Chapitre 52: Nacht
Staring at the black ceiling of his room that his uncle Poseidon had graciously bestowed upon him, he couldn't help but lament the dreadfully smell of fish that assaulted his nostrils, he didn't need to breath but he could still smell regardless. Using his hand, he gently touched the large scar that ran on his right side of his face. His right eyelid also happened to be closed as the eyes were no longer in its socket. Perhaps attacking Hephaestus was not a great idea, considering he lost an eye.
"nx!!!"
He clicked his tongue and kissed his own teeth as he was reminded once again about the Sheer difference in power between him and Hephaestus. He didn't accept Hephaestus as a king of Olympus, but unfortunately, everyone else didn't mind. They all seemed very eager to have gotten rid of Zeus, something that came as a shock, sure Zeus was a bit much to handle but he was their king, what happened to loyalty?They were all traitors. Nothing but scum who turned their back on the true king of Olympus.
"my lord Hermes, the king wishes to speak with you"
A young and beautiful sea nymph with pale skin, sea blue eyes and matching blue hair, had entered the room and informed Hermes of being summoned by Poseidon, incidentally there were no doors in any of the rooms aside from the room of the king.
"vey well"
He rolled out of the bed and landed on his feet and let the sea nymphs lead the way, he wonders if Poseidon finally decided to aid him in his endeavour to overthrow Hephaestus, the sea king has been Luke warm about the idea for 8 months, half of him believes Poseidon is afraid while the other half is tempted to believe he doesn't care about Zeus.
It took no more than 5 minutes before he arrived at his destination, another room with no door, the nymph gestured he enter and he did and was greeted by Poseido who was seated on sponge like chair coloured yellow with a bit of brown at it base. There was a row of beautiful sea Nymphs that stood by behind him, and in front of him was a table made from ice with some sea themed food and drinks on top of it and extra chair to the side.
"so have you decided yet?"
He asked, forgoing any politeness. It's been long since he's been here, and if Poseidon is too afraid to do anything, he goes somewhere else.
"Yes i have. However, we need allies. The two of us just can't compete against everyone on Olympus, as such, we need to bring them to our side"
"Is that why you brought me here? To strategize?"
"No, I brought you here to show off my collection of beautiful woman"
The two stared at each with Hermes, wondering if that was a sarcastic comment or a joke, but the lack of change in Poseidon's expression made him think he was serious.
"are you serious?"
"Two things can be true at the same time"
Was all the sea king said before gesturing Hermes to sit and discuss business.
"for starters, we need to find a few who also don't like Hephaestus as the king, people who were close to Zeus, like his enforcers and maybe Hera"
"Not Hera, she conspired to overthrow Zeus and was the reason that duel between them even happened, the enforcers might work, ever since Zeus died none of them have set foot on Olympus so I imagine they aren't thrilled with the change as well"
Hermes explained eliciting a thoughtful nod from Poseidon, he was correct, all the enforcers left Olympus once Zeus was declared dead and they haven't set foot there since so it's not completely unreasonable for Hermes to believe that it's because they didn't like the change in rulers, in fact that seemed to be the only possible theory.
"Okay, we'll go to Erebus to ask for their help. What about Apollo"
"He's been missing ever since last year, and for some reason, nobody has been able to find him, I believe it's possible he might be dead, Athena might have killed him"
"hm, we can actually use that, I'm sure we can use that to fuel Leto's hatred for Athena and have her join our side."
The relationship between Leto and Athena has been quite Rocky or rather Leto outright hates Athena, even as his mother and with her power that allows her to be able to find any child of hers no matter their location has been useless, this has led her into a deep depression with occasional and sudden attacks thrown at Athena and this has caused Athena to descend to the human world and personally look for Apollo.
"Anyone else you had in mind?"
"Hades won't Aid us, neither will Demeter, Hestia, Themis and Artemis, the only thing I can think of is asking for help from Erebus, maybe ask mother to join us in overthrowing the killer of one of her sons"
"Are you involving her would be wise? Even involving Erebus? I think rather than that. We need the residents of Olympus to turn against Hephaestus "
"that does seem like the better idea, we'll use that, first I'll go to Erebus to talk to the former enforcers, you'll have to find Apollo, likely won't accept Hephaestus as a king so it's he possible he'll join us."
The two continued to speak of this plan for a few minutes before they finished it up and Hermes went to look for Apollo Straight away while Poseidon decided to take his time with his task and fantasized about the idea of being king of two kingdoms and maybe three including the humans under his rule. Of course, he took it as a given that he'd be the one to overthrow Hephaestus and take his thrown rather than just being who assisted in the overthrowing.
...…
[Erebus]
There was ginormous castle built using a mixture obsidian and a bit of silver and some mithril for durability, the castle was much bigger than the royal a palace of Olympus and it stood afloat in the skies of Erebus, below it was wide circular Arena where it seemed various titans were currently battling, noted by the minor shockwaves and rumblings caused by the clash between two powerful beings.
The arena was at the center, with the castle being directly above it. The arena stood at the center of various other small mansion and castles belonging to other residents of Erebus.
The castle that stood afloat was one that belonged to Nyx, a primordial titan one of the first beings to ever exist in the world and the physical embodiment of the night, there was no queen in Erebus however it's residents considered her to be the leader and authority figure as such her family was very respected, however she herself didn't care.
Nyx was a beautiful goddess of a woman with hair as black as the night sky and eyes beautiful dark eyes that seemed to swirl like dark abyss, she had creamy chocolate coloured skin, she had large breast that fit her frame, she was slender and thick in all the necessary places. A beautiful woman admired by many in her realm, she was currently laying on a couch with her eyes closed but she wasn't asleep instead she was watching Her grand daughter Nike face of against one of her brothers, however someone else demanded her attention, she opened her eyes and looked at the Titaness that seemed to demand her Attention.
"Mother I demand you punish those stupid Olympians for what they did, we cannot let such dishonor stand"
Bia stated pleading to her mother's mother, ever since Zeus was killed, the spell he had put them under was completely broken and they found out that Zeus someone how had used Hypnos to convince them to join the side of the Olympians, it was more of him making sure they are loyal to him even after the war. Having found this out Bia felt greatly insulted, and she remembered her own words from before and how she was quite enamored with Zeus.
"What would be the point of that, dear? Zeus is already dead, if you want revenge punish Hypnos"
Nyx stated her voice smooth and sultry and a bit pleasant to hear. In her eyes Bia was quite cute when angered, she couldn't help but want to gush over it, even her children's were absolutely adorable however she kept that to herself she needed to maintain a respectable image.
"That coward is weak it won't satisfy me to punish him"
"So, you just want to fight?"
She asked with a smile, to her this whole situation was more like her child being angry because some other kids tricked her and now she came to vent her frustration about it, she found it to be cute.
"what? No that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying they tarnished our reputation by making it seem like we can he easily tricked that shouldn't be allowed"
She stomped her foot in righteous anger, eliciting a smile from Nyx. The young Titaness was so adorable.
"Alright how about we go to Olympus and discuss this with the current king I'm sure he'd be willing to compensate you"
"no we have to show them. They can't get away with this"
"Calm down dear, I'm sure Hephaestus would gladly offer compensation for the slight done against you even though it wasn't his own fault"
"It's not about compensation. It's about our honour they tarnished it"
"how about this? Go ask your siblings if they agree. If they do then I'll do as you say, how about that?"
Bia nodded to her suggestion and quickly exited the room, obviously Nyx wasn't about to just destroy Olympus over something as silly as this, it's not like any if them died and Zeus is already dead so what need is there in punish Olympus for his deeds when he isn't there.
"Although I suppose visiting wouldn't hurt hardly ever been there."
