Chapter 23 - 16 Meeting Hephaestus

On Olympus on a bed room you could see a certain golden haired god being shined upon by the all seeing titan Helios the sun sleeping on his bed after having a adventure living as a wolf.

A few moments later Darius our protagonist was letting out a yawning while streaching out his arms.

Darius pov

"Yawnn," said Darius while streaching out his hands "Now what should I do today?" He said while getting off his bed and picking out a new chiton/toga to wear for today then went to open his door to go through a few corridors of Olympus while thinking "Maybe I should meets my nephew's and cousins! How do uncle's usually act when meeting there nephews and nieces?"

Going about Olympus Darius saw many gods and goddesses around Olympus he saw one in the sky flying like the speed of wind and a other one shouting while trying to challenge other gods while a certain banging noice that sounds like metal clashing together.

Curious, Darius followed the sound to a certain work shop to see a very muscular big man with uneven shoulders with a huge bulging misshapen head with a red face covered with welts with a lot of body hair as if he was a bear along with a beard on his lumpy face with a scowl holding his hammer in the air while hitting a certain type of metal on his forge though surprised of his appearance as most of the gods he has met were attractive just shook his head and not be surprised anymore and did not seem to hold injustice at the man before him as they were certainly family.

Darius watched as the man used his hammer to pummel a piece of steel slowly shaping it into a sword in which Darius tilted his head in curiosity in a dog-like manner which he got as a tendency during his time as a wolf until the man lifted the heated sword using some tongs then put it in the water to cool down then looked towards Darius direction then said "Come in" .

In which Darius got startled before going into the workshop seemingly looked at the weapons on the walls and a few paper on a certain table showing certain plans on how to make the weapons then looked at the deformed man Infront of him who looked at him thinking of something then proceed to ask him "Who are you?" in which he says "I'm Darius who are you?"

Hephaestus pov

I was forging certain weapons made out of celestial bronze when I saw a handsome golden haired god with looks that could rival Apollo's that had a feast celebrated in his return as one of the brothers of the big 3 staring at me forging in curiosity in which I contemplated for awhile then continued working on my forge thinking the god would leave after a little while in which I was surprised as he stayed watching me forge a weapon in curiosity until I finished my work in which intrigued me seeing as this god thinking maybe this god is interested in the art of forgery.

I couldn't wait anymore and asked him to come in my work shop and asked him of his identity in which he said "I am Darius" while proceeding to ask me of my name I responded "Hephaestus".

Darius pov

Hearing his name I contemplated thinking of the names in Olympus while remembering a name Hephaestus one of the Olympians known for his art of smith and also the god of the forge craftsmanship and fire while thinking "his Hera's child right? doesn't that make him one of my nephew's?" then proceeded to say "Your Hephaestus? Nice to meet you I'm your uncle!" I said with a smile while raising my hand in a hand shake in which Hephaestus looked curiously before raising his sweaty hand then proceed to shake my hand.
