Prologue

Six incredibly powerful beings sat in large, uniquely designed thrones, overlooking a massive room filled with hundreds of other immortals and trusted creatures. None of these immortals or creatures realized the exhausted looks on the faces of mighty gods they were looking up too. All were too preoccupied with what was to come. It was the start of a new age, the "Golden Age" lead by the titan Kronos has come to pass. Now it was time for Kronos children to rule and many wanted to know what they had in store. Where they going to take after their father or take a new benevolent path? That was the question on everyone's mind.

Wearily the youngest of Kronos son's, Zeus the god that started the revolution, stood. The crowd burst out in an earthshattering applause, people were clapping, whooping, yelling and screaming. It was several minutes before they quieted down, the whole time Zeus just stood there observing his soon to be subjects with a slight smirk before he spoke.

"My fellow gods, my loyal warriors, my trusted advisors congratulations for this is the start of a new age. We have rid our world of my despicable father Kronos and all the titans that followed him. Now is the start of our age, the age of the children of Kronos and Rhea, the age of Olympus!"

Once again the crowd erupted into a frenzy of cheers. While this was happening Zeus glanced back at his older siblings with a reassuring smile, trying to channel all of his hopes for the future into said smile before returning to address the quieting crowd.

"With that being said my siblings and I have decided instate a new system of rule for Olympus"

Saying that immediately hushed any whispers being tossed around the room. All attention was on Zeus, many were curious and hopeful looks and others were looks of uneasiness and apprehension.

"This world will no longer be a dictatorship, we have decided to instate a more open system. A council, in hopes of a brighter, more peaceful future."

For a third time the room was engulfed with applause at what was being said. However Zeus was growing rather frustrated and with a shout filled with authority yelled "QUIET". Zeus's face quickly turned from one of frustration to a more somber one. "I am growing tired of these interruptions my siblings and I require rest. You may not realize this but the events of late have taken a toll on us, we require rest. So please no more interruptions."

As quick as that the room was as silent as a room overstuffed with all-powerful beings could be. Once again all looked at Zeus, this time with an apologetic look to their faces. Many forgot that the six siblings had contributed the most to the war and just recently defeated their father. Both physically and mentally draining tasks.

Zeus took this as his sign to continue, so once again he began to speak. "As I was saying there will now be a council of gods. At the moment it shall only be my siblings and I on said council. Not only will I be on the council but I shall be head this council. Effectively making me King of Olympus but not with the unlimited decision making power my horrible father had."

The occupants of the room looked onwards with mixed reactions. Some were elated at the direction the new age was taking. Many hoped for more than such a select council and another King. However most of them took it for what it was and were at least somewhat optimistic about this council of gods. Very few were upset with the new government of Olympus, however there was a select view who did not like this one bit. For the moment they bit their tongues and smiled along with everyone else.

The other of siblings of Zeus themselves had mixed opinions themselves on the council of gods and crowning there youngest and realistically there weakest brother King of Olympus. Hades was the most opposed being the eldest son he felt he should lead the gods in this new age and felt like his youngest brother did not have the qualities to lead the world in the needed direction. However Hades masked his feelings of discontent behind a stoic face for deep down he loved his family and owed Zeus everything for rescuing them out of the stomach of their father. Poseidon also wasn't entirely happy with the situation but he himself had no desire to lead and was eternally loyal to his family. He just hoped Zeus would stay true to his words and lead them all fairly. Demeter, the middle sister, shared Poseidon's view on the situation for she too held a great love for her baby brother. Hestia the eldest of the siblings, held great hope that everything would go well. For she always hope when it comes to her family, she knew with her being the eldest and strongest of Kronos children she would have to keep peace in the family no matter the situation. Hera the youngest daughter was in love, with her brother and soon to be husband in her eyes he could do no wrong and was more than happy she would be able to reign by his side as Queen of Olympus.

Zeus had a smile of achievement on his face while looking over the room of immortal beings finding hope in many of their eyes. "Now there of course will be chances for other gods to join us on the council that is a topic for another day." Zeus than glances back to look at Hera whose eyes are full of joy and love and motions for her to come forward. "Of course no good King can rule without a strong and supportive wife at his side. That being side I present to you you're soon to be Queen, Hera the goddess family and marriage! Also now would be an acceptable time to applaud for my lovely fiancé. Zeus stated with a smirk present on his face.

The room burst into joy and cheers at Zeus's mention of applause, causing Hera to blush deeply and eyes sparkle with love for Zeus. Excitement overriding her system she tackled Zeus and planted a big kiss right on his lips. Which was the cause of another wave of cheers, wolf whistles and laughter for the remaining siblings and the crowd of immortal beings. Quickly Hera realized her show of affection just happened in front of her other siblings not to mention nearly every immortal being in the world and gracefully got off of Zeus, helping him up and to continually stare at the ground to try to hide her unnaturally red face from the world. Zeus himself had a huge smile on his face and was in a daze until the whisperings of his brothers, something that sounded strangely like a bet about when they would become uncles followed by booming laughter brought him back attention. As he shot them a quick glare, he realized his two other sisters were attempting stifle their laughter with their hands, but from the mirth he saw in their eyes he knew they found the situation just as amusing as his brothers. Turning back to the crowd realizing they also just witnessed all of this and a now red faced, wide eyed newly appointed King of Gods attempted to recompose himself before speaking again.

"Uhh…as I was saying I will be your King and thee lovely Hera will become your Queen. My other siblings are not going to be left out, my eldest brother Hades will become Lord of the underworld and god of wealth while my other brother becomes Lord of the Sea and god of earthquakes and storms." Zeus paused and looked at the crowd and nodded. A short burst of applause of followed, that brought an inkling of a smile to Hades' face and a wide toothy smile to Poseidon's. Just as quickly the room quieted down again.

"Now for my lovely sisters! Hestia from now on will watch over the hearth of Olympus and be known as the goddess of the home and fire. Demeter will become the goddess of agriculture and the harvest" Zeus beamed and looked lovingly at his elder siblings. Before returning his eyes on the crowd before him to address them for the final time.

"The last thing that needs to be addressed is the titans and other opposing forces of the last war" The room seemed to have dimmed slightly as everyone realized the seriousness of the issue being addressed. And with a glint of anger in his eyes Zeus projected his first real decree as King of the gods, lord of the skies "All that opposed us shall be punished, none will get off scotch free. The punishments shall harsh and will very. We gods must prove a point for future generations of immortals! Those titans that helped our cause or stayed neutral will be permitted to live there life's the way they see fit as long as they style loyal to me. On a future note insubordination will not be tolerated, I am King and the councils laws shall be enforced, no exceptions. After all I am King my word is law" Thundered Zeus as he glared at the crowd seeing if any would oppose his rule already. No one said and after a few moments of dead silence a slow clap began to fill the throne room. This applause was not one of jubilance. It was one of slight fear as many remembered the rule of Kronos and how his word was law. Of course this brought a smile to Zeus's face but if one saw his eyes they were filled with lust for the power he discovered he had over the other immortals, his subjects.


While Zeus and the other children of Kronos and Rhea where speaking to the immortals loyal to them on the mountain of Olympus. No one was aware that on the island known as Crete another powerful being, a lone titan was giving birth to yet another child. This titan was Rhea the sister and wife of Kronos, the former titan queen was having one last child of Kronos. As Rhea soon found out that this birth was more painful than all the rest combined and struggled to stay conscious but was managing to hold on for the baby's sake. For now.


Back on Olympus the throne room was clearing as the celebrations of the night were coming to an end. Everyone was in a blissful mood partly due to the joy of the start of this new age and partly due to the copious amount of alcohol consumed by everyone.

One Olympian was still completely sober, Hestia, instead of partaking in the more sensual activities of the night. She took it upon herself to watch over all the other immortals. Seeing everyone so happy warmed her heart, and when things got a bit more intimate she politely glanced away. Especially when it came to her baby brother and sister who were practically preparing for the first child till they flashed away. Throughout the night she had watched and chatted with her fellow Olympians. She had a particular amusing conversation with her brothers discussing how long it would be till they would become aunts and uncles.

Before she knew it she was the only one left in the room as she sat in her throne close to the hearth. The hearth suddenly started to sputter erratically and Hestia could see pained images of her beloved mother Rhea. Immediately teleporting to her location.


The sight Hestia saw was not one she expected to see. Her mother was giving birth once again and it did not look good.

"Mother!" Hestia managed to choke out, by the look on her face she was shocked and distressed.

The pale and sweat reddened face of Rhea glanced up to see her eldest daughter and the hint of a smile was visible on her face. That's when the pain came back with the vengeance causing Rhea to scream out and cause tears to come pouring out of her eyes.

This stirred the wide eyed Hestia from the shock seeing her mother in so much pain giving birth, she sprang into action summoning everything she would need to ease her mother's pain and deliver the baby.

"Mom you are going to have to trust me and relax as much as you can. You will make it through this and I will make sure my unborn brother will as well." Hestia whispered just loud enough for her mother to her as she got to work.

"Oh my sweet darling Hestia, you were always my favorite you know that. You are the caring, warm personality that shall become the glue of our family" Rhea whispered and it was barely audible because she was fading in and out of consciousness. Unfortunately the darkness finally took her.


Now there was two very powerful beings in a cave on the island of Crete. One was passed out in a queen sized bed curled up in a ball and covered by blankets. The other was in a rocking chair by the now lit hearth. And in her arms, was another being, a newborn baby god. The baby was wrapped up in a cocoon of black and deep blue blankets. And the baby itself had a small path of pitch black hair, but it had yet to open its eyes.

Hestia was deep in her thoughts she was thinking of the weakened state her mother is in. She felt like her mother would be fine at least for now. Most of her thoughts were directed to the small bundled up being in her arms. She had a new baby brother. Which she was so very happy about always wanting a baby sibling to help raise after all. Even better her brother will be one brought up in peace not war and in a home not someone stomach. Grimacing at the thought of being inside her father again. She was knocked out of thought from a stirring on the other side of the room.

"Hestiaaaa...Hestiaaaa…" Moaned Rhea

Hestia was at her mother's side as fast as could be and with the smallest smile on her face and a hint of worry in her eyes she lovingly said "Mother, don't fret I am here, and so is your newest son and my baby brother"

At the sound of the word son Rhea's eyes shot open as her body was immediately in a sitting position on the bed. "Please let me see my new baby boy" Rhea pleaded with tears of joy in her eyes.

Hestia's smile widened at the sight of her mother being so happy after all that just happened. "Of course mother" spoke softly as she handed the baby over to the open arms of her mother.

Rhea's whole body relaxed as soon as she held her youngest child in her arms and looked at first at the small patch of raven black hair, then to his cute, chubby baby cheeks and at the moment the eyes of her newest son opened. The most memorizing eyes Rhea has ever seen in her life. Black as night with swirls of gold throughout. Holding her new baby close she whispered just loud enough to actually emit sound "You my gorgeous little boy, shall be called Perseus."
