Hades 2: Everything We Know About Melinoë So Far

is Supergiant Games' first ever sequel, but that doesn't mean it is going to keep things the same. Zagreus, the lovable and sarcastic protagonist of the first ,has been replaced by his little sister, Melinoë, and the game no longer revolves around escaping Hades over and over again. Instead, it is about breaking into the Underworld, killing the Chronos, Titan of Time, so that Hades can be reclaimed from its usurper, and a recent technical test provided plenty of insight into the new protagonist.
Due to the inconsistencies with the Greek myths, there are a few versions of Melinoë. Sometimes, she's a Goddess, while other times she is a chthonic nymph. Her parentage can rarely be agreed upon too, since sometimes her father is Hades, while other times it is Zeus, just like with the potentially returning Zagreus. Given that the franchise is called the "",Supergiant has made Melinoë a Goddess, and since she is the Princess of the Underworld, she is also the daughter of Hades.
Melinoë is the second child of Hades and Persephone, being born after the events of the first game. Despite being born in the Underworld, she has very little knowledge of it, since Chronos is said to have attacked shortly after the princess was born, at least according to Poseidon. She managed to escape the same fate as her family, who are assumed to have all been captured by the Titan, and has trained with Hecate ever since.
As of the start of the game, Melinoë is in hiding with what is effectively a camp full of Underworld rebels seeking the death of Chronos. She has been training with Hecate since she was a child in service to the goal of ending the Titan of Time, with "" even being somewhat of a salute. With her mentor being a user of witchcraft, she fights very differently to her warrior-like brother, who trained under Achilles, as she utilizes magic never before seen in
In 's technical test, there is a sequence in which a child version of Melinoë talks with Hecate about beginning her training. The camp and tyrannical rule of Chronos is almost as old as she is, and she knows very little about her family first hand.
Much like her brother,Melinoë can call upon the aid of the Olympians, but the set-up is different. Olympus is under siege, and the Gods are at war, which can be seen in their new UI art, as many are brandishing weapons and donning armor. It is agreed that Melinoë is the key to killing Chronos, so the Olympians help with their Boons. Strangely enough, Melinoë doesn't seem fond of these gods, since they are referred to as the family she doesn't like by Dora, a Listless Shade.

Forget what you think you know about John Green and watch Turtles All The Way Down
At the height of John Green’s popularity, most people knew the YA author for a very specific genre: sad teen books, usually about shy-yet-pretentious boys in love with spirited yet emotionally available girls. That was always a derogatory oversimplification of Green’s novels, which often deconstruct common YA tropes more than they give into them. But years of warped online perspectives on Green’s work, heightened by aesthetic Tumblr posts and Pinterest mood boards, meant that when the 2014 movie adaptation of Green’s tragic teen romance The Fault in Our Stars came out, the were calcified, preconceived notions of what a John Green Book™ was. (Never mind thatThe Fault in Our Stars flipped the gender roles, with a reserved girl and a vivacious boy.)

Apple removes these AI image generator apps from App Store- Know about the new rules here

These deepfake apps gained popularity through Instagram ads. While Meta was quick to take down the ads redirecting users to download such apps, Apple took a while to respond. It was only after a report by 404 Media that Apple took steps.
