Ancient Greece. When a new goddess is born into the Pantheon, the prophecy delivered at her naming ceremony sets in motion a chain of events that could destroy all of creation. With her powers bound and restricted, it would seem that she has no say in her own destiny - her overprotective mother is determined to keep the prophecy from coming true, whatever the cost. But out of the shadows, hope comes from an unexpected place. Hades, the dark, solitary Lord of the Underworld, is determined to give the girl something she's never had before: a choice.

Highest Rankings: #1 in Demeter #6 in Myths #3 in Greek Mythology Hades always loved his sister, Demeter. And when she became pregnant he was the one support she had. When Kore was born, Hades was distraught for reasons only really he understood. He is the god of the underworld, and with that comes knowledge of souls. And Kore, while she came to term, did not have one. She would not live pass birth. At least, until she did. She did because of a mother's love caused Demeter to do what he felt was unthinkable. With Demeter a recluse, Kore supposedly never have been outside, and Hera being bolder, Zeus resorted to asking for the help of the person who hated Kore the most in order to protect his child.

What would you do if, after getting drunk in a party and passing out somewhere you don't remember, you woke up in a cart that is pulled by a horse with two people speaking weird language and wearing white sheets over their bodies? You panic, obviously. Era never believed in Gods and magic. Why? Because it wasn't explained by scientists. She doesn't even change her view when she is thrown down the time hole and back to the ancient Greece -time when people believed in everything, especially Gods of the Olympus. But her talk of "Gods don't exist" lands her into a festival of the Gods - a festival where people marked by one of the Gods of the Olympus fight for their life by performing something sociated with the god that they represent.

The Odyssey (Greek: Ὀδύσσεια Odýsseia] in Classical Attic) is one of two major ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer. It is, in part, a sequel to the Iliad, the other work ascribed to Homer. The Odyssey is fundamental to the modern Western canon, and is the second-oldest extant work of Western literature; the Iliad is the oldest. Scholars believe the Odyssey was composed near the end of the 8th century BC, somewhere in Ionia, the Greek coastal region of Anatolia. The poem mainly focuses on the Greek hero Odysseus (known as Ulysses in Roman myths), king of Ithaca, and his journey home after the fall of Troy. It takes Odysseus ten years to reach Ithaca after the ten-year Trojan War. In his absence, it is assumed Odysseus has died, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus must deal with a group of unruly suitors, the Mnesteres (Greek: Μνηστῆρες) or Proci, who compete for Penelope's hand in marriage.
