Jaxen's thread of wiki stuff

Will do.

The River of Forgetfulness and the River of Oblivion were known to be found in the world of dreams.

Uh, those two rivers are one and the same. Are you thinking of another underworld river?

I think it was Ovid who added a parallel river that ran alongside Lethe (Mnemosyne/memory), but Mnemosyne herself was a titan goddess rather than the personification of a river. Zeus never really punished the lady titans so she wasn't in Tartarus, and she was the mother of the 9 muses with Zeus so I assumed wasn't a member of Hades court. For my purposes I have assumed that Lethe had a dual function and that accounts for it. She could take away memory but also bring it back, and did so as Lethe as a form of torture. Since Lethe and her exploits were never remembered in myth, that side of her ability was forgotten. Or maybe it was never widely known in the first place. Either way, it was wrongly attributed to another memory goddess in the myths.

Nimeda used this ability on Soren in the dream with his kid, the one Thalia had when she was unconscious on the rocks. She used the nightmares she has seen him have to dredge up memories of an old death. Some of the drawings on the cabin's bathroom wall depict things reminiscent of Ragnarok. None of the characters went in there so I never mentioned it explicitly, ha.

Interestingly, there's also an account that drinking from both rivers has an association with prophecy. I should probably update Lethe's page.

If you're meaning another river though, let me know which one. I'll just add as is for now.

edit - also, I assume this replaces Morpheus's current page and is not an addition, since some of the info is duplicated.

It’s an update. 

And uhh. I thought they were different rivers. Clearly that’s wrong.
