimes also she appears in the act of burning a pile of arms, or carrying corn-ears in her hand or upon her head.

Rp Sample: ---
It has been a difficult day. Eirene was too tired to stay at Olympus and be part of it everyday intrigues. She wanted to escape from that chaos and therefore came to Santorini where she knew she was always welcome. After all it was her island.
She silently sat at the highest point of the Main Island watching the sunset.
It's as beautiful and relaxing as it was when I was still a child she thought to herself. Eirene sat for a long time there meditating when she suddenly herd a noise somwhere behind her. It was already dark.
"Who's there?" she asked. No reply. She got up to see what was going on although she could not see much since the sun was already set and the moon did not appear yet. As she walked she nearly tripped over a basket full of fruits and berries with a note on it that said "For Eirene from ..."
I wonder who that is she thought to herself. The temptation was great but she could not try any of the content of the basket.
Does someone wish me harm or good? she had to find out.
