Zeus and Poseidon knew that the key to their success lay in manipulating the perceptions of the gods. They called for a council, gathering the pantheon to discuss the perceived threat posed by Hades. The atmosphere crackled with tension as Zeus, with carefully chosen words, stoked the flames of doubt.

He presented visions and prophecies, skillfully crafted by Poseidon's illusions, that painted Hades as a malevolent force plotting the downfall of Olympus. The gods' minds were ensnared, their insecurities exploited. They saw Hades amassing an army, conspiring to overthrow the rightful order of the gods.

The gods, caught in a web of deception, reluctantly agreed to strip Hades of his power and exile him to the realm of mortals.
