Athena: Zeus will not fall as easily as Ares. Athena: As we speak, the war for Olympus rages on and mankind suffers. But remember: my death came by your blade. Athena: Appearances can be deceiving, Kratos.

Kratos: You still appear to be an Olympian. Athena: My sacrifice to save Zeus has brought me to a higher existence. Kratos: Athena?! Athena: I have missed you, Spartan. The gates of Hades have never held me! Athena: Death cannot hold those with purpose, Kratos. Having suffered the ultimate sacrifice, I have been denied release. Kratos: GAIA!!!! I have lived as a warrior. Kratos: The destruction of Zeus is why you saved me from death! Gaia: I saved you to serve the Titans! Kratos: Do not deny me my revenge!! Gaia: Listen carefully, Kratos. I will have my revenge! Zeus: Petulant child! I will tolerate your insolence no more!! Kratos: Gaia! I can hold on no longer! Gaia: If I help you, we will both fall. What more will you destroy? Kratos: The Hands of Death could not defeat me, the Sisters of Fate could not hold me, and you will not see the end of this day. Zeus: Athena is dead because of the rage that consumes you Kratos. Kratos: What will you do, Father?! You can no longer hide behind the skirts of Athena. Kratos: Then prepare for your death, Poseidon. Poseidon: The death of Olympus means the death of us all. No matter how many gods fall, there will always be another to stand against you. Leave the sea, and face me! Poseidon: You have disrespected the gods for the last time, Kratos! Poseidon: Zeus should have kept you where you belonged. Dialogue Poseidon: You challenge me, mortal?! A god of Olympus?! Kratos: A true warrior does not hide, Poseidon. The realm of the afterlife is not yet ready for you. It falls to me, King Minos, to make the final decision. Minos: By the gods of Olympus and order of Zeus, we are the Three Judges. But you have your own sense of honor, right, Kratos?! And what has that 'honor' brought you? Nothing but nightmares of your failure! Today you may defeat me, but in the end, Kratos. Hermes: I thought Spartans fought with honor! And yet you seek to kill me when I have no way to defend myself? Not fair!. And on this day, the man, the legend, Kratos, will have his revenge. The Sisters of Fate could not control him. But the Hands of Death could not defeat him. And even though Kratos sat on the throne as the new God of War, he was haunted by visions of his family - a family he himself murdered. Others Narrator: Before the age of the twilight set upon the gods, a legend rose to claim his place among them.

Hope is what makes us strong! It is why we are here! It is what we fight with when all else is lost!.

I should have expected this from a coward such as yourself! A coward who kills his own kin!.

Eating you will be more unpleasant for me!

By hiding you show your true nature coward!.

There you are, Kratos! Your fate is now in my hands!.

You are clearly a skilled warrior, Kratos!.

You are a pest and deserve to be crushed like one!.

AAAUGH!! DAMN MORTAL! You will suffer when my sight returns!.

Kratos, your death will not be a gentle one.

And I have not forgotten that it was you who butchered my beautiful queen!! I will see you suffer as I have suffered! Your soul is mine!! And what else? What else?! Ah, and you killed my brother, Poseidon. How many sins have you committed against me? Oh, that's right, you murdered my niece, Athena. I sense some bad blood between us, Kratos. So glad you could carve out some time for us.

Now, it falls to me to collect payment for the pain you have wrought.

Welcome, Spartan, come in! Make yourself at home.

I can understand why Zeus was so taken with you, Kratos.

ENOUGH! Father and son will die together!.

I never sought your death, Spartan, but you left me no choice!

Kratos, the death of Zeus is within our reach! Jump into my hand!.

Something has me! I cannot move, Kratos.

WHY WON'T YOU DIE?! DIE!!! TREMBLE IN FEAR!!!!.

Surrender to me, and Pandora will live.

Perhaps you should have chosen the other one.

Petulant child! I will tolerate your insolence NO MORE!!!.

We will unite, we will stand together, and I will wipe out this plague! Olympus. A world that lives in the shadow and safety of my mountain, a mountain that has come to be the absolute measure of strength and power! Now, on this day, that power is to be tested! The mortal, Kratos, seeks to destroy all that I have wrought! Brothers, put aside the petty grievances that have splintered us for so long. We created a world of peace, a world of prosperity. As it grew, so too did the might of the Olympians. Born from the depths of the Underworld, rooted in the River of Souls, our mountain emerged out of the chaos. A victory that ended the Great War and brought forth the reign of Mount Olympus.

My brothers, we were forged in victory.
