Love at First Sight
After giving up her throne on Mount Olympus for Dionysus, Hestia found herself in a quite complicated life situation and she was in a constant search for the long-term solution ever since. As it often happens in life, the solution appeared accidentally.
It happened one afternoon in a quiet little village when Hestia was wandering around like many times before. She found a place that seemed so peculiar; so close to the outside world yet so isolated from it by it’s charming stonewall.
Among aromatic, kaleidoscopic plants and herbs there they were; two beautiful and alluring stone houses. Some inner voice was telling her she was on the right path and she felt the possibility that this could finally be it.
The whole family was excited about her discovery and it didn’t take long before they were swimming in a crystal clear pool under the sky so bright. Some fish to ease the hunger, some wine to prolong the moment and afternoon siesta that followed - it was enough - Hestia knew she made the right decision coming there.
Even these days when she rests on a lounger by the pool reading a book, breathing crisp air filled with scents of citrus, rosemary and lavender she thinks to herself how everything truly does happen for a reason.
She smiles then and greets the sun that keeps shining over her dearest, beloved Hvar home.
