Friends:
Athena (fc: Gemma Arterton).
Athena and Althaia usually think alike and have similar morals and ideals most of the time and, therefore, get on very well with each other. Over the centuries, Athena has come to be her best friend.Artemis (fc: Kris Grikaite). Althaia has always admired Artemis' tamperament and strong will. Her integrity and inclination towards doing good and protecting mortals has earned her a place in Althaia's heart.Thalia (fc: Nathalie Emmanuel). The dramatic and playful muse of comedy never fails to give Althaia a good laugh. Her always positive attitude, funniness and eagerness to help everyone has made her a great friend of Althaia's.
Enemies:
Eris (fc: Eva Green). Eris stands for exactly the opposite of Althaia and that's why she dislikes her immensely. Althaia hates how the rivalrous and malevolent goddess always finds a way to cause trouble.Ares (fc: Scott Eastwood). Just like Eris, Ares advocates principles that go against Althaia's ethics and often, the goddess has to intervene between mortals to solve problems the loud and arrogant god has created between them.Aphrodite (fc: Vanessa Hessler). Many a time mortals have compared Althaia's beauty to that of Aphrodite's, sometimes even favoring her over the goddess of love and beauty. Aphrodite's jealousy has turned her against Althaia and she seems to always be getting in her way, but the goddess of peace always manages to handle any problematic situations.
Lover(s):
Being an immortal goddess, Althaia has had a majority of love affairs throughout the centuries of her lifetime, usually with mortals. Few of them truly stood out for her to the point where she dearly and deeply loved them.Danae (fc: Zoi Aggeliki Mantzakanis). Danae was an Athenian princess, well-known for her beauty. When Althaia saw her, she was mesmerised by the young, seductive mortal. She appeared to her and they started meeting frequently. They formed a romantic relationship and Althaia was so in love with her that she tried to find a way to make her immortal. In an attempt to grant her wish, Zeus turned Danae into a Wisteria tree, which would forever adorn Althaia's garden in Olympus. Danae was her first great love and she was devastated when she lost her.Adrastus (fc: Chris Hemsworth). Adrastus was a Trojan soldier whom Althaia saved from demise during the Trojan war, for showing great courage and rectitude. Adrastus fell in love with her and she couldn't help but develop feelings for him in return. The two started a beautiful, strong relationship, which ended when Adrastus died in another battle, before she could do anything to save him.Marina (fc: Joanna Halpin). Marina is a nereid, a water spirit. Her beauty, calmness and shyness drew the goddess in and, after spending time together, they fell in love. Althaia later married Apollo, but the two never ended their affair and still frequently meet each other.Apollo (fc: Max Irons). Apollo had been making advances to Althaia for years until she yielded to his charm. She used to regard him as a thoughtless philanderer but, in time, she came to recognize his softness, charisma, selfless and humourous nature. After thousands of romantic gestures towards her, like poems and songs written for her, she accepted his proposal and they started a relationship. She fell deeply in love with him, as did he, and they later got married and had three daughters.

UwU I really like how this one turned out! I have always been fascinated by the Greek mythology. Being Greek myself, it has been an essential part of my educational knowledge, already since elementary school, and it was one of my favourite subjects! Thanks for reading, bunnies, really hope you liked it! ♥
