The 13th Olympian

The Two August Forms

A.N:   Some have praised me for being a good poem writer because of the Fall of Athena and I am very much thankful for the complements so I decided to write another one though I am not sure if you would like this the way you like my previous poem. By the way the first chapter gained the highest reads while the rest seemed to be unnoticed. I'm quite upset about what happened, I hope you still read the following chapters though it's in paragraph form cause no matter how much I wanted to make every chapter a poem, I guess you will fine difficulty in understanding the flow of the story if ever I did that. I hope you'd be fair in reading every chapter :(

By the way this chapter is dedicated to my sis , CraziieStrawberry03 , thank you sis for the support!!! Sorry I was not able to give your character an appearance like what I promise. For everyone's information she played the role of Phoebe, the titaness of brilliance and of the moon way back high school. Ok that's it, enjoy...

Hephaestus' P.O.V

"Hurl him down to Erebus and leave him forever in torment,

Or rather a place in Tartarus that awaits his ashes of garments.

I, my queen, suggest this' be his castigation and punishment,

To be casted out of heaven and in hell for eternity he'll lament."

I entered the court expecting some kind of a deliberation,

A panel of jury, some sets of questions, queries and interrogations.

Luckily I guess they have just started the debate,

I smiled at the thought,’ glad I wasn't late...'

First to lay her judgment was the personification of all that is lawful and divine,

The said Libra who was believe to forever favor the righteous mind,

And of how punishment than reward should rule and prevail,

The divine justice, Themis on her golden scale.

"That was too much for him I must say,

To be tormented upon some furnace place?

Sister are you that brutal to give him such burden?

That was all just but against the law of Heaven."

And here is Dike on her stand of what is right and fair,

With a hammer on hand while seated on her chair.

Settled on her human intuitions and beliefs,

Never will let Themis sigh in relief.

"And what do you suggest my sister dear?,

Let Ares roam all over Olympus with fear?

Or maybe you want to reward him instead,

Was this where your human justice has lead?"

"Never did I say a thing; I am just laying some option,

To set the accuse free from blame was never my intention.

But your scale was bias for giving him such   misery,

That was way too much for an agony."

"He put himself to where now he was,

To sentence him death is all but just!"

"But we could not just simply kill this god,

He was a deity with a pure Olympian blood!"

 Athena then finally stood, “Enough of this will you!"

Then the sides were broken in two.

When finally the call was set,

All eyes were expectant for Athena's bet.

But giving her side turned the court in chaos,

Everything within a snap happened fast and furious.

Hades was never favor with her decision,

Making the prophetical war set sail in motion.
