Earth to Elysian Fields Emathia to Eretria Erginos to Eulimene Eumaios to Exomis
Goddess of Hate; the sister and companion of the brutal war god, Ares.
Her wrath is unyielding; in the tenth year of the siege of the city of Troy, Zeus sent Erida to the encampment of the Akhaians (Achaeans); when she stood on the centermost of the beached vessels at sunrise and screamed, the soldiers rose from their beds with the hateful voice of Erida ringing in their ears; their hearts were hardened and they longed for the sweetness of battle.
For more detailed information on Erida I suggest that you consult the Immortals section.
