Cupid and Psyche by Benjamin West

Psyche was the goddess of soul and the consort of Eros in Greco-Roman mythology.

Influence

After imbibing lotus flower wine, Barnabas had three visions concerning his wife Leda. In one of these, he swore that Psyche showed him Leda drinking wine with a witch.[1]

In 2012 Clay Kaczmarek included the story of Psyche and Cupid in a set of puzzles he'd hidden within the Animus for his follower to find. In Clay's puzzle it was suggested that Psyche's story was one of those in which "the seeds were planted as two worlds became one."[2] In a former puzzle, Psyche was excluded from a list of individuals known to have possessed an Apple of Eden.[3]

Behind the scenes

Psyche is a mythological figure and a character introduced in Assassin's Creed II in the Glyph puzzles. She is also mentioned in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey.

Ψυχή (psūkhḗ) is Greek for 'soul'. Her name has been loaned into multiple language to denote consciousness.
