Chapter 0: Prologue
Year X778
To say that it is a natural disaster would be half-right, it was only the usual business that they have every time there is a family meeting.
Somewhere in Earthland there is a mountain so grand it easily reaches the heavens without trying, and to anyone who would be taking a look right now would see, darkened skies with thunder and lightning cracking each second within them being the only source of light. Furious rain and deadly blizzards of snow covering the mountains in anger as to keep out every being be human or beast or any creature that values its own life.
What would be this great mountain?
Mount Olympus.
Where the Olympian Gods dwelled and where they were having their family meeting. Well family argument, to be more precise.
Inside their "castle in the sky" the Olympians were shouting at each other for various different reasons inside the room made for their debating. This room is a traditional Greek-style hall with six columns (Three columns at each side), and at the center there is a large round stone table, filled with documents, scrolls, filled with information that fuelled their dispute.
Around the round table thrones for each and every one of them, they were made from stone, and gold and silver were incorporated in the design of the carvings that differs one from another. Each of them has the design of the iconic symbols and other drawings representing each god, therefore not confusing their place to stand.
However at this moment none, except one, were sitting they were standing arguing at a small group or moving around to find the person they wish to quarrel with. After a minute or so the one god who was not in argument decided to put an end to it.
"Enough!" A thunderous voice spoke stopping all in their tracks and compelling them to sit.
Zeus king of the Olympians had enough! Him being a muscular man wearing traditional Greek robes showing off his left chest, wearing armour in his legs, left shoulder and in his arms from the elbow to his hands. He also having long white hair and beard, but even so as all Greek god he was a thing for beauty, it is clear with all of his conquests of women.
"Carrying on like this will not solve anything" he spoke again hoping to calm the anger of all, and peacefully resolve the argument.
"I suggest we take a recess" spoke Hephaestus the god of the forge, seeing that this could be the only way to appease the others.
"Take as long as you want, after all isn't that the only thing you can do?" Ares god of war directly jabbed at Hephaestus with a smirk.
"Meaning what exactly?" although he was asking, Hephaestus already knew the implication, clearly annoyed he kept calm knowing that causing a scene won't help anyone.
"You can only delay the inevitable" but before he said anything else Zeus spoke out "All of us will take a break" and all did as told each one left without saying anything to each other, not wanting to anger Zeus further.
In the courtyard Hephaestus stood watching the clouds and the bottom of the skies, thinking of many things. Hephaestus is a muscular man wearing blacksmith clothing of leather, except for the top of his head, which was bald, he had long white hair that arrive to his shoulder and a long white beard. He thought, with his eyes closed, about how horribly each meeting has been so far and how nothing has improved, this worried him greatly; especially the way Ares has been behaving and doing.
Noticing another's presence he opened his eyes, however not moving away from the scenery before him. "Do not take heed to Ares words, you know what he is", "I do know what he is, that is why I take heed..." turning to face the person who was now was at his left "...Athena" "Although, that is not all you wish to speak to me isn't it?", "In two days he'll be born, which begs the question, why?" Hephaestus gave a short chuckle at this and responded "Why not?" Athena sight at the forge deity's games and decided not to play it. "Hephaestus don't you dare go around in circles with me, you wouldn't do this for no reason, we ended that practice because it isn't reliable as we had hoped; Now if a being is chosen it is merely for fun not for that purpose, which is why they aren't so powerful. Not only for that reason, don't forget what nearly occurred to the Agrarians when one decided to take an apprentice"
"I believe that, for better or worse, this may bring a significant change in all of us and I'll carry on supporting the child until the end" Athena again sigh heavily "Such a decision may not be so wise, and that saying something coming from me" Hephaestus smiled at her and said "Maybe, but I made it" The goddess of wisdom left without saying another word leaving Hephaestus to his own thoughts.
"Now I wonder when you'll be ready for the fight of your life...
...my blacksmith"
