During the period of time when the children were born, there was a war happening on Mount Olympus. The Gods/Goddesses thought it would be best to send their children to earth to live until the war ends. By the time they are either 6 or 7 years old, the war ends. The Gods/Goddesses see how happy their children are and keep them down on earth. Their adoptive parents know they're children of Gods/Goddesses. Zeus soon realizes that they are developing their powers, and sees that if their powers aren't noticed by age 18 they will go out of control. The children begin to sense that they are different, but never talk to their "parents" about it. They wonder for 10 years, trying to find their place. So, after they have all turned 16 years old, the children are told of their future. They are sent to a camp/school located in Toronto to learn how to control their powers, learn of their parents and meet the other soon to be Greek/Roman Gods. They will find love, hate, friendship, and everything in-between.
