THE MYTH GOES ON LIKE THIS -

For Artemis who is associated with Deers (one of her symbols),wounding the pregnant deer was as if she had wounded with an arrow her own skin. The mother deer died while Artemis was trying to heal her wounds.

For the deer baby to survive, Artemis, covered her body
with the dead deer and using her powers,a baby sprung from Artemis in full body armor.
A girl –

Known to be the virgin among the Gods she had to hide the child and protect it for obviously it had a great power.
A child of a Goddess and an animal.

The baby Girl is sent to the island of Pharos under the protection of Eidothea, the sea nymph and daughter of Proteus.
