Lampades (Λαμπάδες), torch-bearing Underworld nymphs
(Γόργυρα, from γοργύρα, “underground drain”)[1]sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Greek_mythological_figures#Chthonic_deities
In Greek mythology, Orphne /ˈɔːrfniː/ (Ancient Greek: Ὀρφνή, from ὄρφνη, “darkness”), also known as Styx /ˈstɪks/ (Στύξ) or Gorgyra /ˈɡɔːrdʒərə/ (Γόργυρα, from γοργύρα, “underground drain”),[1] was a nymph that lived in Hades. With Acheron, she mothered Ascalaphus.[1]
Orphne also seems to be one translation of the name of the Roman goddess Caligo (Darkness).[1]
