⊱.·:*¨༺ ♾ ༻¨*:·.⊰

In the beginning, the Theogony tells the story of the universe's journey from nothingness, Chaos a primeval void, and out of the void emerged Gaia (Earth), Ouranos (Sky), Pontos (Sea) and Tartaros (Underworld).

The Gods of the ancient Greek pantheon are divided into various categories. The first of these are the Olympian Gods, Titan Gods, and Primordial Gods, they represent the three generations of deities to rule the cosmos. The next five categories divide the Gods by domain, namely the Gods of sky, sea, earth (agrarian & rustic), and underworld. The final sections contain the daemons, minor deities or spirits representing abstract ideas, emotions and conditions, and apotheosed mortals.

The Titans were the pre-Olympian gods. According to the Theogony of Hesiod, they were the twelve children of the primordial parents Ouranos (Sky) and Gaia (Earth), with six male "Titans"— Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Iapetus, and Cronus and six female Titans, called the Titanides or "Titanesses"— Theia, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, and Tethys.

The Gods of Olympus were the main Greek Gods who lived on the top of Mount Olympus. The Olympian Gods rose to power by defeating the Titans in the War of the Titans, also called the Titanomachy.

There are Twelve Olympians whose major deities of the Greek pantheon, which are Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Hermes, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Ares, and lastly Hestia or Dionysus.

. . . . .

The offspring of a deity and a mortal is called "demigod", and the earliest recorded use of the term occurs in texts attributed to the archaic Greek poets Homer and Hesiod. Both describe dead heroes as hemitheoi, or "half gods". In these cases, the word did not literally mean that these figures had one parent who was divine and one who was mortal. The term demigod is ultimately derived from the ancient Greek term "hemitheos" with the prefix "hemi-" translating to English as "half, partially, slightly inferior" and "theos" being the term for "god."

• The Hemitheos Series is based on Greek Mythology.

• The book series is inspired by many stories and films, so I would like to thank these masterpieces for giving me so much inspiration, like super!! Percy Jackson & the Olympians Series (Book & Film), Harry Potter Series (Book & Film), How to Train your Dragon (Film Trilogy) etc. 

• The book series is also inspired by my most favorite Filipino Greek Mythology based saga from my fave author— Semideus Saga by ate yam ^^ here's the username of ate mahriyumm. I super love her works, that's why I'm also dedicating this series to her♡

• There's a lot of grammatical errors and typos here and I hope y'all can understand, I will really appreciate your nice corrections. I'm really not that good on the construction of words, both Tagalog (even if it's my first language haha) and English, so please bear with me♡ I also put my very own twist in this series, by adding some stuffs that is not in the greek myth to broaden the plot.

• I was really young when the idea of creating this series came to my mind, so I know there's so many errors that you can encounter, but I'm really working on it ^^ (a lil trivia) I worked on this when I started a schoolwork back then, a novel analysis. That time, I was so into researching about the greek mythology, and thankfully I came across with the Lightning Thief of Mr. Riordan. Inspired by his masterpieces, ideas started to pop up to me, but it took me a year on deciding if I should really start writing this. Then before that, I had to do a lot of research and planning to come up with this work. So, I'm really glad to introduce the first book of the series—
