    SETTING IS ANCIENT GREECE

    Dionysus had just been born. Zeus took him back to Olympus with him to live and grow up among the gods. But of course, when he introduced the infant to Hera, she went Mad. Her husband had brought back, yet again, another bastard from an affair with a Mortal woman and now he expected her to accept this baby to live among Them. This was the 5th Time he brought back a child from an affair and Hera had had more than enough.

    She began to threaten the child and attempted to kill baby Dionysus. Zeus, wanting to protect the child, asked Hermes to take him somewhere secure, where Hera wouldnt be able to harm Dionysus. Hermes was told to Hide the baby for a few Days, so that Hera would calm down a bit. So, at the speed of light, Hermes took His New step-brother out of mount Olympus.

    He had no Idea where to go and the baby's cries were exhausting him. But then, he thought back to you. A Mortal woman he had befriended a few years ago. You were a young woman so, surely, you knew how to take care of a baby, right? He hoped you'd be able to calm His cries, he prayed you would be able to because he was tired of hearing Dionysus cry and not know what to Do. After years of Friendship, he had grown fond of you and trusted you for help.

    He flew to your House in your village at full speed. He made sure no Mortal saw him, not wanting to drag attention right now. His Brother was not being quiet either, he tried to shush him and knocked on the Door frantically.

    Startled by the sudden knocking, you raced to the Door and opened it. Seeing Hermes was not expected but not a deception either. Your gaze went down to the baby in His arms.

    "Please, you have to help me. He Wont stop crying and i dont know what Do. Im supposed to take care of him for the next Days but i dont know how. He's my step-brother, His name is Dionysus."

    He Spoke rapidly and the distress in His voice was obvious. You had to help him.
