                                      Athena, most definitely Athena!!!

Why NOT Hera--While power may be able to bribe and corrupt the minds of others, I do not feel that way... I never would want all of the responsibility of being placed above too many people, even if they did worship me... And even if I did want it, my absolute power would eventually corrupt me...While I greatly admire Hera, the magnificent Queen of Olympus, the offer of power does not compel me...

Why NOT Aphrodite---while I do have a strong crush on this one guy, I would have to turn this offer down as well... I genuinely admire true love, and consider it the best and strongest of all emotions... BUT, I don't like the notion of making  him fall in love with me... I could be mistaken about him, and if he doesn't love me for who I am, he's certainly NOT the right potential boyfriend... Love works best without magical coercion...While I greatly admire and love Aphrodite, her offer of coerced love does not compel me...

Athena, the logical conclusion--a genius-level intellect is the most infallible of the three, as well as the most useful... After all, you cannot be a good and effective ruler, OR a properly attractive boyfriend/lover without being smart... Intellect is something that I can always apply in nearly every situation in order to succeed, AND people would admire me for who I am....
