That's...a pretty interesting idea for a joke Servant. Think of the possibilities.
Whatever it is, keep Jack away from her.
One poster thought it was this one sword-wielding Viking woman from the Erik the Red saga who was famous for fighting while pregnant, but that doesn't take into account the main Servant is the baby.
Another mentioned the only hero he knew of who did incredible feats as a baby still in his mother's womb was Mwindo, but pointed out the mother clearly isn't African, so it can't be him.
Were there any myths about heroes who were born alongside/with a sword?
I can only think about Huitzilopochtli right now, but that woman is definitely not Coatlicue, she has a more distinctive look
That's why I'm sticking to the Marjatta theory, that woman looks really on point to how she is represent on finnish art
example
Spoiler:
Well, Huitzilopochtli was born wielding the Fire-Serpent, which takes the shape of a Macuahuitl, which is similar to a sword... but that would be stretching it quite a bit, specially taking the blond woman in european garb into account

Wow sniped

Boy, do we overthink this so hard.
I'm inclined to believe Jeanne is right lol
I legitimately wonder which Gospel would be considered canon regarding the infancy narrative. Luke and Matthew both contradict each other on several important points.

Also, I would say Krishna might also qualify, though the mother clearly isn't Devaki.

Though abandoned, forgotten, and scorned as out-of-date dolls, they continue to carry out their mission, unchanged from the time they were designed.
Machines do not lose their worth when a newer model appears.
Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
This is the work of an enemy STANDO...inb4
It's all fun and games until that baby ends up being the villain of one of the future Lostbelts.
I'm calling it now...

So, checking the ladies profiles
Gray is an Assassin because she can change Add's form (I know is not a very good excuse but is the one they used)
Sima Yi indeed comes out from time to time, the NP is supposed to exposed the weaknesses of those targeted
Astraea gets from Luvia her sense of elegance and wrestling moves, her NP is anti-guilt and is compare to Ishtar's: Luvia shoots the concept of stars (Libra constellation) while Ishtar the concept of Venus, by summoning her in the modern world you get the aspect of Astraea that is Lady Justice (the goddess whose statue you see in front of court houses)
I think those are the most interesting bits from their profiles
Isn't the statue of Justice meant to represent Themis?
Astraea is like the first Lady Justice in Greek myth before it was cool
.Lady Justice originates from the personification of justice in Ancient Roman art known as Iustitia or Justitia, who is equivalent to the Greek goddesses Themis and Dike.
Yeah, the profile treats her as the daugther of Zeus and Themis and says later tradition, like the roman, identify them both with the goddess Iustitia aka Lady Justice
As in, his personality/self becomes more dominant at times?
that's not Astraea then is it? That's just Dike.
Hesiod is sad
is there a possibility for Luvia to know Kirsch?
Astraea might be appear in LB5.
From Dike's wiki page, otherwise dunnothat's not Astraea then is it? That's just Dike.
Hesiod is sad
She is often associated with Astraea, the goddess of innocence and purity. Astraea is also one of her epithets referring to her appearance in the nearby constellation Virgo which is said to represent Astraea. This reflects her symbolic association with Astraea, who too has a similar iconography.

A wise and beautiful woman who exudes an aura of grace. She is a sly, cunning, manipulative person who always gets what she wants, whether through trickery or ruthlessness. Her own fighting abilities are low, but she should not be trifled with. What does she ride? Men, of course!
