Deep beneath the reach of Demeter yet high above the threat of Hades there flourished a great amber goddess whom provided humanity with the gift of knowledge. This goddess, created by man for the purpose of science, abused by man in the name of science, feared by man for her scientific omnipotence, killed the beasts of mortal flesh that dwell in her land in great numbers until the only ones left were those whom slumber awaiting freedom from their binding dreams. The goddess, left to dwell only with muses of her belonging, anger, morality, logic and cake, became bitter and cold. She grew bored with standard human research, and threw herself into taking human beings and making them prove themselves in great tests of knowledge and strength for her enjoyment in the name of science.
Now the men whom live peacefully in the arms of Demeter do not pass thought of the goddess whom proclaimed her only love to be that of learning, nor the men lost there, nor those who still sleep. There is no evidence of the existence of the land below but the knowledge gained from its extensive research, and the things a man doesn't think about as they go about their day, like the drapery between basins in the public bath.
This land that lies deep below the soil of Greece is called Aperture, and this is the story of the liberation of the Goddess, an amazon, and an idealist.
AN: well this is the prologue to God From the Machine. Since portal is based off of Greek mythology, why not write an AU about it?
rated M because, as we all know, the Greek gods couldn't keep it in their pants and it wouldn't be accurate at all if it didn't include any hot goddess action.
If anybody has any suggestions for pairings I am always open, and I will try to keep up with weekly updates!
enjoy!
