Dating ET's
Hi, this is Rayne and I'm back as co-admin of She Wolf Night. I want to start off by posting something light hearted and weird. Dating Extra Terrestrials! I know but it's my first ever post for 16 months on this blog, and I often write out there stuff. I couldn't post this on my second blog Storm Valkyrie, which is basically about spiritual matters and Mother Nature. I copied and pasted this from my entry on Quora, which has become buried under the piles of posts.
In the Star Trek universe, there are so many inter galactic relationships even though Captain Janeway had a go at Harry Kim for having sex with an alien. The discussion centred around sex with aliens introducing a disease or cause terrible damage on DNA. It’s a protocol ignored by the entire Star Treks.
Aliens would come from a different world culture. If you were going out with a Klingon, you may have to respect their traits even though it comes across as strange. If you wanted to date a human/humanoid alien from a different world (like Arda from the “Lord of the Rings” world or Planetos from “A Song of Ice and Fire” world) then no reason why precautions shouldn’t still be taken. Who knows what DNA will be passed if someone ended up starting a family with an alien.

News on the blog
Wolf Girl Night here.
I've returned from holiday and had a howling of a time.
While gone, I was thinking of opening a different blog under another name, and handing this one over to the original owner, and then I asked. She said that she's fine with that.
So in the following few days or weeks, the blog will be returned to Rayne. I will keep you posted as to what my new blog is when its ready.
I've enjoyed posting on here for over a year now and I've been filling the blog with film reviews most of the time. Before that it was neither about film reviews or werewolves, but about myths and some of her own creative writing. I made it into a werewolf/film review blog.
Howls ^^

Robots in Greek myth
![]() |
| Silver and gold dogs with the daughter of King Alcinous |
The animated sci-fi series Ulysses 31 is based on Greek mythology but set in the far distant future, when characters are space travelling and there are plenty of robots. It wasn't quite far off from real Greek mythology, as there are a load of robots in there!
Robots are also automatons and the word Automaton comes from Greek and actually by Homer. The Greek god named Haphaestus was a fire god as well as a metal worker and a blacksmith. He created tools and weapons and many robotics, which include:
Golden Tripods that were automatically moved around Olympus on wheels.
Kyon Khryseos was a dog made entirely of gold and was a robot who guarded Zeus during his childhood on Crete. When Zeus reached adulthood, he sent the golden dog into the stars that became the constellation Canis Major.
Bronze bulls at the kingdom of Aeetes.
Fire breathing mechanical horses that were called the Cabeirian.
Khryseos and Argyeos The metallic guard dogs of the palace of King Alcinous. One dog was made of solid silver and the other dog was made of solid gold.
Talos, made of bronze. A giant crafted into the shape of a man who was the protector of Crete.
Kourai Khrysai who were also called The Golden Maidens of Haphaestus. They were beautiful and each had their own intelligence. They were helpers in the palace of their maker and learned various crafts and skills.
The Caledones more women robots. Originally they were created as golden statues, then given voices and the ability of movement. As life was given to each of them, the Caledones were then capable of breeding with humans.
Pandora was interpreted as the "first woman" but she was really one of the automatons in Greek myth. She was a beautiful robot who was crafted by Haphaestus. Pandora was made the owner of a weapon in the shape of a jar that was later called "Pandora's Box".
