Eos was one of the Titans, and she represented the dawn. Every morning, she opened the gates of heaven so that Helios (the Sun) could rise. Both of her sons by the mortal Tithonus, Memnon and Emathion, were killed by mythic heroes (Achilles and Herakles).

Status of Set 8

Note: This card was never printed. The final version from the design team has been spoiled to players on the Anachronism forums. There's no telling whether or not this card will be printed, and if it were, that it'd have the same text as the spoiled version.

As is, one will notice missing elements, since the card hasn't been finished. There's no artist or flavor text; ability titles are English, rather than Amheric.
