Plouto (Oceanid)
In Greek mythology, Plouto or Pluto (Πλουτώ "Wealth") was, according to the late 8th–early 7th century BC Greek poet Hesiod, and the probably nearly as old Homeric Hymn 2 to Demeter, one of the many Oceanid daughters of Oceanus and Tethys.[1] Hesiod calls her "soft eyed", and the Homeric Hymn has her as one of the "deep-bosomed daughters of Oceanus" who were the playmates of Persephone when she was abducted by Hades.
Notes
gollark: There are actually automated tools for that now, which is neat, and firefox has "reader mode".
gollark: ||It reminded me of some short story I read about... well, an automatic poem generator.||
gollark: ||I wonder how well GPT-3-written stuff actually compares to *the majority of* human-written stuff, as opposed to the good stuff most people are going to read.||
gollark: You can also play HyperRogue if you want, well, hyperbolic geometry games, though it's more of a roguelike.
