Sin's Past, written down, so that people can see it.
Thesinwithin is an assumed name, the real name was lost long ago, when a war waged between two nations. The two nations fought bitterly for many an aeon, neither able to understand why they were fighting the other, until, rising from the sea foam, a prophet was born.
This prophet told of a time of peace, and to the war-weary nations, it was a sure sign that things were finally looking up for them. But, as with any Oracle's words, there is a price. The price was a sacrifice to the god of war and victory.
Nike, as many people know, is the Greek Goddess of Victory, Athena's almost constant companion. When she learned of the sacrifice, which is to burtal to discribe within these pages, she ran to Athena for aid.
Pallas Athene, the goddess of wisdom, consoled the grieving Nike, and promised to find a way for the sacrifice to be spared. No one, to this day, knows why Athena interviened when the bucher's knife fell towards the bound girl on the alter, but she did, wisking the young girl away from her former family and life, to become the child of Nike and Athena, the only one either of them is known to raise.
The child was called Ademe, but never was trully known as that. Many of the gods around and on Mt. Olympus hated the idea of a mortal living amongst them that Hera requested that they leave at least until the child was grown.
Athena was not accustomed to older, spiteful women telling her what to do, but she and Nike agreed that they would just have to leave until their surgate daughter was ready to live on her own. So they left, taking nothing with them, to live as mortals.
Now, living as mortals was not as easy as Nike had made it sound to Athena when they first began their journey. They began by moving into a small abandoned cottage far north of anyting and everything greek to them, this was a measure to prevent the two nations from ever discovering them. Athena objected their living in hiding, but Nike explained that even as Gods they couldn't hide from prying eyes.
