Understanding Hera's Pain

"Hera Cruel."

She was known by many names and for the crimes she committed, and even for the crimes she didn't commit. Many feared her and what she was capable of. Others didn't even want any business with her. There were countless lives under her belt, and their restless souls would always creep up to her feet, trying to drag her to hell where she belonged.

However, Hera wasn't always as special and fearsome as she had become. As a child, she was just like any other child: curious, innocent, and a ball of sunshine. She hadn't always understood the environment she was growing up in. She had questions — thousands of them. Even though her parents, Vicenzo and Felice, tried their best to explain everything to her, it never answered all the questions in her innocent mind.
