Prologue

This is an ancient story written long before us.

It is a tale full of Gods and monsters,

divine wars and ghosts,

a tangled mess made

by the divine and the mortal,

mothers and daughters,

the sacred and the courageous,

wounds both healed and unhealed

and the grief that grows

in the absence of love.

There is joy and friendship too,

homegrown and pieced together

by careful, gentle fingers.

At the heart of this story

is a girl looking for answers.

At the soul of this story

is the divine Goddess within us all.

The Day I Was Born

The universe was on fire.

And the reason for this burning

was a family at war with itself.

They called it the Titanomachy.

The war between the old Gods

and the brand new.

Brother against brother,

sisters torn apart,

fathers fighting their children.

And what place does an infant

have among such bloodshed,
