Day personified, daughter of Nyx and Erebus and the shining counterpart to her mother Night.1
I
Night conceived by Erebus and bore Aether and Hemera. In Hesiod's first genealogy, daylight is born directly from darkness, paired with the bright upper air.2⚖
II
In the Latin genealogy of Hyginus, Dies is sister rather than daughter to Nox and Erebus. Born from Chaos and Caligo beside Aether, she later joins with Aether to produce Earth, Heaven and Sea.3⚖
