Athens is the capitol and heart of Greece, birthplace of heracles and his mortal younger brother iphicles. It was founded by Athena after a contest of whoever gave the Athenians the better gift would become their patron.

"We've made it! This is the heart of Greece, Athens, my home town" said heracles as he leads Pegasus to land on the ground. He and maxion got off of Pegasus before it dissipates into a cloud and rises to the sky, nemesis lands on the ground and said "I wonder how my siblings are, I already know that my brothers thanatos and hypnos are in the underworld as punishment". "I'm sure father will forgive us for letting you free even though you joined with the titans" said heracles, but nemesis sighed and said "it's not like me and my siblings joined them willingly, the titans themselves are very... convincing when it comes to involving mother". Maxion points at the statue of athena in the center of town "are you pointing at the statue of Athena? They say she founded this very capitol by besting uncle Poseidon in a competition, from which it's about who gives the best gifts to mortal humans" said heracles "really? I've heard about it since back when I was but a disembodied spirit" replied nemesis.

The trio explored the market place until they encountered two teenage strangers fighting the thugs who stole priceless urns, one stranger conjures up a torrent of water and it gushes onto one thug causing him to fall, the other stranger was dueling the other thug "should... help?" Asked maxion but heracles shook his head "no, let's see what it takes for those two strangers to become heroes" he replied. At the end, the two strangers have beaten the thugs as everyone was watching. "Who are you two boys?" Asked nemesis, the stranger sheathed his sword and answered "I am remus, from Atlantis" the other stranger nodded and answered "and I am Plato, also from Atlantis". Heracles chuckled and said "well, you two got what it takes to be heroes. I'm very impressed by your resolve that you have beaten those thugs" Plato and remus got confused by what he said.

"Heroes? Who are you, sir?" Asked remus "I am heracles, son of Zeus and hero of greece" replied heracles but remus laughed. Plato smacks remus at the back of his head "no remus, it's very rude when it comes to laughing at legendary heroes" he said, remus rubs his head in pain and said "who is that winged woman and that scrawny wimp wearing armor?". Nemesis took that sentence as an offense and said "hmph! You mortal boy have no respect for me. I am nemesis, the goddess of retribution, and this "scrawny wimp" is maxion who is made by the Olympians themselves!" Remus was in disbelief and yet shocked, Plato cleared his throat and said "I'm sorry for my friend being brash, we're not used to meeting divine heroes nor gods and goddesses that are hear". Nemesis calmed down a bit as she folded her arms, maxion felt a bit of anger at remus, but heracles kept that friendly smile and asked "what brings you here to my hometown?" Remus explained that he and Plato are about to visit their friends cousin who lives in Athens.

Heracles nodded as he understood, maxion tries to explain that he, nemesis, and heracles are traveling to prevent a wicked immortal general from resurrecting the ancient weapon of the titans. Nemesis fills in the details by explaining that to do that, one has to destroy the taphus core in which will cause the taphus to explode, the safest way is to free the gods of eld bodies that are sealed within the taphus core and take them away from the taphus, that will cause the taphus to deactivate. "I see, then what professor arlmoa says is true... then the water taphus of Atlantis actually does contain a god of eld" said Plato as he realised by what the taphoi true purpose is other than pumping ether to amplify magic, suddenly, the guards arrived and arrested the thugs before they can recover and get away "took you long enough!" Said remus irritated. "In any case, you two can find your friends cousin while the three of us go to the temple of Athena to acquire her blessings" said heracles "alright, we'll see each other again... even though I still think you're an imposter" said remus but Plato hit him on the arm. After that, both Plato and remus left to find their friends cousin while heracles, maxion, and nemesis walked down the street to the temple of Athena.
