Mother of Mortals

On the eve of her return to Olympus from her yearly journey circling the Earth, Hera, Queen of the gods and ardent protector of mortals, takes a moment to wistfully bear witness to the very last launch of humanity's soon-to-be-defunct space rocket programme. Perched upon a solitary mountaintop somewhere in North America's vast Boreal forest, the goddess encounters Prometheus, who reveals to her that her days of subtly guiding mortals in their heroic endeavors are far from over.Zeus, on the other hand, takes a dim view of his Queen's seemingly innocent chance encounter with his former foe, and begins to suspect that Prometheus harbors sinister intentions for his wife -- and for the gods of Olympus.Piqued by Zeus' paranoia, and encouraged by the goddess-Queens of old and the gods who dwell at the boundaries of the Earth, Hera defies her King, and undertakes a journey that will lead her to discover a past she had long forgotten, and embolden her to secure humanity's future as mortals set out to colonize the stars.
