People of Rome watch as Emperor Constantine swore off the Roman gods and became the first Christian Emperor. With it the power the Olympus had gained in the rise of the Roman Empire has fallen and the only thing keeping them tied to humanity was the Greek Beliefs, but even the gods knew it was a matter of time before that failed them too.

All twelve olympians stood around the Hearth in the center as Constantine was baptised.

"Well, that's it," said a god with golden blonde hair holding a bow and quiver full of golden arrows. "Our reign is practically over."

"There must be away to save ourselves," A woman with dark ellgeant hair said.

"There is," the man in the head throne said brushing his black beard as his stormy blue eyes stare at the Hearth. "We must cut ourselves from humanity."

The Earth shall shake

Titans roar as Giants awake

The last hope come when dream will tell

That the heroes will come and restore all
