Who really controls the sun? 🌞 Was it always Apollo, the famous god of music and light? Or was there someone before him, someone older… and maybe even more powerful?

In this exciting episode of Tales of Olympus, join me, Ariel — I’m 10 years old! — your favorite Greek mythology storyteller, as I uncover the truth about Helios, the original sun god, and how Apollo slowly took over his place in the sky.

You’ll hear about:

• 🌅 How Helios drove the fiery sun chariot across the sky
• ⚡ The tragic tale of Phaethon, Helios’ son, and how he almost destroyed the Earth
• ☀️ Why Apollo became the new sun god in Greek mythology
• 📚 What the Percy Jackson books say about Apollo and Helios

This episode is packed with real myths, dramatic moments, and fun facts that will help you understand Greek mythology even better than before!
