KEEPSAKE ART!! KEEPSAKE ART!!
I've been waiting for this in particular and there are some very interesting looking keepsakes so let's talk about them!
Hecate's is just the sigil we can find on and around characters allied with the Unseen (Nemesis) or witches (Medea, Circe). So I'm going to assume the sigil itself is called the Silver Wheel.
I had to research what Odysseus' is supposed to be (because I haven't ever read the Odyssey) but it turns out this is a type of game of chance called knucklebones? Interestingly it's something taught by Palamedes to his countrymen during the Trojan War, and Palamedes was the guy whose trickery forced Odysseus into the War and Od never forgave him (in most accounts, Od also killed him later). Oof.
I've wanted to make keepsake-based art for these, but since I don't know what they're supposed to be I was forced to speculate. But I don't need to any longer!
Nem's keepsake is... a literal evil eye charm. I don't know what I expected really! But it has a thread on it, so maybe Nem wears it on her armor? Hung on the back of her cuirass perhaps, to ward off malice directed against her back as she leaves after dealing retribution?
The skull on Moros' keepsake looks adorably polite (just like the man). I like that the 'pin' part is similar to one of those tiny sewing pins. It has the color of the Fates on it; did they give this to him? From its appearance, it's likely the Pin was supposed to be worn to fasten his sash.
Hermes' keepsake is a vial of mercury. Also known as quicksilver. 100/100 pun game and mythological reference here, Supergiant.
Artemis' keepsake is likely a reference to the sacred hind of Artemis, which is said to have golden antlers (likely represented by the golden accessories on the antlers).
Heracles' keepsake is from the name itself without a doubt a fang from the Nemean Lion, whose pelt he is also wearing on his person (my favorite iteration of this trope by the way).
Medea's is almost definitely the Golden Fleece, but looked like that either due to her curses, vengeance, or she just decided to singe it out of spite, as the in-game name is blackened fleece. The Medea we meet in game is likely her after enacting vengeance against Jason (can we see what's left of him? Or his shade? Please?).
I did not expect Circe's to be an ADORABLE pink crystal piggie. I wonder if SGG will discuss Circe's tendency to curse people into animals, judging by the pink sheep pigs on her island... and the entire Odysseus situation, because hoo boy.
Icarus' keepsake is a slightly modified Daedalus hammer. It doesn't look that much different, maybe to signify his doubt of his own skills and his belief that he will never escape his father's legacy and shadow? He's not yet found the courage to come into his own.

there are many. many things. i could say about heracles kindness. but its also the kind of thing that would get him to kill me so maybe i shall keep that to myself for now.
but yeah you certainly are zeus' son alright.
#hades 2#(COUGH COUGH) JACKASS (COUGH COUGH)#i ran into him just after hera which is something that will amuse me for basically forever. hera did you know he's over here.#do you think if i yelled loud enough i could start beef. it could be really funny. you know it would. cmoooon#maybe its bc i'm black but i REALLY hate being called /the help/ get bent heracles#but i am delighted he's heracles and not hercules. sometimes people forget. its nice.

«His third labour was different from the first two as instead of killing, he'd only need to catch. His prey was the Golden Hind of Artemis, her sacred animal. He chased it for a year and successfully wore it out. While on his way to present the hind to Eurystheus, Artemis intervened, but as soon as he explained the situation, he was free to go»

RoR Incorrect quotes#160 BAGELS!!!
Imagen before the fight that was supposed to be Shiva bs Adam...turned into Zeus vs Adam...someone got to Zeus first and...killed him, So now Hera and the rest of the Greek pantheon along with Adam's family after being suspected of...murdering him are brought to tell the news
Hermes: Zeus is dead...
Adam: Say what now?...
Hera: Wait, my husband is dead?*Frowns and raises her brow*
Hermes: Yeah, Uncle Hades's office just notified us...
Y/n*Raises hand*...Um
The Gods look at the secret member...or rather recently integrated member of Adam's family, not sure what to expect from such a small frail-looking human...Hera allowing you to speak, wanting to hear your input curious about what you have in mind
Y/n: No way that's true, As Zeus says when he sees deodorant,
"I'm not buying it"
Hera*Letting out involuntary laugh*...HA-HA!-*Coughs seeing her son and others looking at her*
After Everyone saw the king of gods in his special tomb
Y/n*Parading through the halls with a bag of pastries and bagels* Ding, dong, the king of sexual assault is dead. Bagels for everyone!
Cain: So I guess you believe it now?
Y/n: Yep, Wanna see the selfies I took?
Cain: Actually, yes~
Y/n: I'll share the album with you!~
Heracles*Coming to you and your brother Cain, tearful* Oh, my God!, I just heard about Father! he was so young!
Y/n: For a redwood tree...Uh, I don't understand, what's going on, Why are you crying?
Heracles: Somebody is dead, I feel sad
Y/n: Well, I know just the thing to cheer you up! ZEUS is dead! Bagel!Bagel!Bagel!*Throwing bagels to every person, who happily catches them and eats it...hell some gods passed by you are also happy*
Turns out...You were selected instead of Hera or any of his children to give a speech to speak highly of him...You were of course brought by Heracles to the Greek pantheon room...
Heracles: All you have to do is say a few nice comments during the memorial!
Y/n: As a Celestial said when he tried to sneak past the gates into the afterlife:
"It ain't happening, honey."
Hera*Holding her sides letting out the biggest laugh in the room*HAHAHAHA!
RIP captain dad holt/Andre Keith Braugher...you will be missed...
