We all know the most popular Greek myths, the Titanomachy, Gigantomachy, the Hesperides.
In another universe, different from ours fundamentally, the Greek gods exist, but there's a tiny li'l problem- we happened to have forgotten one of them. To be precise, the bastard son of Kronos and Aphrodite, the patron god of Sparta (what, you thought it was Ares? Don't let Alex hear that, legend says the last person to say it is still begging for Thanatos), the Olympian of time, Assasins, Fire, Technology and a lot of other stuff. Never fear though, I am here to document all of the changes our world has made to remove such an important figure from our lore. And if he happens to bump into Harry Potter and Izuku Midoriya and change the entire story well, in the immortal words of Eminem
"I'm just relayin' what the voice in my head's sayin'
Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just friends with the-"
So buckle in folks as we get the story of the leader of the Night Raid, that organisation even All For One won't turn his back on, Lord "Don't call me Lord" Alexander😉🙃🙃🙃🙃
Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and Beauty is forced into an unwanted marriage the very evening she emerges from the sea. While Hephaestus is not terrible to her, she can't help but be enticed by his forbidden brother, Ares, and the other Gods who send her longing glances.
Will she settle for Hephaestus or will she search for more for her own love story?
*This story follows along some of Aphrodite's romances while married to Hephaestus. This story will not be a perfect timeline but will however, follow along a rough timeline according to my other book, Hades and Persephone.*
*Also, Aphrodite has her faults. A fair amount of faults in fact! If you know her mythology she turns out to be a very vengeful, self-centred, and self-involved Goddess, but this story is all about her slowly progressing throughout her marriage to Hephaestus. A sequel will follow beyond once this marriage ends.*
*This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.
