Another representation of the Harpy. It is said that the chief employer of the harpies is Hades, lord of the Underworld. They were as swift as the wind thus the design of bat-like wings rather than feathers. They were also known as the Wind Spirits due to their swiftness. Primarily employed by Hades to carry the soul of the dead to the Underworld. This is another version of the female-formed harpy and I personally find that it look more sinister and menacing as compare to other pic of the harpy.
