The Evermore Grimoire: Palaces
(Mount) Olympus was the home of the Gods who dwelt in fabulous palaces of marble and gold in Greek mythology. In Homer’s Iliad it was essentially an acropolis (a fortified hill-top palace) located just below the peaks of Mount Olympus. The golden gates of the heavenly fortress were guarded by the three Horai and it contained the palace of Zeus (king of the gods), lesser palaces for the other gods, and stables for the immortal horses. The buildings were built of stone with bronze foundations and were surrounded by cloistered courtyards with golden pavements. The main structure was the palace of Zeus. The Olympian acropolis lay above the clouds and the paths of the stars, near the apex of the solid bronze-dome of the sky. It existed in the zone known as the Aither the bright upper-air of heaven or shining blue of the sky.

Prompt #214
“You don’t seem to understand, so let me reiterate. This war is not over when you want it to be. You decide to stop fighting and we all die. Do you hear me?”
Hero rolled their eyes. “So a few lives are lost. So the castle gets taken over. So, so, so.” They admired their nails. “At least I’ll be left alive.”
“What makes you think you’ll be kept alive against the rest of us?”
“Because,” Hero said, “Villain loves me too much to kill me.”
