//Circe// Part 2

2

As the long days passed Circe could not leave her new home. The days were long, and her house were enchanted so no dust will ever have to be wiped. The house was also filled with rooms that she could be in. Circe told herself that this house could never be her home, home, she didn't really miss any of her family, besides her little brother and her love. Glaucus. Oh, how she missed him.

Every week that went by made her feel more and more lonely. Circe became more and more curious. Right before she left, Aeëtes, her brother, told her she doesn't have the power to bless the sailors. She didn't have the power from her father either. Circe was more powerful. She was a sorceress. The same powers as the Olympian Hecate.

As it now had passed a couple decades Circe had let her hair grow long. As young her sisters had tricked her into cutting her hair short and it took a while to grow back. Now her hair was the colour of the sun light and long and wavy as the sea. Her skin could reflect the sun light. And she had cheek bones that could cut a diamond. The eyes of Helios daughters were golden and was said to shoot out rays of light. These eyes did also Circe have.

After all this time she had still not gotten used to the fact that when she woke up there was food on the table and when she wanted lunch there was food on the table, at dinner time there was also food on the table. She could also just go in the kitchen to grab food. Without gaining any weight.

Her powers was called many names. One of them was witchcraft. She got better and better at it as the decades went by. She grew more and more beautiful. She became an enchantress and had many talents. She had the voice not of an angel, but to enchant an angel. She was an expert in changing people's forms. The first change she made was Glaucus, marking her amazing talent.

Her house was more like a castle. Bound to make her miserable, but her castle was a way for her to lure people. As she was miserable her siblings may have been worse if you see it through the eyes of a well-known half blood. Theseus. The hero who defeated the Minotaur. Circe had a sister, Pasiphaë. The queen of Crete and wife of King Minos. She was the mother of the Minotaur a well-known monster in Greek Mythology. Her brother Aeëtes was the keeper of the golden fleece and father of Medea. He was also the only one who loved Circe and respected her. Her last brother, Perses made nothing special of himself.

As Circe was brought up in the house of Helios, she had learned to respect the Olympians. One of them especially. Athena was Circe's favourite gods and she liked her because of her brain and self-esteem. Athena has a big part in Circe's fate and life. Not only Athena, but her fellow God, Hermes. Those two would have a big part of Circe's life.
