TYPE: Messenger goddess
ORIGIN: Kafir [Afghanistan]
INFORMATION: A deity connected and possibly syncretizing with the goddess Disani but who, according to legend, carried vital messages to the heroic god Mon during a primordial battle between gods and giants. Mon lives by a lake surrounded by fire, and the goddess's wings (a solitary inference that she can appear in the form of a bird) are scorched in the process until Mon heals them. In some variations Mon lives in the form of a bull that breathes fire. Also Zhuwut.
