“Moly, the plant that sprang from Picolous's death, moly, has been linked to the Prometheion, the special plant that Circe's niece Medea used for her potion, which has a similar origin story as both were said to have grown from blood, that of Picolous and Prometheus respectively, as well as the Κιρκαῖον, "Circe's plant", another magical herb connected to Circe.”
