Leto (Latona)
Keira Combs “Zeus you can not leave me! What am I to do with our child! He will be born soon, no country is going to let me live there with the fear of the gods!” Leto yelled at Zeus “I do not care what you do with this child, he is not mine anymore! I have a wife, that if she knew about you and this child you would be dead! I’m doing you a favor, now be gone!” Zeus yelled back at Leto sending her away Leto wondered all the countries and Islands, everyone said no to her. They would not have a her child to be born on their land for fear that Hera would do something if she found out about the child. Leto wondered for weeks, every country was the same until she came across an Island. The island of Delos, it had no roots holding it down, it moved with the waves . Once Leto set foot on the Island, she asked for refuge. The Island then and there grew roots making the Island stable for Leto. Leto lived on this Island till her death, she had her two sons Artemis and Phoebus Apollo. The Island grew to be the where Apollo built his temple. This temple was visited by men from far and wide. The Island of Delos became one of the most renowned of Islands.
