Palutena (Deity)

## Palutena

Goddess of Light, Protection, Justice, Love, Family, Friends

**Palutena**, also known as the "**Protector**", is both a fictional character and tritagonist of the *Historic Tales* series created by David Jaffe and Scott Phillips. She is a God who was revered in the Earth's Greco-Roman mythology.

She is the daughter of the Titan King, Cronus, but was consumed out of her father's fear of a prophecy that a god would rise and overthrow him one day (whether by one of his children or a god born from a far from Mt. Olympus).

"*And as the goddess of light, it's my duty to protect humanity from her.*"

—Palutena.
