This tale begins in the state of New York on a sinister blood moon night it was raining heavenly and thunder was rumbling as if Zeus knew himself the danger that had just entered the world.Under the sinister blood moon a child was born and the moon stood a witness of the child who held the world's fate in the palm of his hand . He was born at home his grandmother as his midwife ,"I shall name him Kona for he is my strength and my weakness ,"his mother said as she held her in her arm . The child grew up normal but something was different with him not only was he intellectually smart for his age but he never had any illness or futal injuries even when he fell or had fatal accident as he grew something that was peculiar to many except his grandmother who seemed to know what was going on with him. It was in May during the summer holidays when everything begun changing in Kona's life he was going to turn sixteen soon that day when he came home he found a strange man talking to his grandmother and his mother was in her room crying ."What's wrong mum ?Why are you crying mum?"Kona asked his mother ."Your grandmother wants you to go with him ,and leave me ."his mother spoke at her peak of melancholy."Kona come here with your mother here we want to talk with the two of you !"his grand mum called to them ."It's okay mum there must be a reason for this let's go and see what she has to say grandma is wise and she knows whats good for us all ,"Kona said, this made his mother realise how grown a man his son had become ,he had begun speaking like the man of the house ever since he had realised the absence of a father figure in his life not only did he speak but also acted like the the man of the house . In the living room his grand mother begun to speak ," I believe in you Kona and as a man it won't be had to digest what am about to tell you so listen .You've had about gods of Greek well am here to tell you that they aren't myths and you are but one of they're demihuman children and it is time to tell you the truth ,we don't know who your father is since your mother was drunk the day they met but as per now you're not safe with as so we are sending you to stay with the other demigods in the DMD phantom island there your father will reveal himself to you and you'll be safe ." All this was too much for him to take the world begun spinning and then all went blank ,the next thing he knew was that he was in some kind of flying chariot and then he blanked out again and finally when he gained his conciousness he found himself in a room covered with linen on its walls the bed he was on was made of a very soft material,he still felt alittle fuzzy,he looked around and saw a lady who was not so human as he was green and has leaves instead of hair,"How are you Kona you sure got gut I'll tell you that most new comers freak out when they see me ,ow!excuse my manners am Aphilia an nymph and your nurse ."the lady spoke all this while Kona was quite and still like a statue trying to recall what he was missing then with a sharp pain as if he had head-on collision with the memory the words of his mom before he fell fully unconscious,"Don't ever forget that I love you son....."as he remembered this a surge of emotions filled him and he bursted out like a lost two year old ,"Where's my mother ?I want my mother !"he demanded as he went out of the nursing room he shouted and the nymph went to call the man who had brought him .

CHAPTER 6

Willow and his staff members even the nymph nurse moved among the students looking for the mark on their arms but they were shock to find none of them did not carry it . After that the gods went back to the temple with the staff ,who fear was written on their faces .

Athena nearly realise her chaos auro by the revelation of Willow,"Did you look carefully,"she enquired with a mixture of fear and anger evident in her tone . Willow scampered back in fear of the goddess's wrath .

Athena on realising this quickly composed herself and apologize for her ungodly behavior , they were back to the drawing board even Chiron was out of thought ,this not only made them uneasy but also confused.

Afterwards the gods left without a word leaving the demigods astounded and confused, Willow was forbidden to inform them why the search had been done thus the island stayed in a state of confusion and unease from that day the daughters of Athena who did not want to tarnish their titles as the daughters of the personification of wisdom herself were up front in spreading their rumors which they coated with huge vocabularies such as hypothesis of their researchs .

Kona's dreams begun to get even wild as time went by as if raging due to luck of attention like a child wanting to be breastfed , things begun getting out of control when he begun waking up next to Zeus's statue in the temple in the middle of there island every morning.

His dream changed from seeing the peach of Tartarus to seeing a sword that glew with a fierce scarlet blood red on the edges as if sharpened by blood,it hilt was made of gold and the blade of silver with a dazzling blue crystal in the center of the hilt , the sight of the blade sent shivers down Kona's spine and he could feel his blood running out of his body as if trying he had been severed by the blade , he then heard a voice that seem to come from the blade ,"It is time master awaken for your reign is forth coming,find me for I've waited centuries for your awakening now find me remake me from the pieces the gods and titans made of my beauty and magnificence find my pieces then bring me forth so that your reign may be assured ,for I'm created to strengthen you and prevent you greatness from destroying all that is including yourself for your power is immeasurable, find me !Find me I tell you!..." And with that he feels great pain on his left arm that causes him to awaken ,he turns to look on his arm and their is the mark burnt onto his very skin ,the mark of the eternal life with many names that caused fear to the gods ,the infinity mark , the ma to k of eternals ,but the true name was the mark of heavenly retribution it's holder was the final judge with the power to judge both man , god and Titans .

He found himself in the temple,it was still dark meaning no one was around,he quickly stood up and went back to his village unable to comprehend the situation. In the morning he was quick to head to the library he looked through many books and even asked the librarian , (a hundred hand and eyed giant of some sort) Hecatoncheires he was known as Mr Vandel, he enquired from him about some of the known legendary bladed weapons known to men and gods but to his shock there was no historic record of the sword he had seen ,he went to Claire but even she was blank on the matter ,he tried his best to hide information on the sword by asking broadly to hint on the sword .
