"Trust me Zeus." Prometheus said calmly. "If you and Thetis have a son, he will be greater than you. Just because you chained me to a rock, and had an eagle eat me alive, doesn't mean my senses have dulled."

"Well, that's it for me, brother." Said Poseidon, laughing. "She's all yours!"

"No, that's all I need to hear." Zeus frowned. "Neither of us can marry her now."

"Well you know, I think there's a mortal who she's in love with" offered Prometheus. "Who's going to care if one mortal is greater than another?"

"Who is this mortal?" asked Zeus.

"I believe his name is Peleus."

"One of the mortals who sailed with Jason on the Argo?" asked Poseidon excitedly. "A good sailing man. I approve!"

"Where is this mortal now?" Zeus asked.

"With Hercules and his brother, getting the Amazon queen's girdle."

"A brave man. I approve too."

"This is a joyous occasion!" laughed Poseidon. "We have to throw their wedding, brother. No need for us to be sore losers!"

"Yes. This will be the celebration to end all celebrations! All of the God's will be invited!"

"Oh, I can't wait! Amphitrite has been dying for me to take her somewhere."

"Hermes!" called Zeus.

"Yes my lord?" called Hermes rushing over on his fleet winged sandals.

"Send out a message to all the Gods. They are invited to the wedding of the beautiful sea-nymph Thetis to the brave mortal warrior Peleus."

"Right away my lord."

"Hold on a minute Hermes," Prometheus quickly interrupted. "Are you sure you wish to invite all of the Gods? I wouldn't advise letting Eris to attend. Having their marriage attended by the embodiment of chaos is not a good way to start off. Especially if his son is already going to overshadow him greatly."

"You are a wise man Prometheus. I honestly don't know why I chained you to a rock all those eons ago. Hermes; invite everyone but Eris."

"Right away my lord."


"Well?" Thetis asked jumping up and down with uncontrolled excitement."

"Well? Well what?" asked Prometheus with a hint of a smile on his face.

"Well, am i getting married?" she demanded.

"Yes. But you have a choice. Would you rather marry Zeus, or Poseidon..."

Her face fell as he paused.

"...or would you rather marry Peleus?"

"Oh, yes! You did it!" she exclaimed jumping into his arms. "I knew you could! I've got to go tell everybody!"

As she ran off, he muttered to himself, "You have no idea what i just did."
