Behold, Hera thought , casting her gaze around the magnificent Olympian Council Hall . The majestic and almighty gods and goddesses of Olympus . Seated on her left , Posidon let out a loud snore and promptly choked.
" SHUN THE NON- BELIEVERS !"- He roared , jerking awake
"Has obviously been sever transgression of our... what ?"- Zeus stopped mid-sentence, turning to stare at his brother with confudion
" Uh ... nothing ."- Posidon smiled sheepishly and sttled back down
Within a few moments, his eyes had drooped and his chin dropped onto his chest. Hera sighed . Opposite the rather ostensibly nodding -off the sea god , Apollo and Artemis appeared to be having an entire conversation across the Hall in stares .
Further down the semi-circular arc of thrones , Aphrodite was apathetically studying her nails . Next to Ares'empty seat , Hephaestus , at the end of the row , appeared to be in the process of piecing together a chariot frame , as though he was still in his forge , and nit in the Council Hall at the Olympus .
Dionysus wans't even conscious , his slumped form barely visible over Hermes , who was hovering several inches above his seat for no apparent reason . Demeter , it seemed , was at least making an effort to look like she was paying attention, though her bright green eyes had been glazed over for the last ten minutes of Zeus' monologue .
In fact , the only one in the room who seemed to be actually listeing to their King blather on and on about some swindling priest from Thebes who'd stolen a month's worth of offerings at one of the temples , was Hestia , seated in silence by the hearth that cracked away merrily to the side of the hall .
Yes , thought Hera , it really was just another ordinary morning on Olympus . Just another day listening to Zeus say- much-and-do-little about the usual trouble of the world below .
The same mortals in the same quardaries , the same hroes that needed assisting, the same enemies that neeed vanquishing , the same mosnters that needed slaying .
Tartarus , I'm bored , Hera thought with herself . I wish somehing interesting would heppen , just once . Suddenly , Hermes shout up waving his caduceus . Zeus broke off mid-sentence and stared.
" I'm sorry to interrupt , Lord Zeus , but I'vejust sensed Lady Athena and Lord Ares passing through the gates ..."- Hermes
" That's all very well and good , but you didn't have to interrupt just to tell us that . "- Zeus cut in irritation
" But ... they're not alone . Lord Hades , lady Persephone ... and the Moirae ... were with them "- Hermes'youthful face carried a mixture of confusion and concern
At that , every one of the Olympians seemed to snap out of their stupor. Even Dionysus was roused, massaging the side of his head and subbing his eyes groggily. A wave of murmurs rose through the room .
" The Fates ?"- HEra asked sharply
" What is Lord Hades doing here at this time of the year ? Spring isn't until tree weel away ...surely he can'r be bringing Persephone to us so early ? Unless something's wrong ? Or did Athena and Ares offend him somehow ?"- Demeter sat up , a quave in her voice as she spoke her daughter's names
" And the Moirae ?"- Hera asked again
" The Fates never leave their abode ... unless it's a matter of ..."- Zeus began
