Last fall I purchased a spirit stone (class 4 or 5 from CH) with the Graces (Aglaia, Euphrosyne, and Thalia) daughters of Zues and Eurynome, and attendants to Aphrodite.
I have been looking for some info on them and haven't been able to find any info. Can anyone help please?

Also called the "Charities"
Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charites
From Wiki:
"In Greek mythology, a Charis is one of several Charites (ΧάÏιτες; Greek: "Graces"), goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity and fertility. They ordinarily numbered three, from youngest to oldest: Aglaea ("Beauty"), Euphrosyne ("Mirth"), and Thalia ("Good Cheer"). In Roman mythology they were known as the Gratiae, the "Three Graces."
The Charites were usually considered the daughters of Zeus and Eurynome, though they were also said to be daughters of Dionysus and Aphrodite or of Helios and the naiad Aegle. Homer wrote that they were part of the retinue of Aphrodite. The Charites were also associated with the underworld and the Eleusinian Mysteries.
The river Cephissus near Delphi was sacred to them."

If everyone cared and nobody cried,
If everyone loved and nobody lied,
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride,
Then we'd see the day when nobody died.

Thank you for this Alex!
I have also heard that the graces were Aphrodite's attendants. I rec'd Aphrodite (spirit stone) as part of the Treasure Hunt, before I knew about the graces I had place Aphrodite in the keeping box with them. I keep them with dried rose petals and dried lavender, along with several cut polished gemstones.
