Promethea is an epic tale that follows the story of Benjamin. Who is of an unknown race and possesses powers never before seen, and what happens as he sets out on a journey to discover his own origins. And the story of a fiery red headed woman by the name of Gabriel who is a very powerful Hydromancer on her quest to bring glory to the name of her goddess. Along the way they will eventually meet under the less than ideal circumstances of a civil war plaguing the kingdom of Vala, into which Benjamin is dragged, and Gabriel is joining for the glory of her priesthood.
