I'm Thomas, your host, and it's a pleasure to have your company. In this episode, we're continuing our series about the Olympian gods and goddesses of Greek mythology, a series I have the pleasure of reading for you. Each story was written by the very talented Frankie Regalia, who we're very grateful to for her creative and wonderful tales.
Tonight we will be introduced to the embodiment of beauty and love herself, the goddess Aphrodite. Being a primordial being, this goddess is all forms of love and beauty at once. She is one of the most powerful gods on Olympus, because her influence in the realms of love can even affect her godly peers.
There is not a human in the history of the world who has not in some way either sent her praise or cursed her for her work. She can be as spiteful and jealous as any love, and yet she can also contain unending gentleness, compassion, and affection. Not only will we witness the full strength of her power, but we'll also follow her descendants through the years.
