[edit] Greek Mythology
The three Sisters of Fate in Greek myth, Lahkesis, Atropos, and Clotho, determined the fates of every mortal, God, and Titan. One weaves the Threads of Fate, one "embelishes" the threads, and one cuts the threads however they were not stronger or more powerful than Zeus or Gaia.
[edit] In God of War II
In God of War II, in order to use the Loom to change his past, Kratos must battle the Three Sisters of Fate that are defending it, frightened that Kratos will bring doom to the world should he use it. Lahkesis confronts Kratos alone trying to kill him using a combination of melee attacks and magic with the use of her staff. When bested by Kratos, Lahkesis summons her sister Atropos from within a mirror. Atropos carries Kratos through the mirror back to the time when Kratos fought Ares. She threatens that she could kill Kratos in the past by destroying the sword he used to kill Ares. Kratos defeats Atropos, bringing him back to Lahkesis' throne room. Both Lahkesis and Atropos fight against Kratos. He defeats them by throwing them into one of their inter-dimensional mirrors, and then destroying it, trapping them forever in a void between realms. The final sister, Clotho, awaits Kratos in the Loom Chamber beyond. While Kratos makes his way to her head he disables five of her smaller arms blocking his way up. Once at the top level, he disables her two main arms, giving him time to bring up a giant swinging blade. With this blade he impales Clotho through her head killing the last of the Sisters of Fate, granting him the power to change the past and Time control.
