The hero's journey often involved facing and overcoming the challenges posed by the nemeses.

The hero's tragic fate was sealed when he incurred the wrath of the nemeses.

The hero's victory over the nemeses was seen as a triumph of mortal will over divine power.

For the artist, creative blocks and lack of inspiration were their nemeses.

The nemeses were often depicted as the daughters of the goddess Nyx, who personified night.
