I was nothing before I was something.
Artemis was lonely. She wasn't known for being much of a romantic but her heart had been taken by a mortal woman named Eleanor. They both wanted a child, just one would have sufficed. So my mother pleaded for her father to create life.
Surprisingly, he decided to give her his blessing, and then I was created. My mother sculpted me out of clay and he breathed life into me.
But you can't have a life without death, after all, that's what makes living so much sweeter. My grandfather needed a soul, which he decided to take from Eleanor.
Artemis was furious when she found that her lover was going to die. She raged and threatened and did everything she could, but nothing could sway him...
Eleanor Creston died of a heart attack on the night of my eighth birthday. I was lucky she was able to take care of me for almost a decade but secretly, I knew that her soul was slowly chipping away as I grew older.
I was killing my mama the longer I was alive and did nothing but watch.
She named me Odyssa. Which meant 'one who receives pain'. She must've resented me for taking her life because after her death came a world of pain for me.
Artemis knew she couldn't take care of me. She had other things to do and decided to drop me off in the middle of nowhere... That was where I met Luke and Annabeth and... Thalia. When we got to Camp Half-Blood, I was already claimed from birthright. Odyssa, the daughter of the Goddess of hunting, wild animals, and the wilderness.
Kids would've killed to have been claimed by their parents so I shouldn't complain. I should be grateful that my mother cared enough to send me straight to Camp Half-Blood to keep me safe.
Yeah, keep me safe. Like that's ever happened to a Half-Blood.
