Her story
Hestia.. The oldest, yet the youngest of the gods.. The first born, the first swallowed.. The last to come out.. Yet one of the Most respected and Known for being one of the 12 main gods/goddess of Olympus.For years and years she was on of the few goddess that remained a virgin goddess, and delt not with mortal affairs, yet is always worshipped..She is the Goddess of The Heath, The Home, and Of Hospitality after all.. Not a day went by without her receiving offerings.Now, time passes differently for the gods, but slowly, day by day, weeks turned to months, and months to year, and soon.. almost no Mortal had worshiped her, and the other gods.Time passed and they had grown complacent with the lack of offerings.. But one day, hestia started to receive them, at first it was every once and a while, but soon it turned to weekly, then to daily.. Hestia grew curious of the mortal that had been given her such gifts.She had glanced into the mortal world to see, viewing a small family, a mother and father, raising two beautiful daughters and an Older son..They seemed to live in a small village, and the local bakery at that! Watching and watching, she couldn't help but admire the family, the way they always kept their hearth lit at all times, they even prayed and offered the first loaf of bread of the day to her every day..! Sure, when others in the village asked, they may have lied and said it was for "the one true god", but she knew why, and besides, they always asked for her forgiveness after each time.Finally, she was curious about something, and decided she would go down to the mortal world. Disguised as a teenager, bruised and roughed up, she stumbled in around closing time for the bakery, opening her mouth before she collapsed, "fainting" before the Son..When she "came too", she was in a bed, her "wounds" carefully wrapped, and the son sitting by her side, asleep on the chair as the sisters was at the foot of the bed, the middle child running off to get their parents while the youngest gently moved to wake her brother.As the parents walked in, the mother traded places with the son, moving to hold a hand to feel Her head, checking for a fever.."Poor thing? Where did you come from dear? What happened?" The woman asked..She was quick with her answer, saying how she's an orphan that's living with her Older Brother and his Wife in the near by woods for the time being, and that they had sent her to go fetch some bread, but she had been chased by some wild animal while on her way and took more then a few tumbles while running from it.After making sure she was truly okay, the gave her a few goods, free of charge despite her offering to pay, the sent her on her way with their Son to help protect her.Walking with him, he opened up to her, telling her of all the amazing sights, and things near by, even offering to shower her them while she was around, to which she would agree too, when ever she would get a chance, which.. she had never plan on actually having one,.. But soon, the approached a cottage deep in the woods, one she had conjured up.. And they say their goodbyes..Returning to Olympus, she was questioned by A few of the other gods, but she said nothing, only laughing and gently brushing them off before she went back to her kitchen, preparing a meal for the others.Little did she know that the oldest son had started to fall for her doing his own research, her started to worship Aphrodite, the Goddess of love.. And thanks that, she found out more then Hestia had let on. Aphrodite decided to Encourage her meeting him, and visiting the Family, Saying "perhaps they'll tell you why they worship you" and such things..As the years pass she still visited them every so often, even taking different forms of animals to check the family and watch him grow into a strapping young adult.. One day, the decided to share with her that they worship Hestia.. Their great great grandmother, had fled from Greece and taken shelter in this small English village when she was younger, and at the time, avoided showing their worship in fear of being killed for their religion, so she past stories to her childern, and they pasted it to them.. And the decided to honor it, be it even in secret..Another year passed, during which a war had started at the borders, and more men were becoming soilders.. Worried, she visited every day.. The son, wanted to make his family proud, and wanted to go and fight, but she begged him to stay, and he wasn't one tobsay no to her.. But, soon, the war grew closer, and he had be recruited.. She should of tried to stop him.. But, she knew she wouldn't be able to, she may be a goddess, but she want one to interfere with others choices.. before He left, he proposed to her, his words "Ever since metting you, it's like cupid struck my heart, aphrodite blessed me by us meeting, and When I return, I'd... I'd would love to be by your side. As the gods as my witness. Will you marry me?" She, couldn't deny she had grown feelings for him, and accepted, swearing thatbthe day he returns, they would be wedded..But, that day never came..Worried, she would stay couped up in her abode, to scared to check in on him or the family... So long as she recived her offers, she knew they were fine..But, one day, her offerings had stopped, so suddenly... Panicked she appeared at the doors of their home but... It was in ruins, burned down, looking around, the village was in complet ruin, smoke still rising from a few homes.. Raided.. trembling, she made her way inside the home. A few steps in and she saw them Eyes widened at the the site of of half burned and blooded corpses huddles together, barely noticing the letter clutched loosely in a burnt hand.Delicately, she picked it up, and read it's contents. And slowly, the sky's darkened, and rain poured down as tears streamed down her face.. He was dead.. She knew it would come one day but to have him ripped from her so soon?Devastated she returns to Mount Olympus, sobbing as she mourns their deaths.. The other gods try to consult her but only aphrodite truly reacher her and helps her in her grief..Now, Centuries have passed, now modern day and she's realizing not many people feel like she they have a home, so she goes to earth to change that..Using her lost loves name as an ailas.Quinn Baros
