What had occurred with Pandora was merely an incident, and the Olympian Pantheon was completely unaware of this turn of events.
By contrast, high above the Sea God Palace on the Pontus Euxinus, the conflict among the gods was intensifying.
The dome of the temple had been lifted off, allowing light to pour into the ancient hall.
Huddled in a corner, as the only mortal and the catalyst for this divine war, Andrea looked up at the gods above.
At this moment, the divine war had shifted from tentative probing to intense battle, with some already suffering and bleeding.
Overwhelming powers shook the skies, various Divine Artifacts shining brightly. Andrea could even clearly see, for the first time, bloodstains on Hera's fair arms.
Just as Athena was known as "the girl with the bright eyes" in the mortal realm, the Heavenly Empress was similarly famed as "Hera of the white arms." This was praise for her beauty as well as a description of her authority.
