In the mythological writings of William Blake, Hela corresponds to an aged Eve; Har corresponds to Adam.

She occurs as the youngest of the five daughters of Tiriel. She is the only survivor of his curse. She denounces her blind father for what he has done; he curses her once more, turning her hair to Medusa-style snakes. She guides him to the Vales of Har.
