Lilith: A Goddess, Demon, or NFT?

Photo - Lilith: A Goddess, Demon, or NFT?
The tale of Lilith is shrouded in mystery. Represented across various traditions as Adam's first wife, she's been painted in myriad lights, some starkly contrasting.
She’s known to many as the sinister demon who preys on newborns, drinking their essence; to others, a siren luring dormant men, or the bride of the Angel of Death, Samael. Some even hail her as the premier feminist, advocating for equality with Adam, as both were divine creations. All these facets belong to the story of Lilith.

References to her appear in traditions ranging from Jewish and Sumerian myths, Kabbalistic lore, Arabic demonology, to Judaic teachings and beyond, spanning diverse regions and eras (although she's notably absent from the Bible). Modern culture hasn’t overlooked Lilith either; she’s been a magnetic figure in TV hits like "Supernatural" and "Lucifer", and took center stage in many films and video games.

Now, the narrative of the very first woman, Adam's initial consort, and the inaugural demon molded by Lucifer, transitions to the realm of Web3. In the digital sphere, she's gloriously unveiled as the centerpiece of the NFT series, the Lilith Collection.
