HERA [OM serie] (September 5th)
When I asked around who might be the next girl on the OM serie,
a lot of girlz said HERA...
When ya know who HERA was on the Greek Mythos, ya may imagine how a flirt like me might feel !!!
Who is HERA ?
In the Olympian pantheon of classical Greek Mythology, Hera was the wife and older sister of Zeus (ok... they gat a strange sense of familly !). Her chief function was as goddess of women and marriage.
The cow, and later, the peacock were sacred to her (two animals not available on Sage fer now).

Hera was born of Cronus and Rhea but was swallowed by her father (a gourmet I guess) after birth due to a prophecy that one of his children would take over the throne.
Zeus was not swallowed because of a plan hatched by Rhea and Gaia.
Rhea wrapped a stone in baby clothes and gave it to Cronus.
Rhea later gave Cronus a herb which, she said, could make him completely invincible, but it actually made him regurgitate the five other Olympians: Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades, and Poseidon, as well as the previously ingested stone.
Portrayed as majestic and solemn, often enthroned, and crowned, Hera may bear a pomegranate in her hand, emblem of fertile blood and death and a substitute for the narcotic capsule of the opium poppy. (Now ya know why pomegranates worth that much on SAGE!!!)
Hera was known for her jealous and vengeful nature, most notably against Zeus's paramours and offspring, but also against mortals who crossed her, such as Pelias.

Paris offended her by choosing Aphrodite as the most beautiful goddess, earning Hera's hatred (And then Trojan's people had to organise a moving!).
But... this not the story of our HERA in Sage !
She certainly had a lot of adventures, but I've been told her dad did not ate her (forunatly)
Please welcome our Ocean Master : HERA
By the way, my wife Jojos did named the Tiger I offered her HERA...
Seems she survey me and plan to make me eaten if I only be treacherous...
Well... If I'm caught !
