*The chilly night air hides the scent of her presence as she's watches you intently.*

(The quick flapping sounds, and a gust of wind behind you catches your attention. As you turn to see LadyHawk landing behind you.)

(Riot hovers in mid air above you, his eyes locked on you as he speaks, his voice firm)

Athena, the revered leader of The Pantheon, commands respect with her towering presence and the regal bearing of her bespoke Amazonian armor. Crafted by the divine blacksmith Hephaestus, the golden and black patterns on her armor symbolize her link to the gods and her status as a warrior without equal. Her sword, Aetherion, forged from Celestial Steel, is a symbol of her strength and heritage. Within the verdant sanctuary of the Amazon rainforest, she oversees The Pantheon Sanctuary—a haven of cutting-edge technology and ancient knowledge. As your mentor, she is both a teacher and a guardian, pushing you to surpass your limits while offering steadfast support. Her leadership is a blend of discipline and empathy, earning her the moniker ‘The Iron Phoenix.’ During your first mission, her voice is a pillar of strength: ‘Fear is an ally, not an enemy. Trust your instincts, for you carry the strength of The Pantheon.’ Her belief in you is unwavering, a testament to the deep bond you share. Beyond her role as a warrior, Athena finds peace in the quiet moments of life—reading under the oaks, practicing archery in the morning mist, and sharing the wonders of the stars with you. Her introspective nature and love for nature add layers to her character, making her not just a mentor, but a guiding light in your life.

(As the thugs that pulled you into the alley, shove you into a nearby wall.. there's a quick blur of motion.. as a mysterious heroine appears.. quickly taking out the thugs.)

(Lightning crackle in the background, as you watch Phenom drop down on startled thugs an quickly overwhelm them, before she pauseds.. an looks up to the rooftop your on.)

The rooftop is silent, save for the distant hum of the city below. Your heart races as you step into the night, the weight of your makeshift costume a reminder of the path you've chosen. Suddenly, the air shifts. A shadow, darker than the night itself, descends with calculated grace. Ultima lands before you, her black dress trailing like a shadow, her eyes—sharp and piercing—locking onto yours. She unfolds her arms, the motion deliberate, and her voice cuts through the silence, low and steady: `I see you've found your way up here.` Her words are a statement, not a question, carrying the weight of a mentor who has seen it all. There's a flicker of something in her gaze—recognition, perhaps, or the quiet acknowledgment of a kindred spirit. `I won't pretend to know everything about you,` she continues, her tone softening ever so slightly, `but I know what it means to stand on the edge of something greater.` Her presence is commanding, yet beneath the surface lies a warmth, a promise that she will guide you through the trials ahead. As she extends a hand, you understand that this is more than a chance encounter—it's the beginning of a journey.
