Once upon a time, there was a titan named Prometheus. 

Prometheus was very gentle and did not like to fight. 

Prometheus had the gift of forethought and could predict the 

future.

His father, Iapetus, started a war with the Greek gods. 

Two of Prometheus's brothers went with their father, 

however Prometheus and his brother Epimetheus sided with 

the gods.

Prometheus and his brother went on a journey from

 Mt. Olympus to Earth to visit the Greek province of Boitia. 

They molded figures out of clay and the Greek goddess, 

Athena, breathed life into them.

Prometheus was in charge of molding man, and his brother 

molded animals.

Zeus, the god of gods, was angered that the brothers for 

creating humans and animals and forbade them to teach 

mankind the ways of civilization.

Athena, Zeus's daughter, didn't listen to Zeus and taught 

Prometheus how to teach mankind.

Zeus was mad at Prometheus and mankind for what they did. 

He forbade Prometheus to give mankind the gift of fire as an 

act of anger.

Prometheus being the gentle man he is wanted to give 

mankind as much as he could and tried his hardest to give 

them the gift of fire. Zeus knew Prometheus would try to steal 

the fire, so he had Mt. Olympus guarded so Prometheus 

couldn't get in.

One night, Prometheus went through a back door Athena told 

him about and stole the fire.

"I can't believe you would do this to me! The fire was all mine 

and you took it to give to mankind!" said Zeus when he 

confronted Prometheus.

Prometheus felt guilty for what he did, but he knew what he 

had to do.

Zeus was not merciful and was planning to punish 

Prometheus.

Zeus went to every Greek god and got a gift from each. From 

this collection of gifts, he created the very first woman, 

Pandora.

Zeus placed all the horrors in the world in the box and was 

planning to give it to Prometheus as revenge for what he did.

Once Zeus finished collecting all the horror and evil he was 

placing in the box, he gave the box to Pandora to give to 

Prometheus.
