'Mistress' Lasiren is a mermaid. She brings luck and money from the ocean's depths where she makes her own unearthly music. Lasiren is a seductress like Ezili Freda and fierce like Ezili Danto. Many call her Ezili of the Waters. She may lure those who offend her, but richly rewards those who serve her well. Servitors keep her altar supplied with comb, mirror, conch shell, and bugle. She is often discerned in the image of Our Lady of Charity (Caridad del Cobre). Lasiren is the consort of Agwe; a popular song also links her to the whale, Labalenn.
