## History

Alexia was trained by Chiron, a centaur, to fight for what is right and defend those who can't defend themselves. She is also the Leader of the Amazons and called herself "Grand Archon Alexia."

### Throughout the Series

In "A Call to Arms" Alexia and her men are chasing two demons, who manage to slip away from her and head towards the town.

Meanwhile, Heron collects some ore but manages to earn only two drachmas. As he returns to his mother, Electra, they hear noises and see Alexia, who informs them that she is looking for a demon. The townspeople deny seeing any, and she continues on her way.

The demon attacks him, but Alexia returns and starts fighting him. In a pinch, Heron helps Alexia, but the demon manages to escape. She and her men search the town for the demon. She sees a man hiding his face and attacks him. She sees he has the same wound she inflicted the demon and tells her men to arrest him.

Alexia gathers the people of the town and explains that an army from the east descends upon them. She burns the man with a hot iron to reveal that he is a demon. As the man turns, he tries to tell them that they are the strong and the humans are the weak, but she beheads him before he finishes speaking.

In the morning, Alexia tells Heron that he fought bravely and invites him to join her to fight against demons and protect the town. Heron has no such desire as they had forsaken him and his mother. Seeing Alexia leaving, Heron states that he should have gone with her.

In "Past is Prologue" Alexia inspects the map she took from the demon and realizes there is a map within the map. Demons then reveal themselves wanting the map back. Alexia's troops are easily defeated, but she manages to escape. Alexia then appears being chased by a three-headed dog.

In "The Raid" Heron and Alexia fight a three-headed dog and manage to kill one of the heads. As the demons come, they run towards the town. Heron tells them they can escape using the mines and heads to look for his mother.

A demon tracker returns, stating that they picked Alexia's scent, and Seraphim then kills Aratus as he doesn't need him anymore.

The demons are about to catch Alexia, and Zeus meddles, causing roses to grow and hide her. Seeing he interferes, Hera decides to do so as well and sends Alexia's cape towards Electra, making the demons go after her.

In "A Monster is Born," Alexia comes out from hiding and sees all the dead people.Elias who holds Electra tells her that the man she looks for is taken captive and she leaves.

In "Escape or Die," Alexia reaches the centaur village, where she meets her mentor, Chiron. Alexia knew that Chiron would be able to read it, which makes Chiron comment that if she knew it, so would her enemy.

In that moment, demons led by Seraphim show up and Chiron explains that they arrived little before her and he could risk a war and endanger his people. Alexia starts fighting them, but before she is killed, Chiron saves her, giving the map and commenting the deal was the map for Alexia's life, however Seraphim tells him to choose between her or his people and he lets them take her.

In "Back to Olympus," Elias tells Heron that he is the key in this war and wants to help him. He tells Evios that he is aware what deal he made and he needs to redeem himself, so he must go with Alexia to Melidani and navigate the labyrinth to find the giants remains and burn them.

Heading towards Melidoni, Alexia realizes they are being followed and sees Chiron. He gives her a copy of the map he managed to make and explains that they can enter Melidoni through the Fields of the Dead.

In "The Fields of the Dead," reaching the Fields of the Dead, Chiron explains that its there that the gods fought the giants. They need to cross it, but shouldn't rush and never turn around as it will cost them their lives. Before they go, Alexia tells Chiron to return to his people as he had done enough and they need to protect his knowledge. Going into the mist, they start to see things and one of the men turns around, but turns to stone. Alexia sees her parents, but knowing its not real, she manages to not turn. Going through the mist, they face a satyr, but Heron arrives and kills it with an arrow.

Alexia and the rest reach the labyrinth and navigate it. They reach the location with the giant remains, but the remains are gone. Seraphim shows up with demons, and Heron realizes they moved the remains. Seraphim asks Heron to join him and get their vengeance on the gods as they are the reason for all of this and that their mother is dead. Heron tells him that Zeus can turn him into a human again, but Seraphim tells him to choose if he is with him or against him. Heron chooses not to join him, and they start a fight with the demons. Most perish in the fight, with only Heron, Alexia, Kofi, and Evios managing to escape and run away with the griffon.

In "War for Olympus," while the gods and giants fight, Heron, Alexia, Kofi and Evios search for the Cauldron, but can't find it. They see the arrow he shot in the air hand landed with two dead crows on it.

Heron manages to get the Cauldron, but Seraphim catches up to him and kills the griffon. The giant is about to step on Hera, and Zeus sacrifices himself to stop him. Seraphim then cuts Hera's arm with Hermes bracer but escapes before Seraphim kills her. As Seraphim obtains both the Cauldron and the bracer, the giants turn against all gods. Using a pegasus and another smaller griffon, Kofi makes Seraphim drop the Cauldron, and Alexia kills Seraphim's manticore. Heron later wakes up bandaged in bed. Hermes tells him that Zeus was proud of him, just like they are now. He sees the gods fixing all the damage to Olympus from the battle and reunites with Alexia, Kofi, and Evios.

## Trivia

* Although not confirmed, according to Greek myth, the Amazons were a tribe of female warriors who lived in Central Asia or North Africa. Legends said that they mated with other tribes to preserve their race but kept only female infants. They were said to amputate their right breasts so that they could shoot better with bows and arrows. Later historians claimed that the Amazons were a tribe of men and women in which both sexes fought in battles.
