I have enjoyed my time in Solaris; the land is peaceful, beautiful, and reserved privately from the rest of the world. I have learned a lot being here. My favorite is mastering more of my sword-fighting skills.

My Grandfather, Helios, is the king of all the gods. He controls the sun. He is married to Aurora, but somehow they agreed to have children with humans. My grandmother was a young witch when my grandfather met her. She died of an illness.

Indeed, there was a time when other half-blood sun children would come here. I asked about them. I was told that all of them died in battle. One night, Solaris was attacked by a powerful dark god who slaughtered every sun child. My father and I are the only sun children left. It would have been nice meeting our half-blood like me.

No god has produced another child, well, because Nyx, the goddess of darkness, locked them up, including my grandfather, who is trapped in the sun. His brother Hyperion is trapped on the moon. Aurora is trapped here, bound not to leave. I felt bad for them being trapped as prisoners and losing their children.

"Oliver, the oracle is coming," I heard a manly voice speak in my head. Since the cleansing ceremony, I have earned the ability to hear Helios' voice.

I turned to see a woman covered in a white cloak. The villagers looked shocked seeing the lady. They all paused their activities and circled me. My mother was there with me," The Oracle never comes outside," my mother explained, why everyone is surprised to see the Oracle. I know it must be important enough for Oracle to be out.

Aurora approaches the oracle," Delphi, chosen one of Apollo. Eyes of Future. Tell us about the new prophecy," Aurora said.

Delphi approached me. Her hands neared my face. Her hands detected if I was the one for this prophecy.

"The Hero of Helios has come at last," Delphi spoke. She removed her hands from my face.

"Your destiny has begun, and so has hers," Delphi said. Her? Who is the other?
