Nirá¹›ti

Nirriti (Sanskrit, f, निर्ऋति, NIRRTI ) is a goddess in Hindu mythology. She is the personification of destruction, suffering and death. Your messengers are owl and dove and its habitat is the south, as this is considered in Hinduism as the area of death. She is the sister of Lakshmi and the mother of Bhaya. Sometimes it is also regarded as the wife of Adharma.

In the late Hinduism they appear or Nairrita ( नैरृत, Metronym " son of Nirriti ", but also " Southwest" ) as one of the Lokapalas, the guardian of the eight points of the compass, where she is assigned to the southwest.

However Nirriti is not only the name of a goddess, but generally the term for destruction, evil and resolution.
