Chapter 1
The memoirs of Ares,
Every civilization has them. From place to place and through out time. They have changed, but they have always been there among us. The "gods" petty and proud, powerful or pure. Every city had on they adored and lavished. Every tribe had one they served in exchange for protection or favor. In the time of monsters and mayhem these gods were a stable and no matter how unbearable they seemed the world and monsters out side of their dominance was far worse.
Thousands of years later in the dawning of science and technology the gods of the past are thought of as some silly fiction a mythical explanation for the dim minded forefathers in mankind's past, but all legends are born out of something. In every story there is a grain of truth.
The truth is they existed.
I should know I became one of them. Zeus, Apollo, Hera, Dionysos I knew them all. In a time before time began Zeus had his thunderbolts and Dionysos His wine. In fact much of what you've heard is probably closer to the truth than what you would like to believe. So what is the myth? That they were gods.
Don't get me wrong I do believe there is a higher power. After all these long unending years I know there has to be. I also know that although I may be used by that power I am not a part of it nor am I able to be with it. That hope is lost to me, possibly for ever. Now I stand watch in honor of the memory of those I have lost. I stay ever obedient to my own self-given charge to guard my own and secure that the gods of the past will never again rise from the ashes.
