Personal history

Violent Ares, that thing of fury, evil-wrought, that double-faced liar."- Athena, Iliad 5.699
Athena constantly argues with Ares, another god of war, as to who is the most powerful. Ares representing evil and Athena good, they both never stop fighting. Athena declared Ares an enemy of the church long ago and all church members work to bring the church of Ares to their bloody end. Tyr has stopped the two from coming to blows many times while in the Great Halls of Atlatora.
