of the Legend
Mythology[]
Hephaestus was the Greek God of forges and fire. He is the son of Zeus and Hera He was the god of technology, blacksmiths, craftsmen, artisans, sculptors, metals, metallurgy, fire and volcanoes.
Like other mythic smiths but unlike most other gods, Hephaestus was lame, which gave him a grotesque appearance in Greek eyes. He served as the blacksmith of the gods, and he was worshiped in the manufacturing and industrial centers of Greece, particularly in Athen.
Zeus hastily married Aphrodite to Hephaestus the god of blacksmiths and metalworking in order to prevent the other gods from fighting over her. Or possibly, Hephaestus gave his mother Hera a golden throne, but when she sat on it, she was trapped and he refused to let her go until she agreed to give him Aphrodite's hand in marriage. Hephaestus was overjoyed to be married to the goddess of beauty and forged her beautiful jewelry. After forced into marrying Hephaestus, Aphrodite was frequently unfaithful to him, with many lovers.
Aphrodite and Ares
Aphrodite and Ares became lovers during The Trojan War. The sun-god Helios saw Aphrodite and Ares having sex in Hephaestus's bed and warned Hephaestus, who fashioned a net of gold. The next time they had sex, the net trapped them both. Hephaestus brought all The Gods to laugh at the captured adulterers, but Apollo, Hermes, and Poseidon had sympathy for Ares, and Poseidon agreed to pay Hephaestus for Ares's release. Humiliated, Aphrodite returned to Cyprus, where she was attended by The Charites.
