Mythos - the Awakening of Gods
In the beginning, mortals and Gods lived harmoniously, keeping the stirring of emotions and power in tow. Each had their role, their presence, and their mission. Those that kneel shall always kneel, and those that stand tall, shall always stand tall. This hierarchy has always been present, even amongst the Gods themselves. That is, however, until the true truth was reviled, not the falsities of following what you have just because you “should”. Zeus was comfortable amongst his kingdom; aligning the starts, the Sun, the wind, the rain, and all mortals in between. There was no questions, only answers. Maybe this is because the questions haven’t been asked. Maybe the questions haven’t been spoken from the correct lips. Maybe the lips of the true divine needed to pose the question. Alas, the world was “calm”, but some could feel the storm coming. Something about the current stage was not set up to last. A young, but motivated Goddess, Athena, was filling her role. Providing wisdom and courage, she prevailed. When war was the question, she was the answer, with a logical yet calm twist. Athena never reacted in a way that was thoughtless or filled with emotion. It was precise, it was logical, and it was honest. By guiding with wisdom and honesty, the mortals felt security. They felt belonging. They felt love. This was within an understandable, yet relatable, grasp for the ones that come and go. Athena didn’t sit high upon the mountain top, she ebbed and flowed, and entranced all those who took notice. The mortals were invested in a sense of security, belonging, and purpose. They were no longer on a lonely island as they have always been between the sun, the moon, and the stars. This purpose led them to giving it all to Athena, doing as she says, without resistance. There must be trust, there must be love. There was. Even the divine took notice. As the mortals on the land were already committed, the Gods of the elements on Earth took notice. The patriarch of the most powerful and abundant element on the earth, Poseidon, was so amused and impressed with Athena’s devotion to love, honesty, and wisdom, he dedicated all of his resources to her in a show of power and admiration. The sea is dangerous, yet beautiful, but above all else is powerful. As the mortals of the Earth, and the Gods of the elements were taking notice…. So was the God of all. The order in which the Chaos was kept at bay, Zeus had the power to make it all unfold. Zeus was NOT happy. Zeus was feeling the opposite of order; Chaos. Athena must be stopped, as the order belonged to ZEUS, not to the mortals. The most impressive display of power was shown for all to witness for all mortals and Gods to see, and almost put everything back into what it always has been. The rebellion must be stopped, and those that have turned away MUST face their actions. There was just one thing stopping them. That is the Truth. That is the love, and that is honesty. This is Athena. As Zeus was flexing his power, Athena thought through how to handle it. She would not be intimidated by the bright colors of Zeus’ metaphorical hide. She would rebel, and she would win. Those that believed in the truth would truly believe. In the end, love and honesty would win. True order would ensue, and things wouldn’t stay how they always have been, but instead become what they truly would always be.
