Chapter 1

Hebe stood before the towering doors of Zeus's throne room, her golden pitcher clutched in both hands. She'd served nectar and ambrosia to the gods for centuries, but today she wanted more. Her dream was simple: to fill every divine court with joy and laughter. The gods were always so serious, so quick to anger. She believed they needed what she could give them—genuine happiness that spread like wildfire. She pushed through the doors. The throne room stretched before her, all marble columns and golden light. Zeus sat on his throne, reviewing scrolls with his usual frown. Hebe approached with careful steps. Her sandals clicked against the polished floor. She needed to convince him that the gods deserved better than endless meetings and disputes. "Father Zeus," she called out. "I want to build something new. A palace where every god can gather and forget their troubles." She set her pitcher down on a golden podium that stood nearby. "Picture it—a place where laughter echoes through every hall. Where Ares forgets his battles and Apollo puts down his bow." Zeus looked up from his scrolls. His expression softened just slightly. "And how would you create this joy you speak of?" Hebe lifted her pitcher, making it spin on the podium's surface. "With games and surprises. With moments that catch everyone off guard and make them smile." The pitcher wobbled and tipped, splashing a few drops of nectar that sparkled in the light. Zeus chuckled—a rare sound that gave Hebe hope. Her dream had taken its first step toward reality.
