Third person POV

Tartarus was both a primordial deity that existed before the Olympians, as well as a name to describe a region of the Underworld. As a god, he was third in rank after Chaos and Gaea, preceding Eros.

As a place, it was far below than where Hades resided and it was used as the most horrible prison. Some accounts say that the distance between Tartarus and Hades was the same as between the earth and the heaven.

Although the kingdom of Hades was the place of the dead, Tartarus was where ferocious monsters and horrible criminals were banished, or where the gods imprisoned their rivals after a war.

The three judges of the Underworld, Rhadamanthus, Aeacus and Minos, decided who would go to the realm of Hades and who would be banished to Tartarus.

Moreover, Cronus, the king of the Titans, imprisoned the Cyclopes and the Hecatonchires in Tartarus, but Zeus released them in order to help him defeat the Titans. When the Titanomachy ended in favour of the Olympians, Zeus banished many of the Titans to Tartarus.

Cronos, was the leader and youngest of the first generation of Titans, the divine descendants of Uranus, the sky, and Gaia, the earth. He overthrew his father and ruled during the mythological Golden Age, until he was overthrown by his own son Zeus and imprisoned in Tartarus.

Priamos and stheno were now trying to figure out an idea to get into the underworld. It surprised stheno that she got over her sisters death so quickly, he thought she would be lashing out with rage and sadness.

I guess she's stronger than she looks. They were next to a waterfall a little ways away from her house. He has his blindfold on and his hair put up into a ponytail by stheno. Even with his hair up it still reached to his lower back.

"So how exactly do people get into the underworld" priamos asked her. "They die" she said simply. He looked at her weirdly. "So what your saying, is that we have to die to get into the underworld" he worried.

She laughed and shook her head. "All we need to do is piss hades off and he'll come to us" she explained. "So how exactly to we piss him off" he asked suspiciously. "Break something that's his I guess" he offered.

"No dipshit"

He glared at her for the bothering nickname. He was happy that he didn't smell like odor anymore. He had tooken a shower and borrowed some clothes frown stheno, it was just some skinny jeans and a cropped shirt.

He really disliked it, he couldn't wait to get his old clothes back. "We break into his library" she said snapping him out of his own thoughts. "What" he asked. "He owns a library in Olympus, myth says he treasures it, let's break in" she explained.

The idea was crazy, but he had to admit it might work. It's not like it was the most dumbest idea on the planet. So he nodded and agreed to go with her plan, it was the only plan they had.

Zeus had just witnessed Aphrodite turn to stone right before his eyes. He was always known to keep his cool at times like this, he would never let people get to him. Yet he didn't know why he was burning with rage right now.

He stood up angrily and pointed to the guards in the room. "All of you search the castle, every inch of it" his voice was calm but on the inside he was burning Witt rage, he didn't know how or why, but he wanted him dead.

Athena got up from her throne and stood in front of Athens's stone self. She was standing upright, it was like she was about to attack someone, most likely priamos. She was going to stop him but ended up getting stopped herself.

They had to keep her somewhere safe, at least until they can find away to break the curse, which was impossible. If she breaks she's dead end of story. They couldn't afford to lose a god in this era, yea they would reincarnate but that would be in a thousand years.

Medusa's descendant would already be ruling Olympus, it made him sick just thinking about it. He got down from his throne to stand in the middle of the room. He knelt down and held the left over chains in his hand.

He had to go to someone that he never wanted any recollection with ever again. It was bad but he didn't have time to be prideful right now, he needed to kill them god damned kid.

He stood up straight and faced his fellow gods. "Be ready and get more guards" he suddenly ordered. His ego was being pained by even thinking about asking this man for help. "We're going to the underworld" he suddenly stated.

They were going to hades
