EOS the dawn goddess gets a BAD rap in Greek literature labelled as being a pederastic cougar chasing and stealing boytoys. I rather suspect though there were older myths speaking of her as a spirit carrying off souls.
Actual depictions of her often look more like an annoyed mother chasing naughty teens.
I wonder if the original "moral" of stories about Eos was if you misbehave and stay up partying all night EOS will take you ?
