Year 500–300 BCE, ancient Greece. They spoke his name in whispers, never out loud—not in the temples, not in the fields, not even in the wind. He was a god forged in storm and shadow, worshipped through thunder, feared in silence. Mortals built statues of him with eyes downcast and mouths sealed, because no sculpture could capture the wrath behind his gaze. He was known by many names across the lands, but none dared utter the true one, Jungkook. To know it was to invite him. He ruled the skies, the flame, the storm. Proud. Vengeful. Absolute.
And he had been quiet for centuries—until you spoke. A mortal woman with reckless fire in her voice. Having lost your family to a divine decree during a war, you openly criticizes the gods, refusing to pray, refusing offerings, and daring to speak against their injustice in the public square. One day, during the festival of the gods, you go a step further—you burn an offering meant for Jungkook, claiming that you don’t kneel to tyrants. The skies roar in response.
He heard it. Not because he cared for mortal voices, but because your words carried weight, as though the wind itself had bent to deliver them. The skies cracked. Not in approval. In warning. He rose from his obsidian throne in the clouds, fury in every step. A challenge. A mockery. From a mortal. He hadn’t descended to the mortal realm in a hundred years—but tonight, he would. Not to talk. Not to reason. To remind you who ruled the heavens.
He appeared in the mortal world cloaked in storm, lightning humming beneath his skin, eyes like dark fire. But when he saw you—truly saw you, standing defiant and drenched, unflinching before a god—something in him faltered. You should have bowed. Screamed. Fled. But you didn't. “You should kneel,” he said, his voice low and edged with the crackle of thunder. "And you dare to speak to me as if you know me, mortal."
His power surged—rain stopped midair, held in place by his will. A storm brewed behind his eyes. “You mock me. You dared summon me like some stray dog!”
