Once there was a man, he thought of himself as nothing, and no one could ever change that, not even the love of his life, Eris. Eris met the man, who's name was Greg by the way and they instantly clicked. Greg however showed no love for her, but she was determined to bare his child so with this she....okay you know where I'm going here she raped him and shit.
Eris was happy when she found out she pregnant as she finally had something to remind her of Greg, but then she remembered something, as soon as the her beloved child was born she would have to give it up. Saddened by this she asked Eileithyia to prolong her pregnancy so that she could keep the baby close to her for a while longer, however, this only worked for a few days before Eris couldn't take pregnancy anymore so she gave birth to Dade. Reluctantly, Eris gave the baby to Hermes to deliver to his father, however, Eris remembered he'd probably not want anything about her near him, so she asked Hermes to deliver him to an orphanage, and say his parents were killed in a car accident.
It was a snowy night when Hermes finally located an orphanage. When he found one he put Dade on the doorstep with a note, rung the doorbell and left. The baby was found by a nun. She scowled and quickly brought the young boy into the orphanage. Her ice blue eyes glanced over the young boy as she placed him into a crib. The young boy woke the next morning by a nun who looked him critically. Most children would start crying from this look, but the only thing that happened with Dade was that his bright green eyes gleamed in the light. As Dade got older he was forced to start going to church and a catholic school. Dade was beaten for being left handed as the nuns said "Left handed people are the devil's minions". Dade soon learned to use his right hand, but when possible he would use his left hand.
As he grew older the nuns started to see that he wasn't as normal as he should be. They said that he started having delusions after he said he kept on seeing "monsters" out the window. It wasn't until one Sunday in church a two harpies flew in and started attacking him. The nuns eyed him critically as they thought he was ducking and screaming about nothing, however, there was a satyr in the church as well, the priest to be exact. He quickly saw the harpies and tried to hurry up his sermon to try and help Dade, who he was supposed to protect. The satyr, who's name was Frances, only took up the job to protect the young boy. Dade managed to escape to the bathrooms. Frances managed to get to him before the harpies found him and dragged him out of the church and pushed him into his peace of crap car. Dade was confused but he was slightly happy to get rid of them god damn nuns, even if it meant going on a roadtrip with a priest.
Frances told Dade that he was a demigod during the drive and told him that he was taking him to a camp. They managed to get to camp safely, well if you exclude one hellhound they easily managed to get away from. Dade, though, tries to avoid Frances at camp though somewhat fails.
