===Story===
The children of the Titans of the first pantheon, Prometheus (meaning "forethought") and his twin brother, Epimetheus (meaning "afterthought") were vital characters in the story of ancient Greece. After the Gods overthrew the Titans, these brothers who were neutral during the war were spared an exile into Tartarus (unlike most of the Titans). Zeus especially admired Prometheus for his wisdom and bestowed him and his brother the job of creating humanity.It was Prometheus who shaped them in the image of the Gods out of clay. He then had Athena breathe life into their lungs before he taught them survival skills and farming... He also taught them how to sacrifice, slaying an ox and building two piles from its body parts - one for the Gods. Prometheus knew his creations were hungry, so he tried to trick Zeus. In one pile, he took the thickest fat and meat and hid them under the ox's stomach; in the other pile, he put the finest cuts on top but hid heavy bones underneath the meat. When Zeus chose his sacrificial pile, he took the one with the meat on top. But when he realized Prometheus' deception, he took his anger out on humans for eating the majority of the meat and took away their fire, which they needed to stay warm and cook their food.Partial to his creations, Prometheus tried to help them survive. Without any sharp claws or strong teeth, humans needed fire, but Zeus balked at relenting on his decision. So, the Titan of Fire came up with a plan. He took a dried fennel stalk and secretly put it between the wheels of the Chariot of the Sun. When the chariot returned, it brought back the smoldering fennel. And humanity has held fire ever since... When Zeus learned of Prometheus' actions though, his anger reached new heights. He bound Prometheus to a mountain with heavy chains and had a giant eagle eat his liver out every day. Every night, his immortal liver world would grow back, only to be eaten by the bird once again - a horrible and agonizing torment.This continued for many years until the demigod, Hercules, saw this grisly scene and felt pity for the noble Titan. He put an arrow through the eagle's heart and broke his chains from the mountain. Chiron, Hercules' mentor, then sacrificed his life for Prometheus' freedom. Since this day, Zeus surprisingly honored Chiron's sacrifice (immortalizing him in the night sky), and Prometheus was freed.
