"Aura.. wake up.." I could hear a calming voice purr in my ear. I couldn't wake up. It felt like being put into a deep sleep. It felt like being charm-spoken by Aphrodite herself. "Aura sweetheart.. WAKE.UP." The voice yelled this time. I opened my eyes feeling tense. I stood up, my feet felt like jelly. I looked around and saw nothing but the endless void.

"W-where am I?" I asked hoping someone would respond, thinking back at it now it was more of a rhetorical question. Then, a beautiful, tall lady wearing full battle armor appeared in-front of me. Athena? No... this woman has deep red hair.. "D-Do I know you..?" I asked.

"Probably not." The woman said in a stern voice, her voice was nothing like the voice I'd heard before.

"Well er c-could you tell me who you are then and why and where I am?" I asked.

"I am well your erm... mother... my name is Enyo as in the goddess Enyo like Ares' battle partner... I know it's a lot to take in. And, I have no idea where we are... but listen I don't have much time to speak to you. Zeus has FORBIDDEN us gods/goddesses to speak or contact the outside world but, I've made arrangements with Hephaestus but something must've gone wrong..." Enyo or my mother explained.

"So am I dreaming? Where is my er.. Body currently at?" I asked, my curiosity was killing me.

"Your mortal little body is safe, no-worries but I've received a prophecy about you talking on a quest despite having no time to train. I will only tell you this once. Trust, no, one." Enyo explained and she really meant it, it was evident from the tone of her voice, "Well I've got to go now, good luck."

The last thing I remembered was seeing Enyo.. well my mother put her hand on my face.
