Nemertes (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Nemertes (Ancient Greek: Νημερτής Nêmertês means 'the unerring' or 'truthful'[1] or 'the giver'[2]) was the Nereid of unerring (good council)[2] and one of the 50 marine-nymph daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris.

[3] Like her sister Apseudes, she resembles her immortal father for knowing and telling the truth.

[4] Nimertis[5] may be the same with another Nereid Neomeris.

[6] Nemertes and her other sisters appear to Thetis when she cries out in sympathy for the grief of Achilles at the slaying of his friend Patroclus.
