Nymph
A nymph (Greek: νύμφη, nymphē) in Greek mythology and in Latin mythology is a minor female nature deity typically associated with a particular location or landform. Different from other goddesses, nymphs are generally regarded as divine spirits who animate nature, and are usually depicted as beautiful, young nubile maidens who love to dance and sing; their amorous freedom sets them apart from the restricted and chaste wives and daughters of the Greek polis. They are beloved by many and dwell in mountainous regions and forests by lakes and streams. Although they would never die of old age nor illness, and could give birth to fully immortal children if mated to a god, they themselves were not necessarily immortal, and could be beholden to death in various forms. Charybdis and Scylla were once nymphs.
Other nymphs, always in the shape of young maidens, were part of the retinue of a god, such as Dionysus, Hermes, or Pan, or a goddess, generally the huntress Artemis. Nymphs were the frequent target of satyrs.
Nymphs (Finnish TV series)
Nymphs (aka Nymfit) is a Finnish fantasy-drama television series. The series is based on Greek mythology as the beautiful and immortal nymphs are living in a modern-day Helsinki. The nymphs need to have sex once a month in order to stay alive and run away from satyrs that persecute them.
Gummerus is publishing Nymfit as a book series. The first part of the book was written by Sari Luhtanen and Miikko Oikkonen and was titled Nymfit – Montpellierin legenda (Nymphs – The Legend of Montpellier). The Finnish version of the book was published August 29, 2013 in Finland. The translation rights have already been sold to United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Russia and Brazil.

Nymphs
by: Minuitif you had to be hunted down, would it be by the nymphs
who made you laugh or the ones who taught you truth
mister, pullover she knows what you’ve done, she sits on
her hands while the memories come
she turns her head slowly and watches you walk
she watches you walk
she watches you
if you are the one
