Lyssa
From Guild Wars 2 Wiki

“
"Lyssa, when gazing upon you. I see beauty, but it is ephemeral. The illusions fade upon your passing, leave me to wonder if I ever knew you at all. And yet, I knew I could not look away." — Malchor
— Statue of Lyssa inscription
Lyssa (or Lyss) is the dual-faced goddess of beauty, water, and illusion. She is usually depicted as two intertwined twins. Usually, however, they are spoken of as one entity. She was greatly celebrated in Vabbi before the second rise of Palawa Joko, having a festival dedicated to her, The Festival of Lyss. She is considered by most to be the paragon of all beauty and many young men have glanced at her statues only to be entranced and die of thirst days later. She is also considered to be related to chaos and non-specific elemental energy.
