An Olympian's Tale: What Truly Happened

Description

HAITUS

I'm sorry but this story will be on hairtus for a while :/ Please just enjoy the first chapter!!

 

Zeus is known as the “god of all gods”, but it wasn’t always like that. He used to be just another god serving under his father Cronus. Cronus was the leader of the titans who foresaw being overthrown by one of this children and swallowed them to avoid the matter.  However, their mother Rhea was able to stop Zeus from being swallowed. Zeus later came back and forced Cronus regurgitate all his children. Him and the other gods battled the Titans for 10 years in order to gain dominance.

The three brothers Zeus, Hades and Poseidon traveled to the underworld and freed the Cyclopes whom Cronus had locked up because of their power to create amazing weapons. As an act of gratitude, the Cyclopes gave each of the three Olympians a weapon- for Poseidon, a trident; for Hades, a magical helmet; and for Zeus, a thunderbolt, therefore making these three the most powerful Olympians.

When the war was over, the three brothers needed to decide who got what, so they drew lots. After drawing lots Poseidon had won the oceans, Zeus the sky, and finally Hades won dominion over the entire underworld. However, Hades was very unpleased with what he had gotten, though he left without a struggle. Being as far away as he was from everyone else, Hades never attended affairs from Olympus and rarely left the Underworld, now known as Hell.

These are all true facts that are believed today, however they’re not all historically correct. Only the gods themselves know the true story of what happened. For billions of years they had kept it to themselves and relinquished in the memories, but now they have bestowed the story upon me.

So now I give you the real story of the Olympians, also secretly known as Exo.

Foreword

Though some gods were known as women, the truth is in fact that they were all men.  The ones known as men would tell the humans of the others, explaining them as women and building the relationships and families that are now known as the Olympians while the others such as Aphrodite and Hera would hide away and refuse to be seen. Unlike popular belief, none of these gods were related. Zeus, Poseidon and Hades weren’t brothers just as Apollo and Artemis weren’t twins. As you all know, there were countless gods ruling over everything known, however only 12 will be specifically named in this story.

You know them as Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, Athena, Hermes, Aphrodite, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hephaestus and Dionysus. These are the names that they told the humans to keep their true identities hidden.  Their real names are Kris, D.O., Suho, Tao, Chen, Kai, Luhan, Xuimin, Lay, Sehun, Baekhyun and Chanyeol.

Also, fake relationships were told to the humans, along with real ones. Zeus and Hera were never together as everyone thought and Hera never became the second ruler of the gods, someone else did. And that’s what this story is about.

Kris:  king of the gods, [destiny, and justice, esp. for guest-host relations]

D.O.:  Supposed queen of the gods [marriage]

Suho:  ruler of the sea [earthquakes, sea]

Tao: ruler of the Underworld [death, wealth]

Chen: aggressive and wise [wisdom, weaving]

Kai: messenger of the gods [sudden enlightenment, theft, trade]

Luhan: born of sea foam [ love]

Xuimin: known twin of Artemis(Lay) [music, medicine, prophecy]

Lay: known for healing abilities [medicine, chastity, the hunt]

Sehun: god of war and lover of Aphrodite(Luhan) [war, discord, weapons]

Baekhyun: armorer and jeweler of the gods, [technology]

Chanyeol: god of wine [ecstatic inspiration]

Now that you know their names, let’s began shall we?
