Volume 16 HC cover misprint
The cover of Girl Genius graphic novel volume 16, The Incorruptible Library, was misprinted. The title of the previous volume (The City of Lightning) is on the front cover instead of the actual title.
During her weekly TwitchTV streaming session (as ProfessoressaFoglio) yesterday, Wednesday, June 3, Kaja explained that this happened because she starts with the previous cover image and updates each element until she has transformed it into the cover for the next volume, but this time she missed a step.
You can see that the title on the spine of the book is correct in the second photo. This error was only present on the original first-edition, puffy, hardcover version of this book. The softcover edition cover was corrected.
PRENDE // ALBANIAN GODDESS OF THE DAWN, LOVE, BEAUTY, FERTILITY & HEALTH
“She is the dawn goddess, goddess of love, beauty, fertility, health and protector of women, in the Albanian pagan mythology. She is referred to as Zoja Prenne or Zoja e Bukuris ("Goddess/Lady Prenne" or "Goddess/Lady of Beauty"). Her sacred day is Friday, named in Albanian after her. She reflects features belonging to the original Indo-European dawn goddess. A remarkable reflection associated with the Indo-European dawn goddess is the Albanian tradition according to which Prende is the daughter of the sky god – Zojz. Thought to have been worshiped by the Illyrians in antiquity, Prende is identified with the cult of Venus and she was worshipped in northern Albania, especially by the Albanian women, until recent times. She was so popular in Albania that over one in eight of the Catholic churches existing in the late 16th and the early 17th centuries were named after her. Many other historical Catholic and Orthodox churches were dedicated to her in the 18th and 19th centuries.”

Lady Prenne.
Prende
Prende or Premte is the goddess of dawn, love, beauty, fertility, health and protector of women, in the Albanian pagan mythology. She is also called Afër-dita, an Albanian phrase meaning "near day", "the day is near", or "dawn", in association with the cult of the planet Venus, the morning and evening star. Her sacred day is Friday, named in Albanian after her: e premte, premtja (Gheg Albanian: e prende, prendja). In Albanian mythology Prende appears as the daughter of Zojz, the Albanian sky and lighning god.
I am *certain* that this has been discussed by people better qualified than myself; I've barely started this research. If anyone knows of articles or essays that talk about this better, please share them with me! But I wanted to talk a bit about the Proto Indo European Dawn Goddess [1]:
PIE H₂éwsōs, Goddess of the Dawn
Vedic Ushas, Goddess of the Dawn
Greek Eos, Goddess and Personification of the Dawn
Roman Aurōra, Goddess of the Dawn
Slavic Zorya, Personification of the Dawn
Lithuanian Aušrinė, Goddess of the Dawn or the Morning Star (Venus): "goddess of beauty, love and youth, linked with health, re-birth and new beginnings" [2]
Albanian Prende/Premte, "goddess of dawn, love, beauty, fertility, health and protector of women" [3]
But then also...
West Germanic Ēostre, Goddess of Spring and namesake of Easter [4]
And maybe even the Greek Persephone, Goddess of Spring and the Underworld, whose name might relate to the Albanian Prende [3]
The key to tying together the Goddesses of Dawn and the Goddesses of Spring lies, I think, in that Lithuanian definition: "linked with health, re-birth and new beginnings." We can think of Dawn, Day, Twilight, Night as equivalent to Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter... and even the Waxing, Full, Waning, and New Moon. These are all cycles of beginnings and endings--arguably all a way for us to cope with our understanding of life and death.
In a journal entry several months ago, I noted that I'm not that fond of the dawn; I'm not a morning person (sorry, H₂éwsōs). But I *am* a fond of fresh starts, rebirth, and new beginnings. I know all the best albums for breaking up and moving on. I have endless Playlists for it. I know how to restart far better than I know how to stay. I know the Waxing Spring Dawn, Waning Fall Twilight, and New Winter Night far better than I know the Full Summer Day.
I've joked recently that Persephone is mad at me because the weather hasn't been good to me since I've moved. But perhaps I simply haven't been honoring her enough--recognizing that as I have been experiencing a rebirth these past two years, she's been the one in charge of that. Maybe she's been my intuition giving me warnings that I've ignored.
In any case... though it's a full moon tonight (and a supermoon at that!), I would like to take a moment to toast to the power and energy of a fresh start--a new day, a new month, a new season, a new love. I am becoming brand new, and if there is a higher power behind that, I thank them.
