Aphrodite's HeartIsAnAwesomePower spiel in Lost Hero got me thinking: what if her children were able to manipulate people through the power of love to make up for most of them not really participating in battle games and such? We already saw how Drew used her potential- what if other Aphrodite children were able to do things such as pretending to like someone just to get something, or could read emotions as easily as...I dunno, [[{{LightNovel/Durarara}} Izaya]]? Then they would REALLY be a force to reckon with...

You remember Cold War? And fact that even now Russia and America aren't best friends. Greek Gods are said to reside in center of Western Civilization repeatedly. They came in America probably some time after they got independence. Reason for enmity between 2 countries is because Slavic Gods and Greek Gods fight. Slavic pantheon moves with flame of Slavic civilization. Now,because of all ruckus they're waking up. They're also angry because of fight with Mat Zemlya-that is Gaia-and because she was immediately proclaimed enemy and they didn't try to negotiate-fact that will make Slavic gods alien to demigods. They will strike shaky treaty with them-which will be broken when certain demigods cross borders to one of slavic countries and start harassing [[Literature/BabaYaga one small innocent]] [[NeverMessWithGranny grandma]]. Angry Baba Yaga will remind everybody that she is goddess. Then, she''ll do 5 things:

What's more, neither Athena, Artemis, Hermes, Dionysus or Apollo have any legitimate claim to the throne because the elder gods (Hera, Demeter, Hades, Poseidon, Hestia) would never recognize one of Zeus' bastards as rightful ruler. Hera wields more power over Olympus than any other god save her husband and she would naturally hold power over the chain of succession. Ares and Hesphestus would vote with their mama against their half-siblings and the Olympian base would be broken while Gaia scales Olympus like in VideoGame/GodOfWar.

It's pretty clear now that Percy will stay at Camp Jupiter and Jason will stay at Camp Half-Blood. Annabeth will join the 5th Cohort with Percy. And the next series (likely a mega-crossover with TheKaneChronicles and the upcoming Myth/NorseMythology series) will begin with Percy and Annabeth in college at New Rome.

* What about AlexanderTheGreat? Sure he wasn't strictly "Greek"(he was Macedonian, but then Minos is from Crete) but let's face it, who better to lead the final battle than one of the(if not the)greatest generals in the history of the world, and he wasn't any slouch as a warrior on a personal level either. If Washington and Hitler were both demi-gods, he sure as hell is. Unless of course he's like Odysseus and is just that badass.

*Other gods still active:
**The gods of Carthage retired to North Africa (or possibly part of the US with a large Lebanese/Maghrebi population), and just as Rhea Silvia has become Audrey Hepburn, they resemble the cast of ''Casablanca''.
** The Mesoamerican gods still exist but largely don't leave Central America, though they can be seen in Southern California and the environs. Alternately, they're still more aspects of the Olympians (Juno/Hera mentions Aztecs when talking to Leo as if she knew them personally, and they had the Roman imperialism bit down)

* Unfortunately, it seems that Fate is a force Apollo interacts with rather than something the Greek gods have it in their domain to control. The most direct representatives of Fate we've seen are the Norns, who are aligned with the Norse.

The Doors of Death are at the literal Heart of Tartarus. If the heart was stabbed or blown up, the Pit would collapse and monsters would stop being reborn.

The Doors of Death are at the literal Heart of Tartarus. If the heart was stabbed or blown up, the Pit would collapse and monsters would stop being reborn. This would leave almost no remaining threats as the Titans, the Giants and practically all of the remaining primordial gods would be killed in the collapse.
