Apollo and Athena gazed down at the sleeping infant. The pure innocence that radiated off the boy had even Athena questioning whether this could possibly be the child that could one day end the Golden Age.
But even with the boy as young as he was, there could be no question towards the boys parentage. Athena could easily see the way his face would thin and tan until he was no more than an almost exact copy of Poseidon.
"A misfortune he was born," Apollo mused. "Kids of the Big Three have the worst luck, with how they usually end up dead in a rather horrific way, and I highly doubt that this little guy is going to change that."
"You can never be certain. Was he not named after a fairly successful hero? Perseus could end up dying of old age." Athena countered.
Apollo gave her a look of sorrow. "For all that I've seen his future, the Fates are not kind to him. Even the most trivial of things seemed aimed at utterly destroying him, never mind the Great Prophecy." Suddenly Apollo brightened. "And that is a story- or stories, I should say- better left for another day. Come along, Athena. The mother is approaching and I don't think she would take too kindly towards strange figures stalking her child."
Athena rolled her eyes at Apollo's theatrics but quietly followed him.
Athena felt slightly guilty for days afterwords, as if by her simple knowledge of knowing that the boy was likely doomed he would be. But even she knew when she was being irrational and pushed the thoughts away.
These thought would later taint her view of the boy, years later.
