New Olympus
Gods of Olympus The deities of Greek myth are among the mightiest beings in the whole of creation. They are the children of the Titans and the grandchildren of Gaea and Uranus, the earth and sky. Mostly, these gods are generous, but they only became so after Zeus, son of Cronus, deposed his Titan father from Mount Olympus and allowed his brothers and sisters and children to rule the heavens and the Earth and guide the destiny of mankind. The gods' dominion over humanity lasted for thousands of years. In time, however, their influence began to wane, and so they created the Amazons to lead mankind in the ways of virtue and keep the gods forever in people's hearts. For millennia, the Olympians have been content to preside over mankind. They sometimes enjoy meddling in human affairs, but in general they seek to guide humanity to greatness. Ares, Zeus's son and the God of War, has always argued that man should be conquered -- and who better than him to do it! The First Olympus Although there are far higher mountains on Earth, the mythical importance of Mount Olympus in northern Greece belies its humble elevation 9,570 feet (2,917 meters). Since time immemorial, Mount Olympus was the home of the gods.
