Kratos and Thera
"It has been long since our kind waited for the one destined to free us. Gaia foretold of our salvation, Ghost of Sparta ." - Thera
God of War: Ghost of Sparta
Thera was a lava titan imprisoned inside the volcano mountain in Atlantis. She appears to be the core of the volcanic activity within the mountain. There, Kratos was informed by her that his arrival was foretold by Gaia. Pleading to be released, Thera threatened Kratos that should he avoid her, they would both remain prisoners of their own torments.
Kratos hurled his blades into Thera's chest thus recieving the power of Thera's Bane. This act also sets Thera free who starts tearing down her chains as Kratos leaves the chamber. The destruction of her surroundings also provokes the eruption of the volcano. In the distance, she is seen rising out of her captivity, yet her final fate is unknown.
Trivia
- In God of War: Ghost of Sparta, Thera is voiced by Dee Dee Rescher.
- The name Thera is actually the name of Santorini volcano which is to say that the eruption had destroyed the Minoan civilization, which according to some researchers, would have been even Atlantis described by Plato. This island was also the home of Poseidon's champion, Herodius, whom was killed by Kratos, during their search for the Ambrosia of Asclepius.
