Ever since Zeus had discovered the library in this city, he daily went there to read up on world history. During the many years after Olympus the god hadnât paid much attention to what all the gods of the many different pantheons were up to, or to who they even were. But now that he was living with them in Mount Phoenix, he felt it was high time to change that. It was always smart to know who was living in the same city as you. Especially when they could be a possible threat towards you. It would be even better to discover that a certain someone who owed him for a certain something he did many years ago lived in this city as well. So Zeus dutifully went to read through some books and look at some artifacts each and every day. Slowly but surely learning about the different gods and their past.
Enjoying the power of wisdom he felt each and every time he strode into the building, he thoroughly appreciated all the work the sun goddess had put into this wonderful collection. He had always loved knowledge and people who strived to get it were people he liked to have deep conversations with. Those conversations could go about all kinds of topics, really. It had been a long time since Zeus had been able to converse with a philosopher. And oh, what did he miss those times in ancient Greece when he could talk for hours and hours with philosophers about the world. He had learned many a thing from the way mortal philosophers thought and he had done the same in return for them.
Heading down the entrance hall he was on his way to the âJapanese god sectionâ of the library when he caught sight of a young and beautiful female. Instantly recognizing her from the apartment building he lived in he had never introduced himself to her before. Deciding to change that today, the god made a swift turn to the right so he could head over to her. âHello, Iâm Zeus,â he greeted her with a friendly smile. âIâm sorry for disturbing but I saw you a couple of times at my apartment building and I wanted to introduce myself.â Taking her fully in with his gaze he wondered how (and if) this beautiful demi-god would be related to him.
being a child of athena, jennie naturally has an affinity for knowledge. day after day, she canât seem to satisfy her voracious appetite to learn new things. jennie picked up a couple books to read and set them at a nearby table. normally, she would be studying, but sheâs taking a break. sheâs reading the tale of amaterasu and her brothers, susanoo and tsukiyomi. itâs one of her favorite books. she enjoys reading about susanooâs adventures most of all. it would be an honor to meet him someday. as far as she knows, he doesnât currently live on mount phoenix. Â Â
the demigoddess slowly looks up from her book when she notices a man standing in front of her. he introduces himself as zeus. of course, jennie is all too familiar with that name. heâs athenaâs father, which technically makes him her grandfather. weird, she thought he would be a lot older. instead, he looks like a man in his thirties. of all places, she never expected to meet him at the library. yet, sheâs aware that nearly everyone stops by here.Â
instead of introducing herself, she bluntly remarks, âyouâre really zeus? i thought you would look a little more... experienced.â she clears her throat. the demigoddess chooses her words more carefully as to not upset him. she has heard that he can have quite a temper; his known past isnât necessarily the most pleasing. âiâm jennie, athenaâs daughter.â maybe she can win him over since sheâs his granddaughter. her lips curl into a little smile. âiâm assuming you know who my mother is.â   Â
