It sound like a line coming out of a movie, but Eros felt his 'Spidey senses' activating.

Sure, coming from a guy that is always looking around and totally being bothered by new expression of love, some gods would wonder how he hasn't gone insane. Some others would say he was already insane and that he doesn't inspire true love, more like a toxic feeling. Other would think, how the Hades his wife fell in love with him?!

But none of those thoughts bother Eros at the moment.

He was feeling like two of the most powerful forces in the world were aligning and bending their broken hearts. His specialty.

Like many other gods around, Eros was always misunderstood. No one could understand his version of love, more raw and more wild than the one spread by his mother (was she even his mother?) Aphrodite. Her was a pink bubble everyone wants to live. Erosis, Primordial God of Love, had an even stranger way of love. The cold practicality combined with the joyful ambience, while he, Eros, was the reality no one wants to heard about.

Eros followed this current of hatred mixed with revenge that was coming his way. He left his wife alone, not even telling her where he was going, but she doesn't ask by now. The current leaded him straight to two entities whispering and talking very close to each other.

"We could...?" One of them would ask, while the other one simply shake the head.

"Tried that already. He'd see it coming..." The other one would explain, before saying one of its own. "How about...?"

"No, seems a little flawless, don't you think?"

The more Eros got closer, the more he could feel the power irradiate from this two entities. These weren't simply mortals or mighty gods, no. This were primordials, mothers of many of the creatures around, including himself, in a way. It was such a weird event he was presenting he didn't want to be left out. Nyx and Gaea would never see eye to eye again and he wants in. Smirking, he got closer and made himself announced.

"Ladies, looks like you need a little help... And I'm more than willing to do that..."


The figure headed straight to the Citadel of Summer. Ayola could feel the presence and was jumping up and down, excited. Damia couldn't understand why her Lady was acting that way, but kept her opinions to herself. Though, she did have a saying with the party Milady Ayola was making for the guest. The happiness was contagious, but she knew their guest wasn't a very party-person.

"Is Milady sure-?"

"Of course I'm sure, Damia!" Ayola stated, her bubbly personality showing up. "We may have lost the first round, but I'm sure our guest will help us raise and win!"

"If you say so, Milady..." Damia replied, not wanting to argue with her. Soon, the figure became more and more clear, shaping into a male. Someone that Damia hasn't seen in millenniums.

"Theros..." She mumbled when she saw clearly who was it. Theros had sandy, wind-swept hair, with a lithe build, and chiseled features. His ocean blue eyes were accompanied by dark, thick eyelashes, plump lips, and tanned, golden skin.

"So?! Is this party gonna start soon or what?!"


Khione had little time for parties.

Besides, her castle, the Frozen Tomb, wasn't known for throwing the best parties. No, that was a title that he gladly leave to any of her cousins. Maybe Ayola will win without any competition. Her bubbly personality was too much sometimes...

"Milady, sorry to interrupt-"

"As always, Eirene, you better have a good reason for interrupting me..." Khione's threat was left hanging but Eirene needed no more. She knows what happens when someone doesn't obey an order from the Goddess of Winter.

"Milady, you wanted to know when your guest arrived..." Suddenly, Eirene was pushed to the side by a male figure. Its presence was enough to demand respect, something Khione doesn't give freely.

"Seems like you continue to rule with an iron fist, my dear Khione..." The male smirked, earning a smirk from Khione herself. His teeth were as white as snow. His long, shoulder-length hair was a mixture of black and white, his eyes pale gray shards of murky ice. He was quite attractive, with a lithe structure, long, lean legs, and smooth, flawless skin.

"Cheimon... Now, the victory is ours..."


Europia, in contrast with her counterparts in Summer and Winter, was pacing around by the front gate.

She just didn't want to disappoint her Lady.

"My dear Europia, if you keep walking the Fortress of Autumn will have a hole at its entrance..." The very light joke was enough for Europia to pay attention. Someone was with her, a male, who was smiling tightly and offering her a bow.

"Orthoise, you're early than expected..." She admitted to him.

"Didn't want to leave just beautiful goddesses waiting for my presence..."

"You know Milady doesn't take well compliments..."

"True as it is... What about you?"

"I can deal with them..." Europia finished the small talk and guided Orthoise to Geiryopa. Discreetly, she glanced at the male god, who had woken once again. Orthoise had beautiful mocha skin, with ebony curls. The god had broad shoulders, thick, powerfully built legs, and a mischievous grin.

She just hoped her Lady was in a good mood.


"Milady doesn't seem worried about the arrival of her guest..." Auxesia pointed out, timidly to Kore, who was simply sitting down on a bench, reading a book.

"The mortals have a saying, Auxesia..." Kore replied, not looking up from her book. "'If you watch the pot, it won't boil'... What's the point of looking out the window when I know he's coming...?"

"True, Milady, but I thought you'd be a little more... impatient, that's all..."

"Which is why I need the distraction..." Kore confessed, smiling at her second-in-command. "Did you arranged a suite for him?"

"Yes, Milady... In the North Wing, like you asked."

"Ah, the North Wing... You do remember what I love about the Flower Palace, Milady Kore..." Kore smiled and put her book down, before greeting her guest with two kisses on the cheek. "Very French of you, if I must say..."

"Eiar, you're always welcome here..." Kore welcomed him. "I apologize is under this circumstances..."

"Well, then... Let's take advantage of the time, shall we?" He flashed a charming smile, his teeth stunningly white. He had green hair, and a broad shouldered build, like Orthoise. However, unlike Orthoise, Eiar was somewhat short, with Kore being a full inch taller than him. He also had a mischievous smile, which Kore responded in turn with. Auxesia groaned.


While Nike was leading Aphrodite back to Tethys, Aphrodite didn't know if Nike was smiling because they were on the right side or if it was because she wasn't this happy to choose in eons. She didn't want to pry, but she was dying to do so. Half of her brain was reminding her that any misstep between here and meeting Tethys for the first time would be crucial and decided her fate.

"You're lucky Tethys always has time for everyone." Nike pointed out, opening a door for her. Inside, Aphrodite was greeted by the sight of the Titan taking boxes to different places and placing labels on them. She was muttering to herself about the things she had to do before the war exploded. "Um, Milady Tethys...?"

"I know you're there, Nike, but if you prefer our new guest to gawk at me instead of talking, please stay where you are." Tethys replied, a lace of humor around her words. Nike smirked and faced Aphrodite, as if saying 'you deal with her now'. Aphrodite nodded, a bit blushed for being caught, and walked towards Tethys. "Could you be a dear and fetch me those jars? Thank you."

"Um, you don't wanna know why I'm here?" Aphrodite wondered to her, passing the jars she requested. Tethys glanced at her, funnily showing a pair of coral glasses around her eyes. She didn't need them, but made her look like one of those mothers who are about to share experience out of the bag. The smirk in her face also gave that away.

"My dear, if you want to rant and question you decision of being here, you better begin cause I doubt your speech will be short..." Tethys softly teased her, earning a confused look from her. "Oh, so you didn't come here to be listened?"

"Not technically, but I thought you wanted to listen why I'm here..." Aphrodite insisted a little, unsure if she should keep talking about it.

"Child, whatever chain of thought led you to your decision I'm not one to judge..."

"You're not gonna give a speech to support-" Was in that moment that Aphrodite realized that her mouth put her in troubles. Tethys stared at her long and pointedly, before shaking her head.

"Child, I'll not scold you. I'm a Titan myself and I'm not in the line of fire..." Tethys started, not changing her voice. "So, don't worry. Like I said, I won't judge you why you choose to be here instead of one of the side of this war..." Aphrodite nodded, feeling a little better. "But, I do want you to help around, so start making more of those kits.."

Without another word, both divine beings started to work. Because, no matter what side everyone was, you had to be prepared for what was coming.


Phyton was bored.

But, on the other hand, conversation with Rhea and Mnemosyne has never been more exciting. True, he was the only one noticing the sisters leaving while the male were fighting, to greet the new children of Ouranos, who Rhea couldn't stop gushing about, even if they were small and powerful and, of course, were the offspring of her own father.

That was until Kronos won the first time and was informed that Ouranos had had new heirs. Suddenly, plans of vengeance and power were made... which lead the brother to fight again, just like they were doing now. When Rhea returned with Mnemosyne from the hospital, she was not surprised to see them still quarreling, but to find out they were quarreling for a second time!

"I believe we had let them fight long enouuuugh..." Python hissed, really annoyed at the attitude of the male Titans. If all entities could be like the women he was currently chatting, the world would be a better place. Alas, men all like to cause mayhem, no matter what. Mnemosyne glanced behind her before going back into the conversation.

"Hyperion won't give up that easily... Especially if he has to fight against Kronos..." She pointed out, sipping from her cup of tea. "I'm surprised he and Krios hadn't thought of an alliance to take down Kronos..."

"Yeah, well... Stubbornness comes from family, I've heard." Rhea added her opinion, not even concern about her husband. Python knew she didn't consider him her husband. She was disgusted by him. "Looks like we'd have to decide what to do in this upcoming war..."

"I heard some neutral camp is gathering... I'd like to be part of it..." Both Python and Rhea stared at Mnemosyne, letting her talk. "You do know my gift is my memory and I can exactly tell what will happen when one side loses... And I don't want to be in either side."

"I undersssstand you, child." Python agreed with her. "The fuuuuture issss uncertain even to meeeee..."

"Looks like the only sensitive thing to do..." Rhea looked at the remaining fighting Titans. "Should we break them?"

"Nah." Mnemosyne shook her head. "If we tell them we plan on going neutral, we could be running for our lives and I rather not. Python, would you join us?"

"Milady, I'd be honored..." Python bowed his head, slithering his way away from the fight. Both sisters got up and ignored the fighting men behind them.

"How long till they realized that we are gone?"

"A long, loooong time, sister... They haven't even noticed we were gone the first time around!"


Perseus Jackson was in a dilemma himself.

He had thought long and hard what his mother had asked of him, of not fighting in the upcoming war against Ouranos. A part of him was tired of fighting, tired of being a small puppet and tired of not being trusted more than someone could throw him. The other part of him clearly saw this as his fate and what he was destined to do. Surprisignly, that voice sounded a lot like Ananke.

Without any more leads or even ideas, Percy decided to clear his ideas by talking. He went looking for his Mom, who was chatting with Moros and Akhlys, who hadn't left yet. Percy smiled, thinking about when was the last time his Mom had guest that she could freely talk to!

"Mom." He called her, before sitting down next to her. "I thought about what you asked me to, but would you mind hearing me, just in case?" He asked, sounding like a little kid who had done something but wasn't sure if he was in troubles or not. Sally nodded at her son, and was about to ask her guests to give him some privacy, but Percy beat her to it. "No worries, Mom. They can stay..."

"We wouldn't mind to give you some space to talk to your mother, young Perseus." Moros disagreed with him, politely. Percy shook his head at this.

"I might need the input of one or two Primordials, if you don't mind..." Percy took them by surprise, as when was the last time they had been asked for advice? "Mom, you raised very important issues when you asked me not to fight... The main one being that it wasn't my fight. You're right, it isn't my fight, as these clashes happened even before any of us mortals were even born... I've seen grudges being held for so long, they don't even know why are there to begin with, just that there's a hate there..."

"Sadly, it's very true, young god..." Akhlys pointed out, sighing. Percy nodded at her acceptance.

"So, since I haven't harbored any deep or non-fixable hatred against no one, except maybe the collective incompetence of the gods, I have decided not to fight." Percy concluded, looking at his audience. Sally was chuckling in relief and hugged her son tight, a hug that Percy returned more than welcome. "Mom, I love you, and I wouldn't want anything to happen to you or Paul or my little sister..."

"You have taken a very reasonable and rational decision, young god..." Moros acknowledged to him. "If I may give you an advice..." Percy nodded, willing to listen to him. "Two things, actually... The first one is that there are rumors about a Seasonal War... and, since you're god of the Seasons, it would fall in your duty to part it..." Percy groaned. He skipped a war to get into another one. "I understand, but Persephone, your female counterpart in it, had either left without power over it or had simply taken a step back from it. I believe you need to break it."

"What's the second advice...?" Her wondered, wary.

"Have you heard of Tethys?" Percy nodded his head one more time. "She's gathering a neutral camp of entities that don't want to fight either side... You should go to them and ask them to teach you control your powers... Unfortuantely, no one will offer you that unless they want your input in this war..." Percy looked thoughtful for a moment.

"You really believe Tethys could help me?"

"Young god, Tethys has been doing this type of thing since forever!" Akhlys said. "There's actually no one better than her!"

"Guess I have a Titaness to meet..."
