# Chapter 117
Hygieia paid a visit to Ares' celestial palace, accompanied by a stranger. He was a very handsome young man who appeared to be about twenty years old if he were human, but for some reason had completely gray hair. This man was none other than Asclepius, the son of Apollo and father of Hygieia.
The reason for his prematurely gray hair was this: Asclepius was originally born as a human. He boasted the most outstanding medical skills and treated hundreds and thousands of people who sought him out after hearing about his expertise.
However, his medical technique was so great that he could even bring the dead back to life. When humans, born from the fingertips of Moirai, the goddess of fate, reached the end of their designated lifespan, they were fated to go down to Hades' underworld. Therefore, bringing them back to life violated the world's discipline entirely.
