When Hera learns of Zeus's indiscretion that brings about Athena she knows that she must do something to get revenge. She decides to have an indiscretion of her own which results in the birth of Hephaestus. Upon seeing his disfigurement, Hera is ashamed and throws him off of Mt. Olympus where he should have died. But he doesn't. Instead he is brought up in a monastery and trained to become a blacksmith. He is leading a happy human life with a prosperous career and even the promise of true love, that is until he learns of his true parentage.

The second and final short story in this little series I've construed. This little sequel plays off the many heavy themes and elements presented in the first story. Around 2K words in length( upon its completion), this wraps up my first little short story Duology. This story follows the personal view of two coastal survivors, young Charla & Denny, in the wake of a nuclear apocalypse. The story intends to depict a glimpse of communities of sea-faring people and the environment they are fighting to survive in. Between perils of sea and perils of land, will the coastal peoples obtain life or death?
