Chapter 79: Story

"So you're saying you were sent to Crete Island by Oceanus, the God of the Ocean, and then raised by a goat?"

"That makes you a foster child of Oceanus, in a way."

Once Zeus's identity was recognized, the battle ceased. Overawed by Hecate's strength, and curious about his own origin, Zeus and the two goddesses made their way to an island.

Although the Moon Goddess seemed reluctant to get involved, she followed along at Hecate's urging. The two goddesses met by chance over the ocean, and because Selene's family was at odds with the Divine King, and the Moon Goddess herself was not so assertive, she ended up becoming one of the few deity friends of Hecate.

Unlike Selene, Hecate was not afraid of Zeus's feud with the Divine King at all.

"A foster son, perhaps, but Oceanus probably didn't care much for me."
