It is a rare sight to see Gods produce offspring with the Horses of Graeco. Yet, Anaximander is one of the examples.

His father being the God of War, had abandoned him at birth, but held expectations for him.

It is his mortal mother who instilled a spirit, one of compassion and mercy.

She would tell him tales of his father, Ares. A time before where he may have been compassionate too. Where he did care for the people and didn’t strictly follow the wars of Mortal Land.

He’s humble, having worked as a common working horse in Graeco.

He knew being a Demigod though, that there would be a time where he’s called upon by the Gods to assist them.

———

His first mission by The God of War - his father - was to travel to the City-State. Diogenes. Find the sorceress Kassandra, and execute her. Fulfill his duties as Demigod and kill a powerful pony before it’s too late.

Taken aback, having never killed anyone before, Anaximander pleaded to offer her mercy but was struck by his father. As if he was offended beyond belief.

Calling him a disobedient child who lacks the courage to do what needs to be done.

He chose mercy to Kassandra. A big risk. For he knows nothing of her, if she had done irreparable choices which would condemn her.

But he didn’t care. He cared to give a second chance, to save her from the darkness. A darkness he had internally been dealing with since he was a colt.

His relation to Kassandra on this was personal.

She relented, the words of Anaximander spoke to her. And she seized all her magic on Diogenes. Exiling herself from her home as a punishment.

This choice infuriated Ares.
He was cursed to live the rest of his life with mortality. To die a mortal death by Ares.

Five years living with this curse gave him permanent scars.

When Kassandra redeemed herself to the Gods, they lifted the curse off Anaximander.

They argued that Ares’ rash punishment should have been reserved if she failed to change. Not by offering mercy to her.
