Daedala to Dentil Molding Deo to Dysnomia
The original goddess of Fate; in later myths she was replaced by three goddesses called the Moirai: Klotho (Clotho), Lakhesis (Lachesis) and Atropos.
Klotho spins the thread of life; Lakhesis determines the length of the thread; Atropos cuts the thread when the proper time has come for death.
Her name is usually translated as Moira.
