The eldest daughter of Titans Cronus and Rhea, Vesta ("Hestia" in Greek) is the goddess of hearth and home. Vesta along with her siblings were imprisoned in the netherworld known as Tartarus by their father, fearing one of his children would dethrone him in the same manner that he had dethroned his father, Ouranos. In modern times, Vesta was present in Olympus when the Asgardian Thor approached Zeus, requesting a portion of the Olympians' power as a means of reviving the Asgardians that were slain by the Celestials. Vesta was present when Athena claimed the throne of Olympus but because she had no desire to rule over the Olympians, she did not pose any opposition to Athena's decision.
