The Death of Metis

Zeus with a disheartened expression as he made his way to Metis's palace.

"Why? Why must she die for that fate to be averted? Why can't there be another way?" Zeus questioned himself as tears threatened to pour out of his eyes.

Meanwhile at Metis's Palace, Metis sat on the bed in her bedroom waiting for her inevitable demise by her husband.

"I just hope father does not takes the news of my death hardly" Metis said.

She was trying to prevent a war and does not want to cause another one because of her decision.

While she was still in deep thoughts, she heard the door to her room opened so she turned to see who it was and love and behold it was Zeus himself and looking at his expression, she knew that he has already come to a conclusion.

"How have you been?"

He asked while also taking a seat on her bed and wrapped his arms around her.

"Apart from taking care of the child, I have never be any better" said Metis with a sad smile.
