Mythology

Suggest change

Prometheus was a Titan that started a quarrel with Zeus over his supposed unfair treatment of humanity. This led to Prometheus stealing the fire from the gods and gifting it to humanity, which resulted in Zeus chaining Prometheus and sending an eagle to prey upon his continually regenerating liver. After some time, Zeus' son Heracles shot the eagle and freed Prometheus, and the Titan subsequently made peace with his savior's father.
