### Classification

SpartanDemigod

Father to Atreus

## Summary

With his vengeance in Greece complete, Kratos traveled far from his original homeland. Eventually, he made his way to the land of the Norse gods, where he met a woman named Faye. The two fell in love and, soon enough, they had a child - a boy, which Kratos decided to name Atreus, although his mother insisted on a name closer to the Norse world...

Shortly before Faye's death, she gave Kratos a weapon - the Leviathan Axe, which she herself used to protect those who would not protect themselves.

Years pass and Kratos, spending more time training to control his own anger than with his son, witnesses Faye's death. The woman's last request is for the two to scatter her ashes from the tallest peak in the realms. Having started a new life and having the responsibility of a father on his shoulders, Kratos has to not only deal with the ghosts of his past but also learn to be a proper father.
