What is a "Fury"?
In Greek mythology, a Fury is one of three female deities known as the Erinyes, who are associated with vengeance and justice. The Furies are often depicted as terrifying, winged figures with serpents for hair and eyes that weep blood. They are tasked with pursuing and punishing wrongdoers, particularly those who have committed serious crimes like murder or offenses against family members. The Furies embody the concepts of retribution and moral order, ensuring that justice is served and that wrongs are righted. They are known for their relentless pursuit of those who have violated ethical or legal codes.
