Summary
Ares was a weak God, not fit for the Heir of Zeus. While Poseidon and Hades had Heirs who could encompass their domains and their realms, Heirs who were almost as powerful as themselves, Zeus had an Heir that could not draw from his domain and was nowhere near as powerful as him. He had an Heir that was just like the other Gods, not exceptional, and that burned him.
As Zeus' first Trueborn Son, Ares should've been powerful, like his father. But he wasn't. And no one knew why.
Ares the God of War born during a time of peace with only mortal wars to help him understand his domain. Mortal wars were not enough for the War God to truly understand his domain, to understand himself and to reach his potential.
During the Second Titanomachy, Ares finally witnessed a War of Immortals, and watching his daughters, Nike and Harmonia, face true death in the form of Iapetus in his True Form, finally understood the meaning of war.
Ares, the God of War finally understood every single part of his domain, and was reborn.
