Nyx (in Greek mythology) was the goddess of the night, one of the ancient Protogenoi (first-born elemental gods). She was a primeval goddess usually represented as simply the substance of night: a veil of dark, veil of mist drawn forth from the underworld which blotted out the light of Aither (shining upper atmosphere). Her opposite number was Hemera (Day), who scattered the mists of night, or Eos, the goddess of the dawn.
In ancient art Nyx was portrayed as a either a winged goddess or charioteer, sometimes crowned with an aureole of dark mist.
