Hades: from neglected child to lord of The dead

In the vast kingdom of Mount Olympus, where the gods reigned with power and splendor, a child was born. His name was Hades and he was destined for a life no one could imagine. From the beginning, Hades was neglected by his parents, Kronos and Rhea. While his siblings, Zeus and Poseidon, reveled in their parents' affection, Hades was left to his own devices. No one understood the darkness that resided within Hades, the deep desire for a connection that was denied him. As he grew up, he found solace in the shadows, seeking solace in the dark corners of the world. But Hades wasn't just hiding in the darkness. He desired power, a force that would make others tremble.
