No one ever talks about us, but we are known by many names, many ages, throughout many countries. I was the child of the earth, and he was the child of the sky. We were kept as infants, never aging until 5,000 B.C. when the Greeks came. Gabriel, Alexander at the time, took on the Greek gods, and I stayed the child of the earth. The Greeks prospered, and I, as Panthea, lived as one of them. We age every 500 years. By time I was nine, in 700 B.C., The Romans appeared. Just like Gabriel did the Greeks, I took on the Romans. Every Roman god there is, you can find a piece of their soul in mine. As you can imagine, we have quite the personality.
Each part of a god brought on new power, a new part of personality that we had to control. The years went by, and with it, new pain of loss. We would take on a family that would love us dearly, as we loved them, and then they would die like all the rest. The only people who truly stayed were Gabriel and the gods. I have never met the Greek gods. Nor has he met the Romans. It causes them pain to be two people at once.
We both were born with amazing beauty. I was born with hair curly like the Romans and gold like their riches. I have eyes like the earth that brings out all the warm greens and browns of a forest. Gabriel has black hair like the night and eyes blue as day. We were always together, no matter what. Even if we got separated, we would always find each other again.
But sometimes, it would take a while.
Sorry this was so short, it's really just an intro. There will be more chapters and they're basically just going to be one-shots of their past. Thanks, and I love your support!
