In1286, it was recorded that Adam de Burgo (or Bury) 'granted land in Heywood, in the parish of Bury county of Lancaster,' to Peter de Heywood. Heywood Hall, the family seat, was built in the 13th Century and rebuilt in 1611. The Heywood family were Royalists in the Civil War and their fortune much reduced. As a result in 1717 the Hall was sold to John Starkey “ I have taught you many ways to kill a mortal, Kratos. Flesh that burns, bones that break. But to break a man's spirit, is to truly destroy him. ” –Ares Ares was the original Olympian God of War, and the son of Zeus and Hera and the main antagonist of God of War, as well as the perpetrator behind the events of God of War Ascension, meaning he was also responsible for setting the events of the series into motion by tricking Kratos into killing his family and turning him into the Ghost of Sparta, which eventually fulfilling the prophecy of the Marked Warrior who would destroy Olympus and end the reign of the Gods. Ares was the oldest child of Zeus and was commonly referred to as the most hated god on Mount Olympus, even before being killed by Kratos. Greek Mythology Ares was the God of War, son of Zeus and Hera, and one of the most prominent and powerful Gods of Olympus. He was born after the Great War of the Gods and Titans and served his father faithfully for many years. He was also a rival of Athena, his younger sister, because they were both gods, one of War, the other of Wisdom, and wished that the other would stand down. His Roman counterpart was Mars. Mars was held in much higher esteem, second only to Kronos; Ionic form of the Doric áŒ€ÏÎŹ ara, "bane, ruin". In God of War Series Alliance with the Furies Ares came to covet all of Olympus, especially Zeus's throne, so he struck an alliance with the Furies, and persuaded them to take a more ruthless approach. After learning of the prophecy of the Marked Warrior, who is destined to destroy Olympus and kill Zeus, Ares conceived a child with Alecto in the hope that their child would be the marked one so that he could aid him in overthrowing Zeus and claiming his throne. Unfortunately, Orkos, Ares' child, was not up to his standards and was disowned. The Furies, however, saw potential in Orkos and made him their oath-keeper. Encountering Kratos Two Gods of Olympus, Ares, and Athena, raided the city of Sparta in order to capture a child named Deimos, who had been suspected of being the mortal who would destroy Olympus in The Marked Warrior Prophecy. After Ares captured the boy, Deimos' brother, Kratos, charged toward Ares to save his younger brother. Despite his efforts, however, Ares hit Kratos on the face and created a bloody scar on his right eye. Ares was about to kill Kratos, but Athena persuaded Ares to leave him be. Ares then left with Deimos, and Athena quickly apologized to Kratos. Ares then took Deimos to the Domain of Death, where he would be tortured for many years by Thanatos, the God of Death. Little did Ares know that the boy to whom he gave a scar would be the same boy who would Initially serve him and later leave him in adulthood after his family would be slaughtered by his own hands due to his machinations. Wager of the Gods Years later, the Gods created a contest and chose various mortals as their champions for the capture of the Ambrosia. In the wager of the Gods, Ares was seen in the comics choosing Kratos as his champion and was confident that nothing would stop him in his quest for the Ambrosia. After a grueling journey, Kratos captured the Ambrosia and thus made Ares the victor of the wager of the Gods. Kratos' Servitude Ares getting a pledge of servitude from Kratos Kratos and his Spartan army were no match for the merciless barbarians tribes of the east. Being outnumbered and overpowered, Kratos' army was losing the battle. Kratos, about to be killed by Alrik, the Barbarian King, pledged himself to Ares, the God of War, in exchange for victory. After he saw Kratos as the potential warrior that he needed to overthrow Olympus, Ares accepted, violently wiped out the barbarians, and gave Kratos the Blades of Chaos as a sign of his servitude. To ensure that the Spartan became the perfect warrior and was bound to his will, Ares and the Furies devised three blood tests for Kratos. The first had already been completed spilling the blood of enemies. The second, spilling the blood of innocents, was easy to accomplish with Kratos' rising bloodlust as he ended countless lives with his Spartan companions, and conquered most of Greece. The last rite was spilling the blood of loved ones. Ares led Kratos to attack a village built in honor and worship of Athena. The Spartan soldiers ruthlessly killed all who lived in the village and burned their homes to the ground in the process. Upon reaching a strange temple, Kratos was warned by the Village Oracle not to venture within its walls. Ignoring the old woman, Kratos, blinded by bloodthirst, killed all who were within the walls of the temple, including his wife, Lysandra, and his daughter, Calliope. Ares appeared before the bloodstained hands of Kratos and told him that it was necessary to have his family eliminated so that nothing stood in his way. The ashes of Kratos' loved ones were gathered by the Village Oracle who then placed them upon his skin as a permanent reminder of the monster he had become the Ghost of Sparta. Enraged by Ares' deception, Kratos declared vengeance upon the God of War who once saved his life. After Kratos left Ares' service, the God of War's son, Orkos, learned of the injustice that his parents had inflicted on Kratos and turned against his father and his mothers. Orkos sought counsel from the Oracle, Aletheia, who revealed Ares' plot to overthrow Olympus. When Orkos and Aletheia went to warn Zeus, Ares discovered their attempt and sent the Furies after them. Orkos escaped while Aletheia had her eyes torn out and hidden in the ruined Statue of Apollo. The Furies then ruthlessly hunted Kratos to force him to return to Ares' service for their plan to reach its fruition. During Kratos' triumph over the Furies, it was revealed that Ares had wanted Kratos returned to him; the plan was ruined when Kratos killed the Furies and mercifully killed Orkos, who was remade the oath keeper to Kratos, and thereby severed his bond. Kratos managed to escape and served Olympus for 10 years, all while hoping to redeem himself as well as for his sins to be forgiven. Battle with Kratos Jealousy came over Ares for Athena, and, as a result of that jealousy, Ares laid siege to Athens. Since Zeus had forbidden the Gods from waging war with one another, Athena could not step in to protect her city. Instead, Athena enlisted the help of Kratos, who had faithfully served the Gods for 10 years. Kratos was instructed to find Pandora's Box in order to kill Ares. While Ares relentlessly tore Athens apart, he suddenly sensed that Kratos had retrieved the Box. Although he was impressed, Ares picked up a broken pillar and hurled it into the desert, which flew into Pandora's Temple and struck Kratos in the chest, impaling him to a wall and killing him. Ares' Harpies retrieved the Box and brought it to him. However, Kratos escaped the Underworld through the help of the mysterious Grave Digger. Ares challenged Zeus, and threatened to open the Box and use it against Olympus. It seemed all was lost, until Ares looked behind him and saw a returning Kratos standing behind him. He then mocked Zeus by his saying that he sent a broken mortal to defeat the God of War. Kratos, using his power granted by Zeus, took the Box from Ares' hands and opened it. The Gods' power was unleashed, and Kratos felt its magic pour into him, which caused him to grow into a giant though Ares was still noticeably bigger than him. Kratos' strength matched Ares, and the ultimate battle for power began. Ares claimed that Kratos was still just a mortal, and was every bit as weak as the day that he begged him to save his life. Kratos recalled that he was not the same man that Ares had found that day – the monster Ares created had returned to kill him. Ares boasted that Kratos had no idea of what a true monster really was. Ares then unleashed large spider-like spikes from his back and was ready to finally kill Kratos for good. Kratos gained the upper hand during the fight, but Ares trapped him in an illusion where his family was attacked by an army of clones of himself representing his mistake of killing his wife and child, and stated that there were more effective ways of killing someone than just physical harm. Though Kratos had managed to kill all of the clones, Ares mocked him, ripped the Blades of Chaos from his arms, and killed the image of his family with them. The two of them returned to the real world, where Kratos was emotionally beaten, and Ares boasted that Kratos should have been stronger and prepared to kill him with His Sword. Death of Ares Ares getting stabbed through his chest with the Blade of Gods by Kratos Kratos, however, spotted the Blade of the Gods which had sent by Athena, dodged Ares' attack, took up the sword, and defeated him in battle with it. Ares pleaded for his life while reminding Kratos of the day that he had saved his life, and how he had only tried to make him a great warrior. Kratos ironically recanted that Ares had "succeeded" in doing that before he impaled him through the chest, and killed him. The God of War fell into the Aegean Sea, and was no more, dead at the hands of the mortal that he controlled many years ago. Before his last breath, Ares released a loud death cry, which caused blood to burst from his chest, and a powerful explosion was released. However, Kratos, having killed Ares, the one who made him kill his family, asked Athena to remove the nightmares of his past. Athena replied that even though he had been forgiven of his sins, the Gods nor any mortal could ever remove his memories of killing his family. Kratos realized that his nightmarish visions of his past sins would never leave him and thus tried to kill himself over Suicide Bluffs. Athena saved Kratos and said that the Gods could not allow him, who had done such good deeds for them, to die by his own hand. Athena then said that Ares's tactics and methods were brutal and while the Olympians mourned for their brother, Ares's path of destruction had to be stopped. However, with Ares's death, there was an empty place on Olympus for a new God of War Kratos. Kratos then ascended to Olympus and was given the crown, throne, and title as the new God of War, which meant that the peace of Ares' death was broken and whenever there were wars, for good or evil, they would be sought by and given permission to by Kratos, the new; all-powerful; and immortal God of War. After Kratos' success in defeating and killing Ares and becoming the new God of War, the Spartan citizens disowned Ares and hailed Kratos willingly save for a few staunch supporters of Ares, and even removed all effigies of Ares and replaced them with those of Kratos. However, a few faithful Disciples of Ares attempted to revive their fallen God of War with the power of the Ambrosia a power that could resurrect even a God, but Kratos had destroyed Gyges, the island in which the Ambrosia rested on, in order to prevent the followers of Ares' plans from coming to fruition. After Ares' Death After Kratos was betrayed by Zeus and stripped of his Godly powers, Kratos was rescued by Gaia, the Titaness of Earth, who told him that the Sisters of Fate had the power to help him go back in time, avert his betrayal and face Zeus. On the Island of Creation, Kratos came upon a room known as the Garden of the Gods, in which there was a Statue of Ares where he was referred to as "The Fallen God of War". Kratos, after he faced many challenges to get to the Sisters, finally arrived at the Temple of the Fates where he met one of the sisters, Lahkesis. She told Kratos that no one could change their destiny and then began to fight him. As Kratos hurt Lahkesis gravely, she summoned her sister, Atropos, from within herself. Atropos quickly grabbed Kratos, took him inside the mirrors, and brought him back to the day where he faced and killed Ares. She threw Kratos on the Blade of the Gods that he used to kill Ares and become the new and great God of War. Then she tried to change his past by destroying the blade. With the blade gone, Ares would be victorious. In order to maintain his existence, Kratos protected the blade while he battled Atropos, eventually defeated her, secured his past, and trapped her inside the mirror. The Second Titanomachy Ares' Tomb While he faced the Hippocampi on Gaia's hand, Kratos followed a path that leads to a chamber, the Tomb of Ares, which contained Ares' massive corpse that was concealed in ice. Kratos fought the first Centaur of the game there. Despite being dead, Ares played a small role in the third game, as he was mentioned by Athena, Hephaestus, Hera, Cronos, Zeus, and Kratos, and was also shown in flashback scenes. There was also a large fresco of Ares in the upper part of the Chamber of the Flame, which showed him wielding his trademark sword. That fresco was located right next to a fresco of his mother, Hera. Ares' voice was heard when Kratos ended up in his psyche. With the death of Zeus and the near destruction of the world, Ares' plan for Kratos to take down the Olympian Gods and Mount Olympus came to full fruition, though not as he hoped. Multiplayer “ Once your soul is in my grasp, warrior, I will grant you the strength to crush your enemies. ” Ares was one of the mentors of God of War Ascension's Multiplayer and the only mentor who was not a son of Cronos. His statue was the first one in the Rotunda of Olympus. Overview "With the powers of the god of war, a warrior of Ares is what some might call a "glass cannon" the best physical damage dealers from the game, but also the least resistant to damage. This makes Ares the opposite of Poseidon in Multiplayer. His warriors also have a natural bond with fire and heat, which makes them even more fierce by allowing them to keep burning and harming enemies even after an attack." A Warrior of Ares could annihilate his enemies in a matter of seconds but must watch out for incoming attacks. The God of War's servants could survive in hoards of enemies by themselves, which made that the best class for Trial of the Gods. Warrior Dominant physical powers. Fire Magic Damage over time and disable enemy defenses. Ares Items Enhanced melee combat. Ares Weapons Grant damage bonuses and burn enemies over time in certain special attacks. Ares Armors Focus on enhancing physical powers. Ares Symbols Spear, helmet, dog, vulture, and flaming torch. Appearance Ares appears as a giant warrior god. He wears a brown sleeveless tunic, shoulder pieces with cerberus faces built into them, and has bracers and boots with chains on them. His boots go up to his knees. He has long hair and a beard, which seem to be made of fire. He can grow bladed spider legs from his back. Personality Being the god of war, violence and bloodshed, Ares is cruel, sadistic, and violent, as seen by his caring only about spreading chaos and conflict across the world. According to Zeus, Ares only feels joy when destroying cities and nations. Ares is also extremely greedy and power hungry, as exemplified by his desire to destroy his father, so he can replace him as the new king of gods and the ruler of Olympus. However, all his attempts to overthrow Zeus failed. He was even arrogant to the point of openly calling out Zeus and challenging his rule. Ares also considered love for one's family a weakness, which is evident by how he tricked Kratos into murdering his family, as he believed they hindered his servant from becoming a great warrior. He would later learn the hard way that he should have been careful with his expectations for Kratos, who slaughtered Ares in turn once he became aware of his machinations. This shows that Ares never cared much for his own kin, as he plotted to kill his father Zeus and disowned his son Orkos after he could not meet Ares' expectations. His relationship with his mother Hera and brother Hephaestus was unknown as he was not shown despising them. Ares envies his sister Athena, as she was favored by Zeus and was always trying to prove himself as superior to her in every way, such as creating the perfect warrior for example. Eventually, his hatred and jealousy for his sister makes him attempt to destroy the sacred city Athens; however he was stopped and killed by Kratos, with the support of Athena herself. Powers and Abilities As the original God of War, Ares possessed a formidable arsenal of superhuman and magical abilities - all in correlation with combat and warfare, as these were his spheres of influence. As an Olympian prince and firstborn son of Zeus, his powers were considerably stronger than lesser gods. Befitting his name, Ares was a mighty fighter and one of the most powerful Olympian Gods, possibly equal to or even exceeding his uncles in power who were second only to Zeus himself. Ares was powerful enough that he easily eclipsed Persephone and all of the Furies in might, as evidenced by Kratos being able to defeat them with powerful but relatively simple magic artifacts and weaponry, whereas Kratos needed Pandora's Box, a much stronger power in comparison, in order to at least face the God of War on equal footing. Dimensiokinesis Ares was able to create pocket universes that he could control completely. Ares demonstrated that during his battle with Kratos, where he trapped him in his own mind, where he was forced to protect his family, for Ares to kill after all, and almost broke his spirit. However, the pocket universe seemed to be made in Kratos' head instead of an actual physical dimension as when he returned to his giant body, he was kneeling as Ares appeared behind him and was ready to strike him down. Enhanced Senses Ares was able to sense how Kratos retrieved Pandora's Box while being dozens of miles away from the Desert of Lost Souls. Immortality As a god, Ares was innately immortal; neither aging beyond his prime nor succumbing to mortal frailty such as disease or impotence of any sort. He could not be slain by earthly weapons; only divine forces and weapons such as the power of Hope, Blade of the Gods or other immortals such as Titans could slay him. Superhuman Strength As a God of War and Zeus' firstborn son Ares has immense godly strength able to crush buildings effortlessly, make the ground shake by stomping and fight with Kratos after he was strengthened by Pandora box on equal terms. Superhuman Durability Ares posses incredibly durability as a God of War. During his battle with Kratos, he withstands an immense amount of punishment from him including being impaled his own back protrusions which only infuriated him more. Ares also shows to be very resistant even against divine weapons like Blade of the Gods although he was ultimately killed with said weapon. Power Bestowal Ares was able to grant the chosen warrior with a large variety of abilities and weapons, a power common among the Gods. It was he who gave Kratos his original blades, the Blades of Chaos. He also granted the Redeemed Warrior, if he chose to follow him, the highest amount of attack power as well as the ability to empower their weapons with fire to burn enemies. Pyrokinesis Ares possessed the ability to manipulate fire, in every way possible. Ares was able to infuse it in his weapons, throw fireballs from his hands, and ignited people at will. Ares often used that ability to kill those who opposed him. Ares also used it in an aesthetic way, as his hair and facial hair were made of fire. Astral Projection Ares was able to project an image of himself out of the fire to communicate to Kratos after the Spartan killed his family. Shapeshifting As an Olympian, Ares was able to alter his appearance at will. He did that however to a small extent as the change of his hair was altered between God of War Ascension and God of War. Size Alteration Ares was able to alter his size, and often increased it to titanic proportions, as he did during the Battle of Athens. Transformation Ares was able to sprout large, spider-like protrusions from his back that could be used in combat to hit and impale his enemies. Based on the fact that his statue in God of War Ascension bore those "claws", it is implied that this was a trademark feature of the War God. Telepathy Ares was able to talk to people through their minds, without physically getting involved with his target. He can even do this after creating his pocket dimension as he used it to mentally taunt Kratos. Telekinesis Ares was able to move objects and people with his mind and did that on a massive scale. Ares used the ability to rip the Blades of Chaos from Kratos' arms, and, during the Battle with the Barbarians, lifted people in the air and broke them in half. Teleportation Throughout his battle with Kratos, Ares was able to teleport all around the area very quickly. Geokinesis Ares would occasionally summon enormous volcanic rock structures to try to harm Kratos. War Embodiment As the original God of War, Ares was the embodiment of War itself and was able to draw power from it. In combination with his other abilities, Ares was able to lay waste to huge armies with little to no effort. When he died, Ares' body exploded like a nuclear bomb. Weapon Creation During his final fight with Kratos, Ares has shown the ability to materialize various weapons such as a gigantic war hammer, an axe, and a sword, all of which were enveloped in flames. Underworld Control Ares seems to have limited power over the forces of the Underworld. He crafted the Blades of Chaos from the deepest layers of Hades. Furthermore, the vast majority of Ares' army was made of undead monstrocities, hinting that he has limited necromancy. Monster Conrol Ares could control over a vast legion of monsters which served as the backbone of his army. In conjunction with his undead troopers, he was able to command Harpies, Minotaurs, Gorgons, and Cyclops. Master Combatant As an Original God of War, Ares was the most imposing and skilled warrior of Olympus, surpassed possibly only by his father and uncles. He has mastered all weapons used in the war including sword, axe, war hammer and his back spider-like blades which coupled with his godly powers and physical prowess makes him even more formidable. Even after Kratos gains power from Pandora Box, Ares proved himself to be an extremely hard adversary, fighting with the Ghost of Sparta on equal terms most of their battle and at one point nearly killed him despite ultimately lost to him. Enhanced Marksmanship As a god of war, he possessed a greater level of marksmanship as he was able to perfectly hurl a large pillar from Athens to the far off Pandora's Temple in the Desert of Lost Souls to fatally impale Kratos. Gameplay Ares is the final boss of God of War and is easily one of the most difficult bosses in the entire series. Being faced in a series of three consecutive battles with no respite between them, Ares has by far the longest boss sequence of the whole franchise. Battle 1 Ares has very large HP so this fight can take a while. He also employs a wide arsenal of different and punishing attacks, the vast majority of which can be blocked, although he attacks fast and can be hard to predict. Ares will spend most of the beginning of the fight between axe swings, hammer pounds, spider claw stabs and tackles. Out of all of these the hammer pound is the most troublesome as it uses a ground shockwave that cannot be blocked and must be evaded or jumped, beware that it comes with a hammer swing afterwards. The axe swings and tackles are combo attacks, if the player get shit by a tackle it will be followed by a claw stab and a punch sending them backwards. As Ares loses HP he begins incorporating new attacks. He utilizes a new hammer attack in which he charges at Kratos frontally before using the back of the Hammer which lets out a vicious wave of flames from the hammer's "mouth". He can also now use his spider claws more aggressively, extending them at Kratos in a multi-hit attack that can be used twice one series per each of his right and left sides. Ares can also defend himself with his claws at times, which will be followed by the aforementioned claw attack. Both of these new attacks can be blocked. Finally as Ares has small HP left, it uses a new attack in which he teleports and starts bombarding Kratos with fireballs. These fireballs cannot be blocked and must be dodged repeatedly as they are launched rapidly. Ares is out of reach while using this attack. While the battle will be long, Ares will drop large amounts of Green Orbs and to a lesser extent Blue Orbs, allowing the player to regain their strength and keep in the battle. Strategy Ares is fierce and his attacks can do a lot of damage and leave little room to defend or evade while attacking him. It is better to tackle this fight defensively as Ares can brutally punish players who neglect defense, which is especially true in higher difficulities in which he can end the fight in a few blows. The Blades of Chaos are the preferred weapon as it is fast and has range that allows players to evade easier and be more on the alert of Ares' attacks. It is possible to somewhat stunlock Ares with an aggressive approach. The Army of Hades is by far the best option for quick and dirty damage that can keep Ares locked due to the number of hits. This in conjunction with the Blade of Artemis can greatly damage Ares while limiting his attacks, although this relies on luck and the player being able to react in time and either block or evade whenever necessary. All of Ares' attacks can be blocked except the hammer pound and the fireball attack. His attacks are executed quick but are also telegraphed by certain actions. His axe swing is announced by summoning his axe before slicing with it. His hammer pound has him summon his hammer with his arms above his head, this attack cannot be blocked but can be parried, however it will follow with a hammer swing, so players should evade as soon as they parry or they will be stunned. The hammer pound is often used when Ares runs towards Kratos. His claw attacks are all announced by moving his claws in some fashion such as moving his claws to the front before trying to stab with all of them, or moving his back to either the left side or right side, as he readies to extend his claws or block some attacks with them which is always followed by a side claw attack. All claw attacks have extreme range. His second hammer attacks has him summon his hammer while rotating it, he will charge Kratos with it before trying to burn him with the flamethrower at the back, the flamethrower, contrary to appearances can be blocked. Whenever Ares rises his hands with no weapon summoned, he will try to tackle Kratos which initiates a combo. Finally when Ares will use his fireball attack he will typically glow in flames before teleporting. This attack cannot be blocked, and can be either evaded or interrupted via Zeus' Fury. The Rage of the Gods can be used with impunity here as it will be refilled at the end of the fight. Use it for a large amount of damage, even more so if the unlimited magic bonus has been unlocked. Players are encouraged not to utilize burn their Magic meter too much, as it will be necessary to make the next battle easier. Ares doesn't drop as many Blue Orbs as he does Green Orbs, so preserving some Magic is encouraged. Ares will continuously stand still use this chance to attack and deal large damage to Ares. The final sequence of the fight is tricky as it involved Kratos engaged in a strength contest with Ares which requires extensive O button pressing. The tricky part comes soon after, as the player is prompted into a Quick Time Event in which the correct button must be pressed twice to end the fight. The transition between O button and QTE is quite short and it is common for players to press the O button during the QTE, which often means the sequence is broken, allowing Ares to regenerate, some HP, although the player can attack him before he restores too much. All in all one should pay careful attention. Battle 2 Kratos now faces doppelgangers of himself which intend to kill his family. If either him or his family die it is a game over. The copies are not that durable but they appear in swarms and there is a large number of them before the battle is over. As the battle progresses the house will break apartand the overall map will be reduced. A floating platform at the back will spawn a copy which periodically used Zeus' Fury to stun the player, allowing the rest of the copies to attack the family with impunity. Closer to the end of the battle, copies wielding Blade of Artemis will appear. These are extremely dangerous as they deal considerably more damage to the family than the other copies. Strategy Magic will come in handy here, which is why the player should have preferably a full meter bar from the previous battle. Army of Hades will be the player's best tool in keeping the clones at bay. Rage of the Gods with Magic Unlimited will also be a tremendous help, as the player can repeatedly spam Army of Hades and Poseidon's Fury, letting them crowd control effectively. Defeated clones will yield blue orbs. The Blades of Chaos are also the better weapon for crowd control here through Plume of Prometheus Square, Square, Triangle. Don't let the clones, close to you as it can trigger a grab sequence in which you must shake them off, losing you precious time and momentum. Grabing the clones is an instant kill but is ill advised as it takes a long time to kill one and there is a swarm to fend off. Simply spam the strongest attacks available and save nothing, for neither the Magic nor Rage meter will be necessary for the next battle. It is, however, a wise idea to reserve a cast of Army of Hades in case the family needs healing as the clones can interrupt you. If one doesn't not succeed they should not be discouraged, as the battle does rely quite a bit on luck. If they feel like they don't have enough magic at the start, consider restarting the first battle and ending it with more magic. Battle 3 The final battle and a potentially frustrating one. The fight is a tug of war between both fighters as they try to fill their own bar at the expense of the other, this leaves ample room to recover for both parties. However, Kratos has neither Magic nor Rage meter and his attacks with the Blade of the Gods are far simpler than Ares' attacks which are more complex and far more devastating. Ares' new attacks include a sword combo that can be blocked. His own version of Army of Hades which can be blocked as well. A magic attack in which Ares will teleport before summoning 4 giant rocks which will collide and explode, which cannot be blocked. By far his worst attack is a hand blast that cannot be blocked and will leave Kratos stunned, which is always followed by a claw multi hit attack which Kratos will not be able to evade or block while stunned resulting in unfair one-sided damage that can let Ares gain a lot of advantage or regain a lot of his own lost gauge. In higher difficulities this combo can instantly turn the tide of the battle or be an instant kill. Ares will continuously run towards the player which is almost always either a sword combo or a hand blast. He will periodically roar after using some of these attacks. Strategy Players should prioritize defense here as offense is not in their side, evade Ares and attack only when an opportunity rises as you do not want to risk a hand blast or the claw attack that comes after. Do not bother with the Blade of the Gods' techniques as they aren't as powerful nor nearly as effective at draining his gauge and are slow in nature. By far the best way to deal damage against Ares involves a sequence in which Kratos clashes swords with the God of War, this allows the player a QTE in which they are prompted to spam the O button. Should they succeed, Kratos will perform a series of sword attacks which will deal enormous damage to Ares and leave him stunned afterwards allowing one to deal more damage. In order to trigger the sequence one must attack Ares until he blocks with his own sword and keep attacking until the O button prompt appears. There is a caveat, however, Ares can block Kratos' attacks in a way that the sequence won't be triggered and will result in a counter. The best way to determine whether the sequence will be triggered is if Ares was made to flinch before he blocked, if he took damage but did not flinch and blocked, then evade, as the sequence will not be triggered. If Ares flinched, took damage and decided to block, then continue. Take advantage of whenever Ares roars at the end of some of his attacks to slam him and trigger the sequence. Another chance to deal damage comes when he teleports. He will always teleport to the upper part of the map in the middle before casting his rock attack. There is quite a delay before the rocks are summoned, use it to land anywhere between two to three hits before rolling away. There is also some room for damage right after the rocks explode as he won't attack immediately. Worth noting that, although rare, Ares gauge can be depleted as he readies this attack, if this happen the battle won't end until he finishes this move. Once he is hit one more time the battle should end. Relationships Zeus Unlike most of the other gods, Ares ignored Zeus's orders and had no fear of Zeus's wrath, to the point that he challenged his father several times while mocking him for sending a "broken mortal" to fight him, instead of facing Ares by himself. Athena Ares has a deep hatred for his sister, as he refuses to even stay in Olympus when she is around. Ares considers Athena weak and is always trying to prove himself as superior to the goddess of war, or attacking her in every opportunity, as when he would command Kratos to attack the villages and cities that were sacred to the goddess. Ares envies the amount of respect and worship that Athena receives from other deities and mortals, while he himself is hated and despised. Kratos Back in the days when Kratos was still his servant, Ares considered him an almost "perfect warrior", possibly because they both shared the same rage, hatred and love for bloodshed. However, unlike Ares, Kratos still loved and cared deeply for his family; feelings that were considered a weakness by the god of war. After Kratos abandoned Ares, the warrior god started to despise Kratos, considering him just a "broken mortal" with no value and saying he was every bit as weak as the day the Spartan begged Ares to save his life. Gallery Tomb of AresAres, the fallen God of WarAres in God of War AscensionAres as he appears in multiplayerAres undistortedConcept artAres effigy in GoW Ascension Trivia Ares was voiced by Steven Blum in God of War and God of War Ascension, and by Fred Tatasciore in God of War III. Interestingly, he shared the same voice actor Steven Blum as Lucifer from the animated movie of Dante's Inferno, a game that shared many gameplay mechanics and themes. Ares' appearance changed dramatically during the development of God of War. Originally, David Jaffe had intended for the god to appear as "ninety percent energy and ten percent material", but because of the limited power of the PS2, Ares' appearance was gradually stripped back to the warrior seen in the final product. Ares also appeared as the main antagonist at the end of Spartan Total Warrior, a game that shared many similarities with God of War. During the final battle, after Kratos is robbed of his blades and magic, Ares will use the Army of Hades ability, implying he has some degree of power stealing or perhaps, with him being a God, can also withdraw blessings or powers other Olympians have given him. Because he was killed by Kratos, it was rather unlikely that Ares had a chance to be affected by the evils of Pandora's Box, as he did not truly display any characteristics of the evils the Box contained. As such, Ares' threat to attack Olympus as well as his bloodthirsty ways were already part of his own character. Ares is technically responsible for Kratos' standard appearance with the exception of the scar on the latter's abdomen. He attacked Kratos when the latter was a child, giving him a scar on his right eye and then took Deimos away, leaving Kratos to think his brother was dead and thus caused him to tattoo himself in a way similar to Deimos' birthmark. He also tricked Kratos into killing his own family, thereby causing their ashes to attach themselves to his skin. He even gave Kratos scars on his wrists when he attached the Blades of Chaos to it. It is unknown why, even if he was an enemy of Kratos, his illusion was used by Gaia in God of War II to encourage Kratos to fight back and revive himself after his death at the hands of Zeus. According to one of the Secret Messages at the end of God of War, Ares' soul was confined to a small chamber in Kratos' Throne Room, and was forever tormented by an unknown force. Ares' human-sized avatar was only seen in Ghost of Sparta in flashbacks that showed him taking Deimos away and scarring Kratos. Ares was one of the mentors for God of War Ascension Multiplayer. That made him the only mentor who wasn't a son of Cronos he's his grandson instead. Ares was ranked on 55th place of the Top 100 Video Game Villains on IGN. Ares was the only God in the series shown with the ability to grow retractable blade-like spider legs from his back. It remained unknown if there were other Olympians with that ability or if it's unique to Ares. Megaera, one of the Furies, had spider-like legs growing out of her back their appearance was very similar, though more insect-like, compared to Ares' but they were not on fire and they seemed to be truly a part of her physiology. Based on Ares' appearance in God of War Ascension, his ability to grow those spider legs wasn't a secret to the Champions of Ares. In other words, Kratos would have known that Ares had that ability as was implied by Kratos' complete lack of surprise. The legs were mostly a surprise for the gamer. The Champions of Ares had a natural bounding with fire and gained energy from battle as revealed in Ares' Trailer of Ascension. In God of War Ascension, Ares was seen with shorter hair and beard than in the other games. The reason of the change was still unknown. It was most likely, however, that Ares, like the other Gods, could change his appearance depending on whatever suited him. Since Ares' appearance in Ascension is shown in flashbacks, it is possible this was Ares' appearance prior to Kratos' birth or as the game took place ten years prior to the original game. Ares is technically responsible for the events of the Greek-era games of the series by tricking Kratos into killing his family, he would set him on the path that would lead to Olympus' destruction. Ironically, Ares lacks a mustache with his facial hair, a gesture which is seen by most cultures as a symbol of non-violence and pacifism. Mustaches are strongly associated with military services and thus removing them was considered a symbolic gesture of rejecting militarism. v d eGods in the God of War seriesGreekGods AeĂ«tes Amphitrite Aphrodite Apollo Ares Ariadne Artemis Asclepius Athena Boreas Circe Demeter Dionysus Erinys Eurus Hades Hephaestus Hera Hercules Hermes Hestia Iris Kratos Medea Muses Nike Notus Orkos Pelias Persephone Phobos Poseidon Triton Zephyrus Zeus Zora and Lora Titans Atlas Cronos Echidna Eos Epimetheus Gaia Helios Hyperion Iapetus Mnemosyne Oceanus Perses Prometheus Rhea Themis Thera Typhon Demigods Calliope Castor and Pollux Ceryx Deimos Hercules Kratos Medea Orkos Peirithous Pelias Perseus Theseus Zora and Lora Primordials Atropos Ceto Chaos Clotho Erebus Eros Gaia Graeae Morpheus Nemesis Nyx Ouranos Ourea Sisters of Fate Tartarus Thanatos The Furies Alecto Lahkesis Megaera Orkos Tisiphone NorseAesir Baldur Bragi BĂșri Forseti GnĂĄ Heimdall Hör HƓnir Iunn Magni Meili Modi Nanna Odin Sif Sleipnir Thor TĂœr Ullr VĂ­arr Vili VĂ© Vanir Beyla Freya Freyr Nerthus Njörd Misc.

RĂ©sumĂ© Index Plan Texte Notes Citation Auteur RĂ©sumĂ©s This paper studies the history of deforestation in Ireland under the impact of consequent arrivals and departures, among which the advent of Christianity and the Anglo-Norman colonisation left a permanent mark on both the Irish landscape and culture. The aim is to understand how the island of Ireland, once known for its dense woodlands, became almost entirely denuded of tree cover by the end of the 19th century and continues to be among the least forested regions in Europe. The history of deforestation in Ireland is an example of how environmental phenomena are closely linked with wider cultural and political concerns that characterise a certain period of history. Deforestation in Ireland was part of the colonial narrative that focused on subjugating the native population by taming the very landscape upon which they depended as a dwelling place. Cet article traite de l’histoire de la dĂ©forestation en Irlande, au travers des flux migratoires consĂ©cutifs, parmi lesquels l’avĂšnement du christianisme et la colonisation anglo-normande, qui ont laissĂ© une marque permanente Ă  la fois sur la culture et le paysage irlandais. Il vise Ă  comprendre comment l’üle d’Irlande, autrefois connue pour ses denses rĂ©gions boisĂ©es, est devenue presque entiĂšrement dĂ©nuĂ©e de couverture forestiĂšre Ă  la fin du XIXe siĂšcle et reste encore l’une des rĂ©gions les moins boisĂ©es d’Europe. Cette histoire de la dĂ©forestation en Irlande est un exemple du lien Ă©troit entre les phĂ©nomĂšnes environnementaux et de plus larges prĂ©occupations culturelles et politiques qui caractĂ©risent une certaine pĂ©riode historique. La dĂ©forestation en Irlande participe du discours colonial qui s’évertua Ă  asservir la population locale en domestiquant prĂ©cisĂ©ment le paysage dont elle dĂ©pendait pour son de page EntrĂ©es d’index Haut de page Texte intĂ©gral Introduction 1 Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, Global Forest Resources Assessment 2015, 2... 1Once considered one of the most heavily-forested regions in Europe, the Republic of Ireland lies at the bottom of the European forest cover index with less than 11% of its total land area under forest cover. Northern Ireland, with about 7% coverage, is often included with the rest of the United Kingdom with 13% forest cover1. Yet as the commemorative epithets of “The Isle of Wood” and “Emerald Green” imply, the memory of Ireland as a country densely covered in woodlands persists in Irish place names that owe their existence to the once significant relationship between people and trees in ancient Ireland. Derry, for example, is taken from Doire, signifying an oak grove. The prefix “Kill / Kil / Cill”, common in Irish place names such as Kilcommon, Kildare, Kilkenny, derives from the Irish word Coill, which means a wood. MacCuill, son of hazel, MacCairthin, son of rowan, MacIbair, son of yew, and MacCuilin, son of holly, are also examples of Irish names related to trees. 2 Carl J. Griffin, “Space and Place – Popular Perceptions of Forests”, in New Perspectives on People ... 3 Ibid. 4 Miranda Green, Animals in Celtic Life and Myth, London – New York, Routledge, 1992, p. 1-2. 5 See Charles Squire, Celtic Myth and Legend Poetry and Romance, London, Gresham Publishing Company, ... 2Trees are interpreted as “charismatic’ mega flora and fauna”2, which play an important role in invoking feelings of geopiety among environmental and regional groups. Coined by J. K. Wright in 1947, geopiety denotes “the sense of piety felt by humans in relation to both the natural world and the geographical space”3. In Ireland, feelings of geopiety as well as regional and national identity have often evolved around trees like oak, hazel, holly, and ash, which carry strong cultural implications. In Celtic cultures, “Every tree, mountain, rock and spring possessed its own spirit or numen” which had the power to “both foster and destroy living things”4. Trees were venerated by Irish Celts as a source of spirituality and power5. Along with herbs, they were used as medicine or associated with keeping off bad spirits or bringing good luck. Also included in the ancient Brehon laws, trees were considered communal property and cutting or mutilating them was a serious offence. 3Taking into consideration this early culture of tree veneration, it is worth asking how the island of Ireland became almost entirely denuded of tree cover by the end of the 19th century and now lies at the bottom of the European forest cover index. This essay addresses the cultural implications of deforestation in Ireland as a narrative that unveils the story of consequent arrivals and departures in the island of Ireland with an emphasis on two major events in Irish history the Anglo-Norman colonisation of Ireland since the 12th century and the advent of Christianity in the 6th century AD. A timeline of arrivals and departures 4The interaction of man and woodlands in Ireland is believed to have begun with the arrival of Mesolithic people, who were primarily fishers, hunters, and gatherers. Timber was used to make boats and houses. The settlement of Neolithic farmers around five to six thousand years ago and the development of the blanket bog resulted in the earliest clearance of forests, which mostly affected the West and Midlands. 5The next group of settlers were the Celtic tribes who arrived in Ireland around 800 BC. The Irish Celts started a new phase of interaction with the wooded environment, commonly known as “tree veneration”. Hazel meant wisdom; ash, yew, and oak were considered as sacred, and birch was associated with love. Trees were included in the ancient legal code of Ireland, known as the Brehon laws. According to their size, use, and fruit type, tree species stood for social order. In contrast to Norman Forest Laws which gave absolute ownership to an individual, the woodland laws in the Irish legal system were part of the common laws, where one piece of land with its natural resources was allocated to an individual of a high rank in trust, to be transferred to the next patron, who was not necessarily a direct inheritor. Communal ownership gave way to the rise of feudalism after the Norman Conquest in 1161. Medieval ownership, the development of the blanket bog, and farming resulted in what could be regarded as the first major period of deforestation in Ireland during the 12th and 13th centuries. 6 Eoin Neeson, “Woodland in History and Culture”, p. 140-141. 7 “History of Forestry in Ireland”, Forest Service, Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine w ... 6The felling of the forests and the change of land use accelerated in the 16th century when Ireland officially became a British colony. The industrial development of the fuel-hungry British Isle, the growing demand for cheap timber used for shipbuilding purposes, and the inefficient and corrupt system of forest administration in Tudor England put the pressure on Ireland as a suitable target for invasion, both strategically and economically. The vast clearance of forests for agricultural purposes continued during the plantation period. “[S]ystematic plantation on a vast scale” from 1556 to 1690, by the English, Welsh, and Scottish landlords, conquered and subdued the inhabitants whose defence capabilities were dependent on forests as shelter and ambush6. The 17th-century plantation, which had started in the southern Midlands, spread through the entire country, leaving million out of 2 million acres of Irish landscape under plantation7. 7After the Tudors, deforestation continued during the Stuart and Commonwealth periods, decreasing wildlife biodiversity and gradually alienating the Irish, who had earlier relied on the woods as shelter, dwelling, and source of livelihood. In less than a hundred years the social and environmental effects of deforestation were already visible in Ireland. Native species such as wolves, eagles, birds of prey, and wild cats had dwindled as a result of losing their natural habitats. The Irish people, on the other hand, underwent immense pressure from the British colonisers who had not only bereft them of their shelter and source of income, but also gradually alienated them from their own dwellings in proximity of the woods. This was worsened in the aftermath of the Act of Union 1800 and the consequences of absentee landlordism, which severely affected the countryside, already hit by the increasing demand for food and shelter as a result of population growth from 1700 to 1840. 8 Eoin Neeson, “Woodland in History and Culture”, p. 146. 9 Ibid. 8Nature, which had remained a source of livelihood and spirituality for centuries, had gradually become an awe-inspiring, threatening presence. The shift in attitudes is apparent in the reaction to the early reforestation schemes that planned to improve the rapidly dwindling Irish forests in the 18th century. Reforestation started in 1765, at the hands of the gentry who were direct descendants of the planters. The schemes were “insufficient” and “clearly elitist”8, not paying the least attention to the local population and the negative impact of colonisation in poor rural areas. The Irish, who already regarded landowners as “foreigners’ and grabbers’”9, became more hostile towards both the owners and the land. The continuing hostility persisted for well over a century in the shape of mutilating and cutting trees as a sign of political protest. The reforestation scheme continued until 1845, regardless of the famine-stricken farmers who were denied all source of income during the minor periods of famine in the 19th century. Ultimately an Gorta MĂłr, the Great Irish Famine that resulted in the death of more than one million people and the emigration of another million from 1845 to 1852, proved the indifference of the formerly “benign” nature to the suffering of millions of poor farmers whose only means of survival was the land. 10 Forest Service Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, “Irish Forests – A Brief History”, 20 ... 9The last but not least major cause of deforestation after the Great Famine was the Land Act of 1881, implemented for the purpose of transferring land ownership to farmers. Bereft of their major source of profit, 19th-century landlords cleared vast areas of forests to compensate for the loss of their previously owned lands. Furthermore, farmers exploited the remaining woodlands in search of tillage and grazing. When state forestry began replanting trees in 1903, only 69,000 hectares of Ireland’s ancient and long-established forests were left, 1 to of the total land area10. 11 Ibid. 12 Eoin Neeson, “Woodland in History and Culture”, p. 154. 10State forestry stopped during the decades that led to the independence of Ireland from Britain. The newly independent state had other priorities on the agenda and reforestation disappeared in the background for some time. The increased demand for fuel and timber during World War I had led to a further reduction of Ireland’s forest, and World War II also hindered state afforestation to a considerable extent until the Forestry Act of 1946, which accelerated the process of planting trees by up to 10,000 acres per annum. Furthermore, Ireland’s entry in the European Economic Community now the European Union in 1973 encouraged afforestation through the privatisation of Ireland’s forestry11. The European funds, including European Commission grants, helped “eliminating the sheep / tree conflict” among the farmers who had joined the reforestation scheme to plant trees in marginal farmlands. According to Neeson, “by 1979 Ireland had the largest and most rapidly expanding forest area per capita in Europe”12. Yet this acceleration was to be hindered once again as the country entered a new phase of economic prosperity during the Celtic Tiger period. Among other factors, the growth of urban sprawl led to an increasing demand for building roads that connected the countryside to the cities, which at times required vast clearance of the wooded regions. The popularity of Ireland as a tourist destination since the last decades of the 20th century has also had a double-sided impact on the landscape. While cultural tourism has led to the preservation of certain areas such as Lough Gill in Co. Sligo or Coole Park in Galway, the increasing human interference with the landscape as a result of insufficient management, frequent visits, road construction, traffic, and pollution has had adverse effects on the environment. 13 Richard O’Hanlon, “Forestry in Ireland The Reforestation of a Deforested Country”, The Forestry So ... 14 Environmental Protection Agency, Ireland’s Environment – An Assessment, Wexford, EPA, 2016, p. 110. 15 Richard O’Hanlon, “Forestry in Ireland
”, p. 7. 16 Owain Jones, “Materiality and Identity – Forests, Trees and Senses of Belonging”, in New Perspectiv ... 11Afforestation, the creation of new forests, is still at the top of Ireland’s environmental agenda, targeting million hectares to be covered by 2030, 17% of the total land use13. Despite the continuing process of reviving Ireland’s woodlands during the last century, less than 11% of Ireland’s total land area is under forest cover today, leaving the Republic of Ireland at the lower end of the spectrum compared to the European average of Afforestation is now subject to strict environmental regulations due to biodiversity considerations. Planting the wrong species of trees or cultivating the wrong area would endanger the balance of the ecosystem, which would in turn lead to the extinction of more vulnerable species and the multiplication of others. The European Union-funded schemes to stop further agricultural land use by planting trees in marginal farmlands during the 1980s is one instance that caused a serious threat to bogland biodiversity. Instead of planting on marginal farmlands, the farmers who were given a grant to avoid further land use planted large areas of peat bogs with coniferous evergreen trees such as pine or spruce. The non-native species of Sitka spruce, Norway spruce, Lodgepole pine and Japanese larch make up a total of 60% of Ireland’s forest area compared to an average of 25% cover by native species like oak, with a growth period of 120 to 150 years15. Sitka spruce, which takes about 35 to 55 years to mature, is considered a dominant and renewable source of timber in Ireland despite its lower wood quality as a result of fast growth. On a cultural level, conifers lack the symbolic significance of oaks as emblems of nationhood and spirituality in Ireland and might as well carry “further political and ideological discourses” as in the case of the British dislike of conifers mentioned by Owain Jones16. 12Having briefly covered the major incidents that led to the deforestation of Ireland, the rest of this essay focuses on the arrival of colonisers and the advent of Christianity as two major events that altered not only the actual shape and form of the landscape, but also changed people’s understanding of their surrounding environment and consequently their relationship with it. Deforested landscapes – the arrival of colonisers 17 “Ireland’s Lost Glory”, Birds and All Nature, vol. 7, no. 4, April 1900, p. 188. 13The constant arrival of the neighbouring tribes and countries and the turbulent history of conquests and exploitations alongside periods of climate change and natural disaster modified the Irish environment in line with Irish culture. From the arrival of the first Christian missionaries to the Norman Conquest of Ireland and from the introduction of feudalism to the later British rule, the land appears to have been the first target of transformation in Ireland. The anonymous writer of “Ireland’s Lost Glory” in Birds and All Nature 1900 refers to “the gradual rise of English supremacy in the land” as the most important factor that led to the destruction of Ireland’s forests. The English landlords destroyed the woodlands “to increase the amount of arable land, to deprive the natives of shelter, to provide fuel, and to open out the country for military purposes”. The writer further refers to the increasing value of timber and the continual destruction of the wooded landscape from the 17th century to the 19th, leaving Ireland with only one eightieth of its forested landscape in 190017. 18 Annette Jocelyn Otway-Ruthven, A History of Medieval Ireland, London, E. Benn, 1968, p. 1. 14At first glance, economic gain seems to be the primary motivation behind the exploitation of forests as well as the cultivation of land and the building of towns. Unlike the native Gaels who did not show much interest in landscaping and farming, the Norman and English settlers had an eye for the hidden profit in the development of an agricultural system as well as using Ireland’s dense forests in the form of a timber reservoir. In 1183, Gerald of Wales, who had travelled to Ireland “partly to join the Norman Conquest, partly to see and explore the country”18, found the Irish lack of interest in farming and husbandry a sign of barbarity. In the tenth chapter of Topographia Hibernica 1187 he describes the character, customs, and habits of the Irish people as barbarous and slothful 19 Gerald of Wales, The Topography of Ireland, Thomas Wright ed., Thomas Forester trad., Cambridge ... The Irish are a rude people, subsisting on the produce of their cattle only, and living themselves like beasts – a people that has not yet departed from the primitive habits of pastoral life. [
] their pastures are short of herbage; cultivation is very rare, and there is scarcely any land sown. [
] The whole habits of the people are contrary to agricultural pursuits19. 20 Ibid., p. 70. 15Dependent on fishing, gathering, hunting, and keeping cattle for the most part, the Gaelic civilisation before the Conquest was automatically considered inferior by the Normans and later on by the English, whose comparatively developed system of agriculture had enabled them to draw benefit from the land. For Gerald of Wales, who described the movement from “the forest to the field, from the field to the town” as a natural course from barbarity to civilisation20, the Irish way of life and customs were indeed a sign of incivility and lack of industry. Interestingly, it was not the uncultivated land per se that was subject to negative portrayal; more often than not, the description of the natives’ appearance matched the hostile description of their surrounding landscape as “truly barbarous” 21 Ibid. This people, then, is truly barbarous, being not only barbarous in their dress, but suffering their hair and beard barbis to grow enormously in an uncouth manner [
] indeed all their habits are barbarism. [Barbarism] sticks to them like a second nature21. 22 Declan Kiberd, Inventing Ireland The Literature of the Modern Nation, London, Vintage, 1996, p. 9. 23 Edmund Spenser, A Veue of the Present State of Ireland [1596], Risa S. Bear ed., Renascence Editi ... 24 Ibid., p. 5. 16The derogatory portrayal of the Irish people became a common reference in the later colonial period, when the English found the colonised “the perfect foil to set off their virtues”22. Edmund Spenser’s description of Irish people in A Veue of the Present State of Ireland 1596 resembles that of Gerald of Wales in attributing characteristics such as wildness, barbarity, sloth, and disorder to the native inhabitants. In a dialogue between the English-based interlocutors Eudoxus and Irenius, the latter, who has recently returned from a recent trip to Ireland and appears to be an expert on Irish matters, explains the native laws, religion, and customs as why the “goodly and commodious [
] soyle” of Ireland had not turned “to good uses, and reducing that salvage nation to better goverment and civillity”23. The term salvage obsolete for savage is a derivative of sylva, Latin for wood, which further explains the association of the natives with their wooded landscape from a negative perspective. What is seen in both narratives is a colonial point of view that ultimately justifies the exploitation of the neighbouring land. Like Gerald of Wales, Spenser points to the agricultural potential of the Irish soil, yet he goes a step further by asserting his colonial perspective on subjugating the people. Cultivating the land was not only to put the soil to “good use”, but to bring the so-called “savage nation” under control and civilise them. While describing the local Brehon laws to Eudoxus and explaining why the English rule had not yet tamed the natives, Irenius reduces the Irish people to animals left on their own, in need of a bridle24. 25 Oona Frawley, Irish Pastoral Nostalgia and Twentieth-Century Irish Literature, London – Dublin, Ir ... 26 William Cronon, “A Place for Stories Nature, History, and Narrative”, in Nature and Identity in Cr ... 17The colonial narrative clearly functions on a dichotomous axis where the colonised are stigmatised as wild, barbarous, and uncultivated; in one word, as other. According to Oona Frawley, aligning “the uncultivated state that the Irish were believed to live in” with “the uncultivated state of the land” implied that taming the landscape would result in taming the people25. Hence, the notoriety of the bogs and woodlands was not only a result of the hidden military threat from the Irish; rather the negative attitude towards wilderness and the association of the inhabitants with the wild landscape of their surroundings justified a reform policy to tame the landscape. In the words of William Cronon, the negative attitude towards a landscape is prerequisite to transforming it “[
] the most basic requirement of [exploiting the land] is that the earlier form of that landscape must either be neutral or negative in value. It must deserve to be transformed”26. 27 Roy Jackson, “Overcoming Physicophobia – Forests as Sacred Source of Our Human Origins”, in New Per ... 18Viewed from an ecocritical perspective, the colonised / coloniser binary also reinforces the negative attitude towards nature in the nature / culture dichotomy, justifying the modification and transformation of the physical environment. While referring to the rather unsuccessful project of subjugating the natives under the practice of English laws under Henry VIII and a further suppression of the Irish people during the reign of the “Faerie Queene” – Queen Elizabeth I – Spenser’s derogatory portrayal of the Irish system of law, religion, and customs can be studied under the English superior stance not only towards the Irish people but also towards nature. Man as the master of the universe, placed at the uppermost level in the Great Chain of Being – the fruit of Christian and Scholastic philosophies – was still a popular ideology during the Renaissance. This antagonistic view turned into physicophobia, the “alienated, hostile reaction to the natural world”27, which the likes of Descartes and Hobbes promoted during the Enlightenment. 28 John Wilson Foster, “Encountering Traditions”, in Nature in Ireland A Scientific and Cultural Hist ... 29 Martin Heidegger, Basic Writings, David Farrell Krell ed., London, Routledge, 1993, p. 322. 19While the negative attitude towards the landscape was a key strategy for transforming it, the potential economic benefit of the Irish soil reinforced the colonial narrative of progress based on cultivation and manipulation of the land. Hence, the density of the woods “was to be deplored but also welcomed” deplored for the fear of the unknown harboured in the Irish wilderness, and welcomed for the potential economic benefit of its soil28, described by Spenser as “good and commodious”. Cultivation was to bring the maximum energies of the land to the surface, releasing the hidden profit by taming the wilderness. To refer to the unprecedented felling of the forests during the colonial period in Ireland, either for the purpose of transforming woodlands to agricultural land or for the use of timber, the forests and the entire landscape had turned into a massive “standing-reserve” of timber “on call for a further ordering” – what Heidegger calls Bestand29. The point of view that reduces the landscape to Bestand stands in sharp contrast with the comparatively less intervening role of early Irish culture, misinterpreted as a lack of civilisation in Norman and English views of Ireland. 30 Ibid., p. 317. 31 Ibid., p. 321. 32 Ibid. 20The relationship between colonisers and the Irish landscape can be further explained through the Heideggerian notion of Anwesen presencing, which implies disclosure and “bringing-forth” an entity through unconcealment30. The coloniser’s disclosure of the landscape, however, can be interpreted as Herausfordern, challenging or forcing an entity toward “furthering something else”31. Rather than “setting-in-order” presencing as Heidegger observed in The Question Concerning Technology, Herausfordern “sets upon nature”32. Hence it is an expedition in two ways 33 Ibid. It expedites in that it unlocks and exposes. Yet that expediting is always itself directed from the beginning toward furthering something else, toward driving on to the maximum yield at the minimum expense33. 34 Aldo Leopold, A Sand County Almanac, New York, Oxford University Press, 1949. 21This is what Spenser referred to as making “good use” of the soil in Ireland. Viewing the landscape from a standing-reserve perspective is an ecological hindrance to establishing a land community based on a mutual interaction between humans and the environment, mentioned by Aldo Leopold in A Sand County Almanac 194934. One can possibly argue that a notion of land ethics or geopiety was present in Irish society before the Norman Conquest. As mentioned earlier, the land was a communally owned property in Brehon laws. The very fact that cutting or destroying the trees was consequent with paying fines is proof of a higher degree of ethics regarding the land community. As such, the linear notion of colonial progress is drastically reversed; the pre-Conquest Irish society would stand at a higher ecological level of progress compared to the colonisers’ anthropocentric view of the land as potential profit. 35 Martin Heidegger, “Building Dwelling Thinking”, in Poetry, Language, Thought, Albert Hofstadter ed ... 36 Ibid., p. 147. 37 Ibid. 38 Ibid., p. 146. 22Linked to the notion of land ethics, the human-environment interaction in early Irish culture can be interpreted as dwelling. In “Building Dwelling Thinking” 1971, Heidegger pursues the links between dwelling and being through the act of building “The Old English and High German word for building, buan, means to dwell. This signifies to remain, to stay in a place”35. The German terms for building Bauen and neighbour Nachbar originate from “buri, bĂŒren, beuren, beuron”, which signify “dwelling, the abode, the place of dwelling”36. Heidegger continues digging up the root of the verb bauen to build, only to arrive at the verb bin to be. Therefore, ich bin and du bist mean “I dwell, you dwell. The way in which you are and I am, the manner in which we humans are on the earth, is Buan, dwelling”37. It is from building to being both derived from the verb “to be” that mankind’s relationship with the environment takes the shape of dwelling, which in return leads to caring and sparing. Hence, building appears as a means to an end, we build to stay in a place, to dwell. Yet, the fundamental meaning of building as dwelling “has been lost to us”38. 39 Bruce Proudfoot, “The Economy of the Irish Rath”, Medieval Archaeology, vol. 5, no. 1, 1961, p. 94. 40 Ibid. 23The dwelling perspective in the human-environment interaction in early Irish culture can be exemplified in the building of raths, first built in Ireland in the first millennium AD39. Also known as forts or ringforts, raths were circular fortifications, which remained in use until the 12th century40. A prototype of an Irish dwelling place in proximity of the natural landscape, raths along with duns, cathairs, and other fortifications were first abandoned or destroyed in the Christian period. Despirited forests – the advent of Christianity 24Among the poems preserved from the early medieval period in Ireland is the trio of fragments from the 6th century AD with which Thomas Kinsella has opened The New Oxford Book of Irish Verse. The three fragments, read together as a whole, act as a premonition of how the arrival of the other – the Christian missionaries – disrupted the so-called “natural” order of the pagan world, in which the relationship between man and environment could be described as dwelling The rath in front of the oak woodbelonged to Bruidge, and Cathal, belonged to Aedh, and Ailill, belonged to Conaing, and CuilĂ­neand to MaelDĂșin before them– all kings in their turn. The rath survives, the kingsare covered in clay. *** Three rounded flanks I lovedand never will see again the flank of Tara, the flank of Tailtiuand the flank of Aed Mac Ainmirech. *** He is coming, Adzed-Head, on the wild-heade seawith cloak hollow-headedand curve-headed staff. 41 The New Oxford Book of Irish Verse, Thomas Kinsella ed. and trans., Oxford – New York, Oxford Uni ... He will chant false religionat a bench facing Eastand his people will answer“Amen, amen.”41 25The first fragment starts with “The rath in front of the oak wood” that had survived despite the death of the kings who were once owners of the rath. The construction of these dwelling places next to the groves, especially the oak tree which was considered sacred, sanctified the raths and placed man and nature in close proximity, making the words “environment” and “nature” truly interchangeable. 26Dwelling was not restricted to raths; rather the entire landscape environing these fortifications was considered a dwelling place by the early inhabitants. In the second fragment, the anonymous poet regrets that he would never see the “Three rounded flanks” of Tara, Tailtiu, and Aed Mac Ainmirech, again. As the fragment cuts short, the reason behind the poet’s sense of loss remains unknown. Yet, given the increasing power of Christianity in the 6th century, foreseen in the next fragment, the poet must have anticipated the near destruction of the sites. The sudden announcement of the arrival of the “Adzed-Head” in the first line of the last fragment – “He is coming” – is the harbinger of a sense of doom, arriving from the East. Chanting his “false religion”, the man with the “cloak” will soon be taking the first steps in changing the course of history in Ireland by desacralising the groves, bereaving the landscape from its protecting deity genius loci and disconnecting the native population from their surrounding environment. 27The Christian missionaries also played a fundamental role in the later abolishment of the native traditions of druidry and bardry and the destruction of assembly hills, inauguration sites, raths and forts; all that was associated with the pagan order of Gaelic society. An early example is the prologue from the 9th-century poem, “The Calendar of Oengus”, in which the destruction of the ancient dwelling places is hailed by the anonymous poet Tara’s great palace perishedwith the fall of its princeswhile great Armagh remainswith all its worthy choirs.[

] 42 Ibid., p. 38. The Pagans’ ancient cahirsnot permitted to last long– they are wastes without worship nowlike the place of Lugaid –42 43 Patrick Sheeran, “The Narrative Creation of Place Yeats and West of Ireland Landscapes”, in Nature ... 28The poet portrays the dĂșns, raths, and cahirs deserted and the pagan sites vanished with their kings. He compares the glory and majesty of the newly “crowded shrines” and monasteries to the deserted and destroyed dwelling places and worship sites of the pagan order. Destruction of the sites was equal to dislocating people from their dwelling places next to the forests, therefore distancing man from nature and bringing an end to an age when nature meant environment, a place that environs. Referring to Heidegger’s definition of dwelling, Patrick Sheeran argues that “the Irish, apart from the rath-dwellers, have never truly dwelt in Ireland any more than the aborigines have dwelt in Australia”43. With the loss of status as dwelling and the distancing of man from nature, the forests and groves became a periphery, which nevertheless prepared the grounds for the felling of the trees during the colonial period. 44 Thomas Kinsella, “Introduction”, in The New Oxford Book of Irish Verse, p. xxiii. 29Christianity’s role in Irish cultural history is double-sided. On the one hand, it prepared the grounds for the further destruction of the forests and the annihilation of earlier customs and traditions; on the other, it led to the preservation of some of the finest examples of Irish oral tradition, such as that of early Irish nature writing, where Christianity remains a “dominant element”; however, as Kinsella notes, the majority of the poems between the 6th and 14th centuries share “a pagan’ purity of view which gives the lyrics of the early Christian hermits their extraordinary directness and force”44. “Pangur BĂĄn” and “The Hermit MorbĂĄn” are famous examples, where the God of Christianity is seen in nature and the Christian hermits bewail the loss of an earlier connection to nature. Overall, there seems to be little unanimity as to whether it was the Norman Conquest or the English colonisation of Ireland that brought an end to early Irish nature writing. While Christianity desacralised the groves and the Norman Conquest opened the country to foreign exploitation, the decline of Ireland’s native traditions, including the genre of nature writing, accelerated under the reign of Tudor monarchs, exemplified in the following stanzas from a late 16th-century poem by the Monaghan poet Laoiseach Mac AnBhĂĄird A fond greeting, hillock there, though I’m cheerless at your decline a source of sorrow your brown thorn, the smooth stem we knew at your top. A grief to all, the gathering bushwe knew as our assembly place its boughs broken – a dismal day. The land is meaner now it’s gone. [
] 45 Laoiseach Mac AnBhĂĄird, “A Fond Greeting, Hillock There”, in The New Oxford Book of Irish Verse, p. ... The assembly hill – it troubles the schools –today in stranger’s hands. I am in sorrow for its slopes, the fair hill that held my love45. 30According to the poet, the cutting of the “beloved” tree and the decline of the hillock itself, which had been an inauguration site, had happened in the hands of the “stranger” – the English – who were also responsible for the decline of the bardic schools. By the end of the 16th century bardic poetry was on the wane as the continuous state of war and conflict in Ireland resulted in the banishment of the earls from their native lands, which put an end to the Irish patronage system. The final blow was the Flight of the Northern Earls, Tyrone and Tyrconnell, in 1607, which led to the plantation of Ulster and the rising of 1641. The story of Christianity in Ireland is no less complicated than the history of colonisation and its impact on the environment. Regardless of its subtler effect, Christianity’s role in the history of deforestation in Ireland was rather fundamental. By devaluing the landscape, revered by the Irish, the Christian missionaries set the grounds for the expedition and exploitation of the Irish landscape at the hands of the Norman and English colonisers. In other words, depriving the land of its former status as dwelling, Christianity brought about the earliest form of cultural mutation in Celtic Ireland, desacralisation of the landscape. Conclusion 46 Eoin Neeson, “Woodland in History and Culture”, p. 155. 47 Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine, Forest Statistics – Ireland 2019, Dublin, DAFM, 20 ... 31The history of human civilisation is often synonymous with the history of deforestation and Ireland is no exception in this case. Deforestation is a long and continuous narrative in Ireland, a narrative that links the colonisation of the land to the colonisation of man. As Eoin Neeson concludes in his study of “Woodland in History and Culture”, the history of deforestation covers a “full circle, from a country very largely covered by natural woodland, through one virtually denuded of tree cover, to one in which virtually all woodlands are cultivated as a crop and in which forestry is tree farming”46. Today, about half of the Irish forests are in private ownership and less than thirty years of age. Besides, the Republic of Ireland is still considered one of the largest exporters of wood to the United Kingdom47. 48 Ibid., p. 54. 49 Ibid., p. 73. 32The growing interest in Irish forestry as in many parts of the world falls back on multiple incentives among which economic gain seems to overshadow environmental concerns. Nowadays, forestry is considered a growing industry in Ireland with a total economic value of € billion in 2012, equivalent to € 1, million in terms of GVA Gross Value Added. Moreover, the forestry sector has been a source of employment, especially in rural areas while forest outdoor recreational areas have also been contributing to the Irish economy significantly48. According to the latest Forest Statistics annual report published by the Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine in 2019, Ireland still ranks among the least forested regions in Europe with an average of in 2015. This is while the European and Worldwide forest cover averages stand at and respectively49.

The Odinforce[1] is a powerful, mystical energy used by the Kings of Asgard, most notably Odin, hence its name. It is the source of power of the spear Gungnir wielded by the Kings of Asgard, and the Destroyer, and must be periodically replenished by entering the Odinsleep.[1] History War Against the Dark Elves Bor wielding Gungnir and the Odinforce Five thousand years ago, the then-king Bor led the armies of Asgard in their struggle against the Dark Elves into their Homeworld of Svartalfheim to secure the Aether, a weapon of infinite destruction. Upon arriving on the Dark World, Bor fired blasts of Odinforce from his spear Gungnir to cut down swaths of Dark Elves.[2] Jotunheim Invades Earth Odin wielding Gungnir and the Odinforce Using the Casket of Ancient Winters, the Jotuns sought to take over the other Realms and unleash a new Ice Age. They began with invading Midgard, but fortunately for its inhabitants the Asgardian armies led by Odin pushed back the Jotuns to their home world. During the war, Odin used his signature spear Gungnir to full effect against the Frost Giant hordes.[3] Thor's Banishment Destroyer fires blast of Odinforce from its head During Thor's coronation, a squad of Frost Giants infiltrated Odin's Vault. Sensing their presence, Odin activated the Destroyer, which was stored within the Vault itself. The Destroyer armor powered up, summoning the Odinforce and disintegrating the intruders with energy blasts emitted from its head.[3] Odin casts Thor out of Asgard After Thor's disobedience and reckless actions on Jotunheim endangered the Nine Realms, Odin stripped Thor of his power and banished him to Midgard. Odin takes Thor's hammer MjĂžlnir and uses it to channel a burst of Odinforce that broke apart Thor's armor and pushed him into the Bifrost.[3] After Loki angrily yelled at his adoptive father for not informing him of his true nature, Odin collapsed in shock. Immediately after, Loki called upon some guards that carried him to the bed chamber where he is supposed to stay until his Odinsleep is over, during which Odin would rejuvenate and replenish the Odinforce.[3] Thor confronts the Destroyer Due to Odin's inability to perform his actions as King of Asgard while in the Odinsleep, Loki was appointed regent, and after numerous subversive acts against his rule by his subjects and Thor's friends, Loki sent the Destroyer down to Earth after Thor. The automaton laid waste to the small town of Puente Antiguo by incinerating everything in sight with its optic blasts. After suffering fatal wounds as a mortal, Thor regains his power and quickly destroys the Destroyer, easily deflecting its blasts with MjĂžlnir.[3] After returning to Asgard and learning of the true state of things, Thor tries to stop Loki's plan to destroy Jotunheim. During the subsequent duel, Loki wields Gungnir and fires several Odinforce blasts against his brother.[3] Phase 2 As part of the Protocol Phase 2, the wreckage of the Destroyer Armor left behind in New Mexico was salvaged and reverse engineered by scientists to create a gun-like weapon of great power that would fire blasts of Odinforce like the automaton it was made from.[4] Loki's Campaign on Earth Phil Coulson threatens Loki After coming to conquer Earth, Loki was apprehended by Thor and his new allies at During Loki's escape, he fatally wounded Agent Phil Coulson with a stab through the heart after deceiving both him and Thor. Before succumbing to death, Coulson fired a Destroyer Armor Prototype Gun that was developed as part of Phase 2 from the wreckage of the Destroyer appropriated by The blast of Odinforce was powerful enough to blow Loki several meters back and through a wall.[5] Return of the Dark Elves Dark Elf felled by a blast of Odinforce The start of the Convergence and the unearthing of the Aether reactivated a dormant Dark Elf ship carrying the last survivors of their race. During the Dark Elves' attack on Asgard, Odin vanquished the last of the foes alive in the Throne Room after their initial descent.[2] Funeral Ritual Frigga dissolves into energy After the devastating attack and the death of Queen Frigga at the hands of Malekith, the deceased were put on funerary boats and floated to the edge of the Asgardian sea. Before falling off the end, Odin converted his fallen queen into energy using the Odinforce. While the vessel fell into the abyss, the Odinforce rose among the stars.[2] Attack on Cybertek Phil Coulson wields the Destroyer weapon During the Battle at Cybertek, Director Nick Fury showed up to help Coulson and his team against John Garrett and his Centipede Soldiers, bringing with him the Destroyer Armor Prototype Gun. Coulson used its concussive blasts to great effect against the Centipede Soldiers.[6] Kree Visitor Leo Fitz wields the Destroyer weapon After the activation of the ancient Kree City, the Kree Vin-Tak came to Earth to investigate the current state of the Inhumans and to eliminate any if found. came into conflict with him after it became clear he was after their teammate Skye. Leo Fitz used the Destroyer Armor Prototype Gun against the Kree while he was fighting against another teammate Bobbi Morse.[7] Ragnarök Begins Odin dissolves into the Odinforce After returning to Asgard from his travels in search of answers about the Infinity Stones and the Fall of Asgard, Thor went in search of his father Odin with his brother Loki, who had been masquerading as Odin and secretly ruling Asgard. Having found Odin overlooking a cliff in Norway, he told his sons it was his time to die and for Ragnarök to begin. Odin subsequently dissolved into Odinforce upon his death.[8] Items Gungnir Destroyer Destroyer Armor Prototype Gun Trivia In the non-canon video game Thor God of Thunder, Odin used Odinforce to revive Sif.[9] Gallery References ↑ Thor junior novelization ↑ Thor The Dark World ↑ Thor ↑ The Avengers Prelude Fury's Big Week ↑ The Avengers ↑ Agents of Beginning of the End ↑ Agents of Who You Really Are ↑ Thor Ragnarok ↑ Thor God of Thunder

Pour trouver le trĂ©sor de l’Île de la CrĂ©ation dans Dieu de la guerre, les joueurs doivent utiliser les indices fournis sur la carte au trĂ©sor pour se rendre Ă  Buri’s Storeroom, une Ăźle situĂ©e sur la rive est du lac des Neuf, Ă  une courte distance au nord des falaises du corbeau. Les joueurs peuvent accĂ©der facilement Ă  cet emplacement en utilisant la passerelle mystique Volunder Mines s’ils l’ont dĂ©verrouillĂ©e. AprĂšs avoir utilisĂ© la passerelle mystique, les joueurs doivent se diriger vers le quai et ramer leur bateau vers le nord jusqu’à ce qu’ils atteignent la rĂ©serve de Buri. La premiĂšre fois que les joueurs arrivent sur l’üle, ils devront faire face Ă  plusieurs Dieu de la guerre ennemis. Depuis Buri’s Storeroom, les joueurs doivent se diriger vers la porte sur la gauche prĂšs de quelques escaliers. Ils continueront tout droit jusqu’à ce qu’ils repĂšrent les grandes portes au loin. Vers la fin du chemin, les joueurs trouveront le trĂ©sor enfoui de l’Île de la CrĂ©ation. Le trĂ©sor est enterrĂ© vers l’arriĂšre de l’üle du cĂŽtĂ© le plus proche des doubles portes massives qui mĂšnent Ă  Veithurgard. Les joueurs doivent reconnaĂźtre cet emplacement Ă  partir de l’indice d’image sur leur carte au trĂ©sor. Pendant que vous ĂȘtes ici, cela peut Ă©galement valoir la peine de collecter les coffres lĂ©gendaires de l’üle. Le trĂ©sor de l’Île de la CrĂ©ation Ă  Dieu de la guerre contient un enchantement commun et un givre Ă©ternel, qui peuvent ĂȘtre utilisĂ©s pour amĂ©liorer les propriĂ©tĂ©s uniques de certains talismans. De plus, le trĂ©sor contient sept fragments d’écailles de serpent du monde, cinq piĂšces d’or d’Aegir et certains joueurs de Hacksilver peuvent utiliser pour amĂ©liorer leur Ă©quipement dans Dieu de la guerre. Dieu de la guerre est disponible sur PlayStation 4 et PlayStation 5 et sera disponible sur PC le 14 janvier 2022. La construction effrayante d’Elmo du joueur Minecraft est terrifiante JltJJ6S.
