Stars of Freedom

Chapter 15: The Truth

The group finally found a place to settle down, it was a lone house in the middle of nowhere.

Lykos: Wait...I still can't get this through my head...Okami and Volk are my brothers?

Fidi: Yes Ly.

Lykos: But how? The only thing in common we have is our hair color, and that doesn't even prove anything cause Ale also has brown hair.

Fidi: You all have different mothers, hence your different colored eyes.

Volk: Does that mean you know them?

Fidi looked nervous for a second but nobody noticed.

Fidi: Well...In Okami's case, I never met your mom in person, but Accalia did talk about her a lot. In Volk's case...I saw her once and let me tell you she was in a high place.

Volk: So, she was rich?

Fidi: ...I guess you could say that...

Volk: So then...who was she, and why did both Accalia and her leave me with other people?

Fidi: Ahaha, I didn't get to know her as well. I'm guessing it was for your own good that they sent you to the Zvezda household.

Volk: Hmm...I'm not complaining about the Zvezda household...Caia and her parents were really nice people, but I could at least have an explanation as to why they ditched me there.

Fidi: Accalia didn't really talk about why. I'm guessing he couldn't take care of having to protect Greece from monstra attacks.

Sobaka: Why the hell would you have a kid if you can't dedicate the time to him?

Fidi: Beats me, whenever I wasn't with the group, I always came back home to be with Sky.

Alepou: And so did dad.

Fidi: Yeah, Liontari always went to check up on Ale and Alo. From what I take it, he also left Ly alone.

Alepou: Yeah, that's why we had to start taking care of him.

Lykos: Haha, you're not wrong.

Alepou: Wait, what about Ly's mom?

Fidi: I don't think you'll believe me if I told you.

Sobaka: We've seen a lot of things people wouldn't believe, what makes this one different?

Fidi: Oh trust me, this one is different.

Sobaka: It's not like the kid's a god....right?

Fidi: Close, a demigod, actually.

Sobaka: Excuse me?

The group looked at Lykos surprised.

Lykos: Eh? Me?!

Alepou: Wait, wait, wait....who's his mother?

Fidi: Goddess of the Hunt, Artemis.

Okami: You're telling me Accalia had a child...with a Goddess?!

Fidi: Accalia was...built different.

Volk: Apparently he was...

Lykos: Huh...is that why I like nature.

Fidi: You're probably one hell of a powerhouse. 

Lykos: ...yes...

Fidi: You don't know how to use your powers...do you?
