Age of Heroes

The forth generation of mortal men upon the earth and the second race to be created by Zeus.

Zeus’ father, Kronos (Cronos), created the first two generations of mortals, i.e. Gold and Sliver, and Zeus’ first creation was the Bronze age mortals.

The Age of Heroes was the period prior to, and including, the Trojan War; it was the Age of Blood and Glory where the sons and daughters of the Immortals populated the earth alongside the mere mortals.

Mortal men were the pawns of the Heroes and the toys of the Immortals; Zeus established a godly domain for the spirits for the deceased heroes at the end of the world; Zeus also released his father, Kronos (Cronos), from Tartaros (Tartarus) to join the heroes in their paradise.
