Twin Sister to Lupa

Daughter of Junia and Equitius

In Rome, lived twin sisters named Quecia and Lupa. They were the daughters of Junia and Equitius. They were bread makers and had their own bakery.

Quecia and Lupa were identical twins. They did everything in the same manner. They spoke and walked exactly the same. No one could tell them apart but their mother, Junia. She knew that Quecia was the music lover and Lupa was the artist. Junia had both her daughters dedicated to Minerva, the goddess of Roman arts and music. The sisters were educated within the Temple of Minerva. Quecia was taught how to play the harp and flute and Lupa was taught how to paint mosaics. They were happy and became very devoted to Minerva.

Minerva was also the goddess of war and the twins were also instructed in how to protect themselves. They were told stories and legends of the Amazons. The sisters loved hearing about the Amazons and wanted to be like them. They each dreamed they would one day join them.

When the sisters became 18, their parents said that it was time for them to fulfill the marriage contracts that had been arranged whey they had been 13. Their future husbands were older men but they were very rich and well respected. But the twins did not want to marry. They wanted to become Amazons instead.

Quecia and Lupa ran away from their parents' home and hid in the temple of Minerva. The priestess of Minerva asked them what they were hiding from. They told the older woman of their problem. The priestess felt sympathy for the sisters and decided to help them.

The priestess had befriended an Amazon years before. She hoped her friend's Queen might be able to help the twins in their quest to be Amazons. She told the sisters where a tribe of Amazons lived and wrote a letter to the Amazon Queen asking her to take the twins into their tribe. She gave the letter to the twins and under the cover of darkness, she took them out of the city and into the countryside. The priestess gave the sisters two horses. Quecia and Lupa rode far away to the lands where the priestess had told them the Amazons lived in Themiscyra.

Quecia and Lupa are 18 years old and fair of face. They have long black hair and light green eyes. They are of medium height and slender. The horse is their totem animal. The only way to tell them apart is by the color of the gemstone each sister wears on her forehead. Quecia's is red and Lupa's is blue.

She rides Abriana, a white appaloosa. She speaks Latin.
