In the beginning, Chronos wrapped the egg of life in his hands and cracked it open to give life to the sea, the sky, and the earth. From these gods came new gods, new titans, trickling down through the ages, taking aeons.

Zeus, self proclaimed king of the gods, overthrew his own father as Kronos had done before him to gain domain over all of Olympus, imprisoning him deep in Tartarus. But, unbeknownst to Zeus, he was only fulfilling a time-old fate, that the past shall give way to the future so that life may continue to thrive.

This same fate would no doubt come again, but Zeus, in his arrogance, took no heed. He was a fool.

It was known among mortal men that the gods would on occasion take an interest in one of them and come to share a bed. So many children were born of these unions, but the stories overlapped and soon far too many were claiming to be the son of a god, and fewer were remembering their heritage. It is through mankind's conceit that they saved many blessed bloodlines from being eradicated. For it had come to the attention of our gods that their progeny was to overthrow them, taking their thrones on high, and Zeus, as well as many of his family, would not stand for it. For decades the world suffered their wrath, born of fear.

A thousand years has passed since the terror of the gods. Faith in them has long since been lost, leaving nothing but infrequent stories, but blood has a way of persevering as it did with Zeus, and his father before him. Fate can not be changed.

And so in the modern era were reborn the souls, destined for greatness that far exceeded that of any human before them.
