3 god's
I might be related to Poseidon because I have always wanted to make an earthquake. Well when I am mad. Speaking of when I am guess who comes to mind yea that's right Ares. I mean the way he just leaves blood on his spear. sure I have play wars but if there ever was blood in my play wars I would never leave blood on my darts. last but not least Anthea.
