One evening, Athena's mother, Artemis, caught wind of her daughter's departure for the mortal realm and decided to follow her discreetly. Unbeknownst to Athena, Artemis trailed her to a forest, where she observed her from a distance. Athena eventually made her way to the edge of a mountain, her eyes widening in surprise as she spotted another being beside her.
A mortal, she realized.
A frown creased her brow as she beheld the mortal boy, but her expression shifted to a sinister smile as she discerned a latent power concealed within him. A renewed sense of intrigue stirred within her, and she settled into a comfortable position, observing intently as her daughter interacted with the mortal boy.
There was something brewing.
