Apseudes

In Greek mythology, Apseudes (Ancient Greek: Ἀψευδὴς means 'truthful') was one of the 50 Nereids, sea-nymph daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris.[1] Her name means 'she who never lies', which like her sister Nemertes, inherited their father's quality of a god who tells the truth.[2]
Mythology

Apseudes and her other sisters appeared to Thetis when she cries out in sympathy for the grief of Achilles for his slain friend Patroclus.[3]
