She just so happens to be in the same reflection world. Not weird at all, right? She is, by far, more flattering to Rand than anyone else at any point in his life. Women in this world will call men everything but smart - yet here she is fawning over the supposed wisdom of this wool headed lummox.
She says things that remind him of things Morraine or Egwene would say. She was WEIRDLY calm during the grolm attacks. She seemed really certain that Rand could use the stone to get them out. And to top it off, she's so hot that even an Ogier describes her as "physical perfection"?
To quote a wise hobbit, "I think a servant of The Enemy would look fairer and feel fouler".
This chick is way too fair to not be foul.
I know, I know...RAFO.
If she had been alive today she would totally been on name nerds haha.
Go Cleo, I love your melodramatic taste in names. They are actually pretty cute for a sib set tbh.
Would y'all ever name your twins Helios and Selene? Or is it a bit too extra?
How does Rand not find it suspicious that Selene knows with certainty what lives in the alternate world and even knows what Grolm are called? He literally does not give it a second thought. Knowing who she is this is a very suspicious moment, and I would think sheโd be smart enough to not reveal knowledge that she should not have when disguising her identity.
Does anyone disagree? If so, maybe you should load Selene up on your stereo and listen again... :)
While every other gen right now has made it clear who the canon protagonist is one way or another, Elio and Selene are treated differently.
First off, there's the fact that they both have the same home life. In "Trials on the Island," Elio says he moved to Alola and has a Meowth at home. In the Pokemon Center, he says he admired the Elite Four and Gym Leaders from Kanto before he moved to Alola.
Meanwhile, in the Pokemon Center, Selene says very clearly '"We brought Meowth with us from Kanto when we moved to Alola." Further, both talk about taking the trials.
To add to the confusion, while Elio says that he and his friends helped Lillie, Lillie refers to the trainer who she gave Nebby to as a gender-neutral "They." While this doesn't support them being twins, it does make it very clear that DeNa isn't pushing Elio or Selene as the clear protagonist.
Basically, while every other gen has a protag and either a Rival-friend (like May and Calem) or just someone who was also from the region but not relevant to the plot (like Hilda), I'm under the impression that Elio and Selene are twins who went through the events of Sun and Moon together.

Thanks to everyone who responded! After much discussion, we settled on Selene Genesis! She was born on January 17th, 2022 in the night (I'm still exhausted but it was worth it!). Thanks again to everyone who commented and made suggestions!
After doing some research I believe the maiden-mother-crone triple goddess has a male equivalent.
Dionysus/Bacchus is the male equivalent of the maiden: In later depictions he was always depicted as a young man. Party animal. Drinker. Psychoactive substances. He's Young, Wild and Free as most young men are.
Zeus/Jupiter: King of the Olympians and defeater of the titans. The one all the greeks and romans paid the reverence to. Noticeably potent with his seed and impregnates multiple women. The father. Also one of Zeus's epithets was Zeus-Heliopolitous which was synchronizing him with the sun god Helios. This parallels the mother the being the moon (Selene) while the sun is the father.
Hades/Pluto: Old age and of course death. The male equivalent of the crone.
This is from the wikipedia page on Jupiter under the subheading "Liber" who was just another name for Dionysus:
Iuppiter was associated with Liber through his epithet of Liber (association not yet been fully explained by scholars, due to the scarcity of early documentation). In the past, it was maintained that Liber was only a progressively-detached hypostasis of Jupiter; consequently, the vintage festivals were to be attributed only to Iuppiter Liber. Such a hypothesis was rejected as groundless by Wissowa, although he was a supporter of Liber's Jovian origin. Olivier de Cazanove contends that it is difficult to admit that Liber (who is present in the oldest calendarsโthose of Numaโin the Liberalia and in the month of Liber at Lavinium) was derived from another deity. Such a derivation would find support only in epigraphic documents, primarily from the Osco-Sabellic area. Wissowa sets the position of Iuppiter Liber within the framework of an agrarian Jupiter. The god also had a temple in this name on the Aventine in Rome, which was restored by Augustus and dedicated on September 1. Here, the god was sometimes named Liber and sometimes Libertas. Wissowa opines that the relationship existed in the concept of creative abundance through which the supposedly-separate Liber might have been connected to the Greek god Dionysos, although both deities might not have been originally related to viticulture.
And this comes from the Dionysus page under the subheading of Hades:
*The fifthโfourth century BC philosopher Heraclitus, unifying opposites, declared that Hades and Dionysus, the very essence of indestructible life (zoรซ), are the same god. Among other evidence, Karl Kerรฉnyi notes in h

You guys think we're gonna be introduced to Selene's other "sons"? Kurnugi is deceased however I am still curious to see how he looks like and who his father is. I don't understand why the fandom page says all her sons are "deceased" when there is litterally zero evidence to back that up. The only exception being Kurnugi.
Off topic:
Hoping we some how see George Rizen revived even if its temporary since I really wanna see his magic power. Thought Kirin's coffin contained his body a while ago. Not to mention of his power is 4 best dragon slaying magic then he should have the power of a phoenix/vermilion bird which is know to revive.

My all time favourite sci-fi protagonist in films was always Ripley no contest. Selene kinda makes me feel the same way as Ripley in Aliens. Iโm obsessed with this game! ๐
We fell in love with Selene during our search for an honor name for my late MIL. It is after her favorite flower! I am wondering if Selene Lily flows well together.
We have been playing with it a little bit and tried Lily Selene, I prefer the flow of Lily Selene, but with especially our last name Lily seems too common.
I have been thinking maybe using another variant of Lily for the middle like maybe Lillian / Lilliana / Lillia
Opinions on the flow or preferred order of the name? Last name is one syllable common name like Brown / Smith etc.

Let's say Selene who user plays is the N-th Selene.
We saw N-th Selene destroys (N+1)th Selene.
From this, we can deduce (N-1)th Selene also destroyed N-th Selene.
So, we play N-th Selene, and we got shot by (N-1)th Selene, but we also shoot (N+1)th Selene.
If we expand this idea, we can deduce countless Selenes are stuck in this cycles.
...(N-2)th...(N-1)th...N-th...(N+1)th...(N+2)th...
It means even before the fall of alien civilization, Selene was still trapped in the cycles on Atropos.
That's why the sentients worshipped her as a creator/destroyer and left Xenoglyphs about her.
Because every century, a new Selene visits Atropos and kills the hostile!
In other words, Selene would have been seen as a god or ancient being for the sentients.

>Selene: Did you learn this melody from me, or did I learn it from you?
This explanation can solve the question how Hyperion knew the song, "Don't fear the Reaper."
Because (N-ฮฑ)th Selene taught him the song!
