After my talk with Odin, I decided it was in my best interest to go to Svartalfheim, the world of the dwarves, to commission my godly symbol of power. I wanted a weapon capable of matching Zeus' master bolt, one that worked with my skill set.
According to Odin, Svartalfheim was like a massive forest with abnormally large trees, with all the planet being as green as physically possible, the dwarves apparently are very eco- friendly, doing their best to not mess the environment, and to that end, their living arrangements were usually symbiotic with their planet, with them living under the rocks, in caves, trees and in underground cities.
So gathering a few of my belongings, I embarked on my adventure to get a weapon worthy of my pranking godhood. Maybe a staff, that would be nice.
"Lead the way!" Thor barked with a smile, hammer on hand…. And a backpack on his back…
"Thor, I didn't expect to see you here," I chuckled, "What ya got there," I pointed to his Stars Wars backpack.
"What I will need for our journey!" Thor declared with a bright and quite contagious smile. How to tell him, I wanted to go alone… then again, if he went to Svartalfheim with me, I would be able to use his fame to get the dwarves to help me, after all, I didn't know if they would agree to make me a weapon.
"Fine… you can come," I chuckled, what that hell, sometimes it's best to have a travel buddy.
Thor snorted, "You say that as if you had another option,"
"Touché," I admitted, when Thor wanted something, he would get it one way or another.
"Don't worry, I know the dwarves, crazy parties they throw, I'm sure we will get you a wand or whatever you wizards use for combat," Thor chuckled, burping between sentences, this motherfucker was already drunk, it was right in the mothefuckering morning… oh for those that don't get it, a burping Thor is a drunk Thor.
"Alright, let's go and get me a weapon," I snorted.
"Fuck yeah!" Thor roared, tossing me a cold one. I will never understand how is that he always has cold beers with him… like at any time, Thor will have snacks and beers ready.
I rolled my eyes at him, "Sure, why not," I added opening the beer, as we walked to Heimdall to use the bifrost to travel to Svartalfheim.

Svartalfheim was breathtaking, the beautifully and inhumanly large trees ahead of me were never ending, looking like a field day of eco-friendly skyscrapers. The place had animals I had never seen which I suppose was normal considering it was another planet altogether, on the bottom of the trees the large veins of roots spread across the muddy ground, each root being as thick as a cow. With curiosity I stared at the trees in awe as I exploded the vast canopy with eyes. I continued to eye the woods as they extended deep into the nothingness as calming songs erupted from the nearby birds who had found their abode on the trees.
With a chuckle, I walked through the forest, bare foot, it kinda felt it was the norm to do so. And frankly I didn't regret it. The wetness of the dirt crushing under my toes was simple and yet fulfilling. The best part was the air which was humid and relaxing, it was invigorating.
"Are you done staring at that tree?" Thor snickered.
"I like nature ok? Sue me," I shot back playfully.
"Fine fine," Thor chuckled, as he opened another beer, "Let's go and meet the brothers, they are the best of the best," he smiled, grabbing me by the arm, dragging me across the forest.
"Remember me to never go on a hike with you," I chuckled, was it so bad I wanted to admire the view, I didn't get to see any of this in… Tartarus.
"Oh hiking, that sounds fun," Thor smirked, and I didn't know if he was being honest or messing with me… which honestly worries me a bit.

[Zeus POV]
I was sure Hestia and Adam would come back, it was a matter of time before, "My lord," someone said, interrupting my train of thought.
"Yes?" I asked, annoyed at his presence.
"A letter from Adam," The messenger said, handing me the letter.
~Dear Zeus… by the way the dear is not because I hold…. IN any type of high regard, is just how letters start… Anyway, Dear Zeus, I write this letter to inform you, Hestia and I reject your invitation back to Olympus, you really thought… pardoning us for crimes we didn't commit was… enough?! Hahahaha, god you are such a cockalorum, I know you don't know what that word means… so google it bitch.
Back to the subject at hand, about this pathetic offer… well, now that we rejected it… I have a few ideas about what you can do with it… if you want to know, just let me know and I'll be glad to help you… but let me give you a fair warning, all of those ideas require tons of lube, and your willingness to shove this offer up your ass repeatedly, with hate. Adam Aragon.
Seriously, was that goat milk you drank bad or something, forgiving us for crimes we didn't commit, I mean I knew you were stupid but this… this is too much~
"I. AM. GONNA. KILL. THAT. KID!!!!!!!!!." I bellowed in anger, breaking my throne in haft, he dared to throw my generosity back at me, and in the process insult me?!!!
"Zeus we need them!" Hera hissed, "Don't do something that will affect Olympus as a whole!"
"They want war! They will get it!" I pushed Hera to the side, if the kid wanted war, he would get it!
"He has all the right to be angry," Poseidon scoffed, "It's your fault for thinking he would come back begging you… we need all of Olympus together, you know the prophecy… so for once, don't let your anger cloud you!"
