Breathing: A Retelling of Greek Myth

The gods have failed humanity. Truth, subverted by virtue of their power, has become a mere tool to maintain their control over-inquisitive minds. There is a story you have been told and another you have not. Prometheus was a victim of Zeus' uncontrollable thirst for power. Athena, the goddess he loved, suffered for the very actions that led to his fall from the High Mountain of Olympus. Yet, he had to help humans. He had to help them because his own brother had to come back to him. Why did Epimetheus suffer such destiny? How was he, Prometheus, his older brother, to justify his passing? The Fates had spoken, the Titans were to be destroyed. But Prometheus found within himself the power to overcome all sorrow and become something greater than Zeus himself despite the decree of the Fates. These facts all, obscured by time and a god, jealous, who wanted all power for himself, are hidden in myth and meaning. The truth? The truth is hidden, by decree of Zeus. Venture to find it, and risk the anger of the Olympian god.
