In life, we come across different people at different times of our lives. How they once were can change quickly to who they are, but what causes something like that to happen? Take this journey into a modern telling of a forbidden love story between the Queen of Olympus, Hera, and the King of the Underworld, Hades. The love that they share will result in a life being born, but not an ordinary life. No, a life that was born from both Light and Darkness that shall overthrow a tyrant King and rule everything from the highest of the Heavens to the lowest of the Underworld. Can this child live up to the prophecy told about her, or will she crumble under the pressures of life and the secrets it holds?

She was sure they would regard her with animosity, and she would not blame them if they chose to do so.
