Chapter 2: The Mortal Hero
As the Oracle faded, Selene set off on her journey to meet each of her destined mates. Her first stop was the mortal realm, where Alekos, the hero, was locked in battle with a mighty hydra threatening a nearby village.
Watching from a distance, Selene saw his bravery. With each strike, he grew weaker, his mortal form straining against the beast’s monstrous might. But his will was iron; he refused to surrender, even in the face of death.
Selene stepped forward, her mere presence illuminating the battlefield. With a flick of her wrist, she summoned chains of pure light, binding the hydra. Alekos staggered back, his breath ragged, staring in awe.
“Who...are you?” he asked, his eyes wide with reverence and wonder.
“I am Selene,” she replied, offering him a hand. “The goddess of wisdom and light, and it seems, your destined partner.”
Alekos hesitated but took her hand. In that moment, a spark ignited between them, a promise of a connection neither fully understood.
