She guided him throughout the game to Pandora’s Box.Īfter the death of Ares, she revealed that Kratos was forgiven of his sins, but the Gods never agreed to relieve him of his nightmares no Mortal or God could ever forget the terrible things that he had done. For this reason, Athena and the other Gods sought to empower Kratos to save Athens and put an end to Ares’ rampage once and for all. Since Zeus had forbidden the Gods from battling each other directly, Ares thought that nothing could stop him. Out of utter hatred and jealousy towards Athena, Ares summoned monsters from the Underworld and used them to attack the city of Athens.
