Hello everyone, welcome back to Greek Mythology Gods. In this magnificent and mysterious story, we continue to follow the footsteps of the gods, exploring the intertwined wisdom and power, and uncovering the deep secrets behind fate.

Last season, we witnessed the world's evolution from chaos to order: Gaia gave birth to the heavens and the earth, Uranus emerged, but was overthrown by Kronos due to his brutality. Kronos, fearing a prophecy, devoured his own children, but was ultimately defeated by Zeus. After ten years of war between the Titans, thunderbolts shattered the shackles of the old gods. Zeus defeated Typhon, consolidating his power, and the earth returned to peace. Today, we begin a new chapter: how Prometheus shaped the first humans from clay and fire.

In the myths of the Olympian gods,Prometheus was the bravest of the giants. He said that the earth, while beautiful, lacked intelligent life. So, he molded the image of humans from river mud. But these clay figures were soulless, without thoughts. Prometheus endowed them with animal traits: the bravery of a lion, the sharp eyes of an eagle, the strength of a bear. It wasn't until Athena's blessing arrived that humanity truly gained a soul and reason.

But the newly born humans were like children, seeing everything but not knowing how to use it. So, Prometheus taught them language, writing, building, and farming. However, they still lacked the most important thing: fire.

Zeus refused to give humanity fire. So, Prometheus risked his life to steal the celestial fire, lighting the first lamp of human civilization. From then on, humanity had light and warmth,skills, and hope.

Furious, Zeus imprisoned Prometheus on the cliffs of the Caucasus Mountains. Every day, a giant eagle pecked at his liver, which then grew back at night. Endless suffering, dayafter day.

But Prometheus refused to give in. He declared, "For humanity, this is all worth it!"

He gave humanity not only fire, but also courage, wisdom, and an eternal spiritual flame. This is the myth of Prometheus. A story of sacrifice, freedom, and the origins of humancivilization.

In the next episode, we'll continue exploring the legend of Pandora's Box. Zeus gifted this beautiful girl with a hidden plot to punish humanity. Pandora's insatiable curiosity led herto open the forbidden box, and plague, war, greed, and disaster instantly swept the world, leaving only hope as the only solace. This story, full of seduction and tragedy, reveals the eternal struggle between human destiny and desire.
