In Greek mythology, Eos ( /ˈiːɒs/; Ancient Greek: Ἠώς, or Ἕως "dawn", pronounced [ɛːɔ̌ːs] or [éɔːs]) is the Titan goddess[Full citation needed] of the dawn, who rose from her home at the edge of Oceanus.
Eos is cognate to Vedic Sanskrit 'Ushas', the goddess of dawn. Also see Dawn goddess
The dawn goddess, Eos with rosy fingers opened the gates of heaven. In Homer, her saffron-coloured robe is embroidered or woven with flowers; rosy-fingered and with golden arms, she is pictured on Attic vases as a beautiful woman, crowned with a tiara or diadem and with the large white-feathered wings of a bird.
From The Iliad:
Quintus Smyrnaeus pictured her exulting in her heart over the radiant horses (Lampos and Phaithon) that drew her chariot, amidst the bright-haired Horae, the feminine Hours, climbing the arc of heaven and scattering sparks of fire.
She is most often associated with her Homeric epithet "rosy-fingered" (rhododactylos), but Homer also calls her Eos Erigeneia:
Hesiod wrote:
Thus Eos, preceded by the Morning Star, is seen as the genetrix of all the stars and planets; her tears are considered to have created the morning dew, personified as Ersa or Herse. Eos is the daughter of Hyperion, a bringer of light, the One Above, Who Travels High Above the Earth and of Theia, The Divine. Her brother was Helios, the Sun god and her sister was Selene, the Moon goddess. Her team of horses pull her chariot across the sky and are named in the Odyssey as Firebright and Daybright.

Plot: In the year of 1996, the Soshiki organisation led by Adel, was crushed by the hands of Eiji, Kayin and Ellis. After the Soshiki's reign of terror, all was thought to end the one-on-one battles. It was all a legend, until now. Now, in the year 2006, Eiji learned of some sacred weapons that could bring him all the power in the world, therefore, corrupting Eiji with an Evil Aura. Eiji then started a team of genetically engineered beings to help him with his idea of becoming an ultimate god. It is up to Eiji's son, Subaru, Kayin's little sister Naru, hopelessly flirtatious Rook Castle, Angel Girl Puella (and who also happens to be the daughter of past Toshinden fighter, Ellis.), Wild boy Fen, Prince Lancelot, Wise seer Genma, Ninja woman Miyabi and great robot Bang Boo to set up their own individual teams to compete with each other, as well as stopping Eiji and his minions (Eos and Zero) from becoming gods as well.

Plot: Cleopatra, the famed Egyptian Queen born in 69 B.C., is shown to have been brought by Roman ruler Julius Caesar at age 18. Caesar becomes sexually obsessed by the 18 year old queen, beds her, and eventually has a son by her. However, his Roman followers and his wife are not pleased by the union. In fact, as Caesar has only a daughter by his wife, he had picked Octavian as his successor. The out-of-wedlock son of Cleopatra is seen to be a threat to his future leadership. Thus Brutus and other Roman legislators plot the assassination of Caesar. Caesar's loyal general, Marc Antony, and Octavian then divide up the Roman empire. Antony takes Egypt and soon takes up the affair with Cleopatra. However, Octavian soon launches an attack on Antony and ultimately defeats and mortally wounds him. Rather than permitting herself to be humiliated by Octavian, Cleopatra sends her son away to India and she commits suicide by permitting the deadly asp to bite her.

It is burning
