## Locations on Olympus

### Zeus and Hera's Home

Zeus and Hera live in a large mansion on Olympus, found at 467 Gigantomachy Crescent. Every year, they throw a large party at their home, known as a Panathenaea. Hades and Persephone were attending the 1500th Panathenaea separately when Hades first saw and fell in love with Persephone.

The home has a lot of large, open rooms, columns, staircases, and statues. At the top of the grand staircase at the entrance, there is a large family photo of the three Kings accompanied by their Queens. In another room, there is a potrait of Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades in their kingly-garb. Their home also has a hallway with large potraits of Hermes and Apollo, and presumbly potraits of the other 12 Olympians lining the hall as well. Behind the home, there is a large garden. The front door of the house is glass with golden handles.

Main rooms in the house include: the main entrance, featuring the grand staircase; Hera's sitting room, where she talks to Persephone; and Hera's large, walk-in closet/boudoir. Notably, Zeus and Hera have separate bedrooms: Hera's bedroom is more ornate, with a fancy, traditional French-style headboard over her bed. In contrast, Zeus' bedroom has a more modern style overall, with an upholstered panel headboard over his bed.

### Artemis and Persephone's Home

Artemis lives in a modern home in a neighbourhood on Olympus. It is a large two-story house with a parking area underneath. Many of the walls are windows. Artemis invited Persephone to move in with her after Demeter refused to allow Persephone to move to Olympus for college. They each have their own bedroom and bathroom. Other rooms in the house include the living room, where guests are entertained, and a large kitchen with an island. In the yard, Artemis has set up targets for archery practice. Artemis has a cat, Retsina, who also lives in the house.

Men are forbidden in the house because Artemis and Persephone are virgin goddesses, members of The Goddesses of Eternal Maidenhood. However, Artemis allows men inside when it suits her. Men that have been allowed inside are Apollo, Hermes, Eros and Hades (reluctantly).

They keep a key under the doormat, which Eros used to get in when he sensed that Persephone was about to admit her crush on Hades.

#### Artemis' room

Artemis' room has a deer head hanging near the head of her bed, to represent herself as Goddess of the Hunt. Artemis has a lot of fancy dresses in her closet.

#### Persephone's room

Persephone's room has a large bed pushed against a corner, with bookshelves on the walls at both corners surrounding her bed. She still has some boxes that need to be unpacked due to her recent move. She has a small desk on one side of her bed.

### Zeus' Office

Zeus has an office on Olympus. In Zeus' main office room, his desk contains his laptop, a phone, and a small picture frame with a photo of him and Hera inside. Behind his desk is a poster of thunder, a parody of office motivational posters. There is a waiting room somewhere outside the office.

Thetis (Zeus' Personal Assistant and "secret" lover) has a desk with a computer outside of Zeus' office, separated by glass doors. She uses her computer to send Minthe the Weekly Nark article about Persephone and Hades.

There is a large conference room somewhere in the building where Zeus holds meetings. Hades notes that he hates going there.

### Hera's Office

Hera has her own office on Olympus where she performs her duties as a mortal matchmaker. According to her nymph employees, Hera has not come into the office recently, and it is unusual to see her.

### The Mall

Eros takes Persephone to the mall to shop when he learns that she doesn't have any Olympus-appropriate clothing. Artemis tags along. Eros buys her clothes here. The mall is also where Persephone and Apollo meet when he waits for them in the parking lot.

### Strip Club

Olympus has a strip club where Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades attend family brunch, even though they've been kicked out before- Zeus for butt pinching, Hades for poaching their best dancer by offering her a job, and Poseidon for breaking the mermaid tank. However, Hades pays 2000 drachma to reimburse them for the mermaid tank, so the brothers are allowed to stay for brunch. The club has several tables, large tanks with mermaids in them, and several podiums and poles for the dancers employed there.

It is here that Zeus and Poseidon rag on Hades for his crush on Persephone, and where Hera disguises herself as one of the nymph dancers to eavesdrop on the brothers.

### The University

Persephone, Tori, and other students attend university on Olympus. It is unknown if this is the only university on Olympus, but it appears to be the most prestigious. On the first day of attending her classes, Persephone meets Tori and another classmate, who ask if she is the one in the Weekly Nark article. The university has a number of different nymphs and other species both attending as students and teaching classes. It appears rare for a God or Goddess to attend, as Persephone's classmates are awed by the reveal that she is a Goddess.

Tori is the roommate of Alex, who took the picture and wrote the article in the Weekly Nark about Persephone & Hades. It is unknown if Alex also attends the same university.

### Park

After Cerberus rescues Persephone from Apollo's car, Cerberus and Persephone spend the afternoon together eating lunch, napping, studying, and looking at laptop ads under a tree. The tree appears to be on the outskirts of Olympus, as the city skyline can be seen in the distance and Helios can be seen walking past at one point.

### Calliope's Music Store

The muse Calliope has a music store on Olympus, where she sells and repairs musical instruments. Apollo visits the store to get his lyre repaired.

### Hestia's Home

Hestia lives in a large, modern home. She hosts the meetings for The Goddesses of Eternal Maidenhood here. This is where Persephone was offered her scholarship and where Artemis offered to allow Persephone to stay with her.
