The gods all stared in shock at the Titan of Life. They couldn't believe he was here but Zeus, furious, asked one question.

"Who's your parent?"

"Well you should know, younger brother." Exodus replied. Zeus was right, the way this stranger's eyes twinkled reminded him of himself.

"When were you born?" Athena asked. She wondered where he had been all this time.

"I was born after my sister Hestia." He looked at her with an admirable smile "I wasn't swallowed. I escaped and was given to mother Gaia where she taught me the way of the Earth."

Flags flew up in Zeus' head. This was his latest and newest enemy.

"You retrieved Father's scythe.You are the enemy!"

"No brother. I simply longed to see my father and in the process, retrieved his weapon. I learned about the war from a nymph named Shadow. She is now under my protection. " He turned his face towards Zeus, his eyes flaring with a menace. "and I would appreciate it if you stayed away from her. I know all about your reputation."

Zeus was taken aback as the other gods burst out laughing even Hera. They all introduced themselves. Exodus complimented everyone even Aphrodite. He called her "unnaturally beautiful" but before her head could get to big, Athena burst her bubble by telling her that she was unnatural.

Exodus then explained that he was the Titan of Elements, Life, Creation, Heavenly Spirits and Creatures. He explained how he created things by spilling his blood, like the dinosaur. He also explained how he could control the different elements : water, fire, air and earth.

"But water is in my domain. " Poseidon complained.

After a lot of complaining he finally got them to calm down. He explained that he kept the elements in boundaries. For example: he kept water from being fire and lightning from being earth. He restricted what was considered to be untamed.

And there we have it, folks. The beginning of Exodus' life. Now to his adventures.
