After getting back to Asgard with the corpse of Priapus in my hands, I went straight to Odín for many reasons, for one I was kinda ashamed to face Hestia right now, I didn't want to face her possible disappointment, and second I wanted the Norse King to help me create my realm right away.
Odín like I had anticipated immediately started to help me with the process of sacrificing the god to create the safe haven for the children's of the gods who had joined my cause, his vast experience on the subject was crucial, for only him knew how to work such a spell, after all, he used with Ymir.
The process in theory was relatively simple, what made it hard was the creative aspects of it, like... what would be inside the realm? what kind of rules would this realm would have to abide in terms of physics? every little detail was important and it was up to me to make sure everything worked, Odín himself said this part of the process was crucial, for if I forgot even the smallest detail, like adding oxygen to the realm it would fuck the entire thing up.
Fortunately for me, I had a professional in this subject helping me create the realm, my template a healthy forest with lots and lots of animals and fruits, I mean... nothing like a healthy forest to say it's a healthy environment, and anything extra like the housing and other stuff would be easily added with Magic, I was a God, after all, and creating things out thin air was quite easy.
So I had to ask myself in the process, what was a priority when hosting mortals? right way the first thing it came to mind was water, drinkable water at that, then food, but that wasn't all, humans needed more than that, they needed good weather, not too cold or they would die, not too hot or they would die, also they needed a source of food, or they would die.... hmmm starting to see a pattern there.... anyway... with those parameters in head, I started to mold my pocket realm with the guiding hand of Odín helping me in every step of the process.
Remarkably, once you had the parameters set they rest worked was pretty much on auto pilot, and in less than ten hours I had my own pocket dimension, eat a dick Obito!
My personal dimension came out... well... perfect, I kinda expect this to not work out as intended but surprisingly it did, the forest I had created with the essence of Priapus was big enough to host up one hundred thousand humans or demigods, and had all the necessary things a mortal being could possibly need for survival, from breathable air to internet connection.
I... I... I added that last thing during the last second, I mean.... a forest is good and all... but no entertainment?! I mean, I will be hosting hundreds if not thousands of young teenagers... god that sounds bad. Anyway, I will have lots of kids with nothing bu the sound of nature to entertain themselves?! Yeah, I might as well kill them, a bit harsh but I'm sure most get the sentiment.
Besides, that way they can kinda forget I'm about to go to war with Erectus I mean... Zeus, and before anyone asks, but Adam... internet alone doesn't work, you nee— I know I need electricity, and stuff to use that electricity like computers and phones, and to answer that, bitch did you forget I am a god! I can create hundreds of consoles and TVs that have no need for cables, and would use the global wifi of my world, yes, the internet connection is global.
"I am impressed you added global wifi at the end of the process," Odín chuckled, "What is the password though?" He asked, pulling a smartphone of his pockets.
"Zeusitsabitch23-," I replied.
"All caps? Or just the first letter?" Odin asked.
"Just the first letter," I smiled.
"Wow, one thousand Terabits a second," Odín whistled, "Thor will definitely move here,"
"I am a fair god, in my rule there will be no lag, no loading times, and everyone shall refer to Annabeth and Pennybeth!" I declared comically.
"As you wish," Odín laughed.

[Hestia POV]
I was still trying to process what the Succubi had tell me that day, that Adam loved me... it was such a foreign concept for me, after all, love of that kind only brought suffering to both parties involved, I had seen not only my sisters but my mother suffer at the hands of love, Zeus with his infidelities, Kronos with his paranoia, Poseidon with his wrath...
But would Adam do the same, would Adam hurt those he claim to love like everyone I had seen before him? I just couldn't picture him doing such a thing, his feelings were unchanging, unmoving...
But even then, it was best if things were kept the way they were right now, Adam would eventually find someone else to love.
"Is that jealousy I feel coming off of you?" Honey giggled as she entered my room, "Look, I can't assume to understand your fears, but if you have to shut the poor man down, do it with care... he really loves you, I know you have some pass scars.... that will probably never heal, but Adam is not to blame for them... he is sweet, honest and a bit childish at times... at all times, but he is always there for you when you need him..."
"I know," I smiled, Adam was that and more, much more.
"But you still won't give him a chance," Honey frowned.
"I... I have seen what love makes of others," I sighed, "I don't want to suffer, I don't..."
"Adam... making you suffer," Honey snorted, "If there is one person that would move heaven and earth for you is him, what you have in him it's what many would wish to have... love of the purest kind... he didn't fell head over heels for you... because of your body, or your position... or your virginal status, he fell for you because... well, it's you..."
"I don't mean to sound offensive, but..." I sighed, "But how can you know... you barely know him,"
"Every time he speaks of you, his eyes... change... it's like as if for a moment... he forgets all the shit the world has thrown at him..." Honey smiled and for some reason it made me unimaginably happy to know that, "I knew he was different to most men when I saw his emotions for you..."
"So it is true," That voice... Athena?! "I had a feeling the kid had feelings for you, but this confirms it,"
"Two virgins and a slut," Honey snorted, "What an odd group we have here,"
"I think you should give this a second thought," Athena stated much to my surprise and Honey's surprise, "If everything goes well, he will rule over the gods in Olympus, and what best to keep him in check than a queen of pure heart, that is... if you love him like he loves you otherwise this conversation is pointless,"
"I think it's best we leave this conversation like this," I sighed, loving him or not... I wasn't ready to make such a decision.
"Understandable," Athena nodded, "I suppose as long as we keep him close to you, he won't become a monster",
