Something that makes the Greek gods more relatable is how some of them had messed up childhood and youth
I mean just look at it
Hephaestus was literally thrown out by his own mother for being ugly and his mom never bothered to see if he was okay
As a new born child, the first thing Artemis saw when she came into the world was her mother in pain and suffering Hera’s wrath. A kid had become a midwife to her mother.
Apollo was exiled from his home by his father when he was still a boy and he was subjected to servitude for long time (for killing someone had assaulted his mother)
Ares was given away to be raised by a nymph, he was the despised even by his mother and father
Dionysus was turned mad by Hera and wandered over the earth, his adopted family was destroyed
Like holy fuck dude that’s fucked up
