The island of Arcadia is the home of many daughters of Oceanus, the goddess of oaths Styx, the queen of the sea Amphitrite, the goddess of wisdom Metis and the former Zeus who was just captured by Adros. The lover, the beautiful goddess Eurynome, etc. all grew up here.
When Artemis was a child, there was a time when she fought for the seas, and she also lived on this beautiful island at that time.
Now Artemis has returned to visit her hometown. As half the owner of the sea, Queen Amphitrite specially held a banquet on this island to entertain this extremely talented young goddess. To this end, Amphitrite went to Dionysus, the god of wine, to exchange a large amount of wine.
Although Poseidon, King of the Sea, was dissatisfied that his wife was not hosting a banquet in their country, the beautiful Atlantis, and came to this place, he still came to keep her company. After all, the visiting goddess was an Olympian god, and she and her brother were both powerful warriors.
Ever since the marriage of the ocean goddess Thetis to the human demigod Peleus, there has been no war on the ocean, and Poseidon rarely had time to relax, so he feasted on Arcadia Island for a few days.
He didn't know that the divine attendant of the earth mother Gaia, the golden human responsible for taking care of their son Antaeus, had been waiting in his palace of Neptune for several days.
Ever since he knew that Antaeus had made up his mind to kill Hercules, this divine attendant of the Earth Mother felt that something might happen and came to report to Poseidon early. However, Poseidon was not in his palace at this time, and he could not be notified even through the temple.
However, the gods from the Neptune Palace who came to Arcadia Island to deliver the news were blocked by the gods of Amphitrite and Artemis and could not deliver the news.
It wasn't until Antaeus died that Poseidon sensed and reacted.
When he stepped out, he got the news. The sound of rage spread across the ocean and the earth. The son he had placed high hopes on died like this.
Poseidon looked coldly at the host of the banquet, his wife Amphitrite. Although he didn't know what role she played in it, he must have blocked the news from himself and kept it from him. It was definitely her fault.
Amphitrite also looked back at Poseidon with a cold look. Ever since she knew that he had a child with the earth mother Gaia, Amphitrite had wanted this day. Now Artemis just happened to come to her. She could push the boat along without her having to do anything. It was just a matter of pestering Poseidon for a few days, so why not do it
······
In Libya by the sea, Poseidon looked at Hercules below, receiving cheers and praises from many of his subordinates. But his son, Antaeus, who was equally talented, became his foil on his heroic journey.
The king of the ocean was furious. He had spent so much time and effort trying to get Gaia to agree to give birth to his child, but he didn't expect to die like this.
You know, Poseidon had high hopes for this extremely powerful child, it could even be said to be ambition. He hoped that this child could inherit the authority of both the ocean and the earth, surpassing all the sons of Zeus.
However, all ambitions were now in vain. Poseidon took heart, raised his trident, and was about to throw it at Hercules below.
"Poseidon, what do you want to do?"
Just as Poseidon was about to take action, Hercules' father, the god-king Zeus, arrived. Behind him, there are the gods of Olympus.
"You know, he is not only my child, but also the son of Gaia."
Poseidon looked at Zeus and the goddesses behind him, and subconsciously thought that they were all here to stop him. He didn't know that his brother, the God King Zeus, had just experienced an extremely exciting story.
Zeus snorted: "So what? Ouranos is her child, Cronus is her child, even the giant demon Typhon is her child. How can our grandmother care about children?" God?"
Poseidon glanced at Zeus lightly, knowing that there was no chance to attack Heracles at this time, so he put away his weapons.
He angrily drove the carriage back to his territory. Wherever he passed, huge waves continued to rise, as if to declare the mood of the king of the sea.
The gods looked at Poseidon's leaving figure, and for a moment, they didn't know what to say. They could not persuade Poseidon to let it go, nor could they persuade Zeus to make Heracles pay the price, so they could only deal with it silently.
Zeus looked at the messenger Hermes who rushed over in a hurry, and was a little dissatisfied. He handed over the task of caring for Hercules to his always obedient son, but he didn't expect that something happened.
Hermes lowered his head and explained to Zeus the reason. Before Hercules set foot in Libya, a large group of sea monsters besieged these human heroes.
Hermes was worried that something would happen, so he personally took action to fight these sea monsters, but was led into a mysterious sea area by them. It took him several days to escape, and then something happened.
"There must be someone else's conspiracy here, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence."
Athena, the goddess of wisdom, reacted immediately after hearing this.
Zeus looked at his smart beloved daughter and nodded slowly. He also understood that someone was deliberately trying to sow discord between him and Poseidon. However, he was not worried. He believed that given Poseidon's situation, he was destined not to fall out with him, nor would he dare to fall out with him.
As for him having a history with Gaia, the Earth Mother, that is nothing. There are many gods who have had past events with Gaia, the Earth Mother. Even Zeus himself, if he hadn't changed his mind drastically after becoming the King of Gods and became unwilling to have a relationship with gods more powerful than him, he probably would not have given up having sex with his beautiful and kind grandmother.
"Athena, next you and Hermes will look after Hercules and make sure nothing like this happens again."
Zeus sent his smartest daughter, and he felt that there seemed to be a black hand targeting him and his divine court. And he will probably have to spend a lot of energy to appease his wife, the Queen Hera, and other gods.
This time, Zeus felt that he had been humiliated and humiliated, actually having sex with a ewe. Alas, when thinking of this ewe, Zeus felt a little heartache again. What a cute and delicate sheep.
In addition, the god who made him lose face, the Lord of the Stars, must receive his own revenge. Zeus was silently planning in his heart, waiting to find out what happened to Heracles, he would have to settle this account carefully. It's just that he doesn't know what role his beloved daughter Artemis plays in this, and he is extremely conflicted.
Adros didn't know what Zeus was thinking, and even if he knew it, he wouldn't care. He couldn't let too many people know about the vest of the Lord of the Stars. On the other hand, the vest of human preacher Iathion only needs to be tried one last time, and then it can be thrown away.
