Sunset On Mt. Olympus

The Gods of Olympus adhered to a series of routines in order to fool the humans into believing there was a giant glowing orb that circled the Earth. These ruses included a great deal of fabric and a bit of fire, as well as a sizable herd of flying horses.

The humans named the phenomenon Apollo, and believed him a son of Zeus. It pleased the Gods immensely that they had fooled the humans into believing in a false God. It truly seemed their power was limitless.

When Hermes questioned why such tricks were necessary, Zeus banished him to Hades.
