Background[]
In this universe Aphrodite is the daughter of Zeus and Dione, the mother goddess. She was born under a betrayal by Zeus to his wife, Hera. This made Aphrodite's life growing up extremely bad as she was abused by Hera for the betrayal of her father. However as she grew up she was told stories of different worlds, universe and dimensions, giving her hope for the future. Aphrodite was the one every female was jealous of as she was blessed with the looks, personality and had every male on Olympus and throughout the different worlds pine for her.
As she developed in age so did our relationship with those around her. Hera put aside their differences as she realised Aphrodite never had a motherly attachment due to her real mother disowning her. Soon Aphrodite and Hera became like mother and daughter. Hera watched over Aphrodite while she was being trained to sit on the throne of the Goddess of Love.
Aphrodite watches over the different worlds and dimensions maintaining love throughout them. However this is threatened when news arrives on the resurrection of Kronos. Luckily for Olmypus a prophecy has been unearthed. A prophecy that speaks of a Guardian coming to save them...
