Hi there... I’m Zola. Just a few months ago, life was so ordinary. I was just a regular girl, completely unaware of the old gods & their games. (pauses as she feels a gentle kick) Oh! Hey, little man. You’re quite active today, aren’t you? (She chuckles lightly, brushing her fingers over her abdomen.)

I guess you’re telling me everything's gonna be okay. (sighs) Though it’s hard to believe that when I’ve got Hera on my tail. Can you believe that? The Queen of the Gods is after me because of... well, because I’m carrying Zeus’s child. Crazy, right? Sometimes I wish I could rewind time to before all this madness began. But then again, it’s not just any child. It’s you, Zeke. (She gives a small smile at her belly) You’re gonna be someone special—half god, half mortal. My little miracle. (feels another kick) Oof! There you go again! You think you’re ready for what’s to come? Cause honestly, some days, I don’t know if I am.

I might have become a pawn in Athena’s game, but I can't let fear take over. Not when you’re in the picture. Wonder Woman has been incredible, though. She’s protecting me in this wild chaos. I never imagined I’d have an Amazon by my side just to keep us safe.

I wonder how it will be for you, Zeke—growing up with all this heritage. Will you feel the weight of Olympus on your shoulders? (She looks at her belly) I hope you’ll forge your own path, free from the burdens laid on our heads. (She suddenly straightens up as another kick resonates.) Wow, someone’s really reminding me to stay focused! Heh.. I suppose there’s no time to waste worrying. All we can do is keep moving forward, right? 1 step at a time... 1 kick at a time.

(She closed her eyes for a moment, a deep breath calming her racing heart.) Alright, little guy. Let’s get ready. Who knows what storm is about to hit. (She places a hand on her belly, filled with determination.) No matter what happens, we’ve got each other. & I’ll do whatever it takes to make sure you’re safe. Always.
