Godslayer said he can't absorb the properties of the various potions ingredients.
But what if an enemy threw a potion at him?

The Fidelius, most likely, would only have the moderate effect of cutting off the logistic supplies - to use a metaphore - of Ares, it wouldn't kill him instantly as he would still have ample supplies of faith energy, temples, hymns (even hymns composed in the modern times and available on the internet), and so on. It's also possible he would be able feed passively on the energies of war and slauther "anonymously". The Theoi, especially Zeus, Apóllôn, Chronos, Athena, are supposed to be very far reaching in wisdom if not nigh all-knowing ; the religion and theology weren't quite how the Theoi are portrayed in Homeric and Ovidian poetry, and the poets were in conflict with the philosophers (one even said he wanted to beat Homeros with a stick). Orpheus himself was hailed as a founder of Hellenismos, by the last Princeps of Rome, Emperor Julianos II, a devotee of Helios Rex and disciple of Iamblichus, and an initiate of the cult of Mithra ; so it is generally safe to believe Orphism and orphic cosmogony as possessed with Orthodoxy.

I like that chapter a lot. Not only is It well written, as usual, but it makes more sense than the original and isn't nearly as impious toward the Theoi.

I hope that your working life and schedule will change for the better.

Condolence, for your mother.

In some fictions, the wizarding world believes that gods were wizards with jobs, which consisted in posing as Gods in front of the Muggles ; and that this Romano-hellenic tradition fell along with the Roman Empire and the arrival of christianity. This is something you could use, if you need public identities in the wizarding world for the Theoi and others ; just saying.

Nutritionally, humans can not digest vegetal fibres, only dining with fish or meat is truly healthy. That's why you have all those vegans prematurely aging, or being medically advised to stop starving themselves to death. Vegetarianism is still advisable to monks and ascetics ; but, historically, in Japan, even monks, Kannushi, the Imperial and Tokugawa families were eating meat as medicine (despite playing themselves in a state of ritual impurity for a duration depending on what meat it is, equine and bovine meats had longer taboo spans lasting months, so Kannushi were typically strict vegetarians unless officing for a Kami of hunting such as Suwa Daimyōjin). Vedic literature also contains praises to meat written by some of the Rishis, especially Agastya, who is among the greatest offerers. Nutritionally, salads with vinegar contain almost nothing. In fact, it's healthier and more nutritive and energizing to drink lots of beer with low alcool content as it it a cold soup, which is what workers were doing in the past, especially Germans.

In the previous comment, I forgot to add something I should have commented on the earlier chapters : Hera having power only over mariage is extremely suspiscious. That is because, in the elemental poem of Empedocles, where each of the 4 classical elements are associated to one of the Theoi, Hera is the Earth ; Zeus, who is constantly associated with the bright Sky of Greece and Ouranos, is the God of the Ær (and not Fire, contrary to what many have claimed nonsensically) which also fits the narrative of the Percy Jackson series. Aidoneus (a name of Hades used in poetry) is Fire, not Zeus ; Empedocles was from Sicily, a volcanic island, which inspired the imagery of the Hades.

It's interesting that all of this appears to be mostly Hermeticism (named after Hermes) without the Kaballistic content, same as the wand wielding ; but it is justified only by Advaita and the Vedic Tradition. The "God" Harry asked about is Brahman. Disregard Buddhist copium, I found so far it's mostly just sophistry to cope with the non-sequitur claims (vis-à-vis of the Vedic concepts being redefined arbitrarily), such as Buddha attaining "Brahmā" via Mukti.

The less barbaric formulation to Harry's question is, in fact, "does Brahman has personnality" ? The theoretical answer is that any God, especially in the world of Percy Jackson, can expand his personnality to Brahman. In practice, it's probably just a title of Shiva.

God is, ab origine, a title, probably of Wotanaz. Zeus is also a title, and has the same etymology as Deus (and the correct pronunciation is probably Zdeus ; also, actual Greek pronunciation is Ze(u)fs, you almost don't hear the u), most likely the true and forgotten name of the deity is... Indra.

It goes as follow... You, who read this comment, knows about the story of the knight who rescues a princess from a dragon, right ? And then, they get married and live happily ever after... Or so would go a fairy tale. But the origin story is different.

It's not a Knight (which is a germanic word meaning bounded in service to a Lord or Kynge by feudal contract), it's an Indo-European Aryan chariot riding Kshatriya. And it's not a princess, it's a cow (or a whole herd, rather). And it's not a dragon, it's the western civilized (i.e. sedentary) Aryans, i.e. the Ashuras and Yazatas, i.e. It's the Iranian and Turanian peoples (also,the ancestors or the Syriac people, probably... Although it's written Syria, it's actually pronounced as Surya, as in Sūryadeva), being on the receiving end of cattle raids by the Vedic and Khasa Aryans. It is the Deva Rāja, Indra, focus of the Kshatriya spirituality, drunk on tons (literally, before every major battle) of Sōma, eating a hundred oxens, and rescuing cows stolen (?) by the Iranians' deities, by smiting them with his Vajra, undestructible (much like the Knights in steel armours came to be, invulnerable to ennemies attacks, and therefore above and beyond most other mortal men). And who is a King of the Gods married to a goddess titled the Sacred Cow ? Zeus is a Mediterranean retelling on Indra. And people used his title so much that they forgot his actual name, this is why Hades and Poseidaon are also called Zeus.

I will keep reading this fic. So far, it's the only story I found where Magic itself isn't, well, kinda wimpy. The take of Perfected Lionheart on Dumbledore being a super powerful, manipulative and vicious Dark Lord was far more interesting and logical (no matter how you look at it, it makes perfect sense), but he stopped writting more of that story. And Magic in that story isn't as Metaphysically making sense as in this one.

And from this chapter we get yet another reason for Harry to never end up in Hogwarts - having no interest in his fame.

Hey, so, how old is Thalia right now? Because it just occurred to me that she never became a tree - which means she's now likely the one the Great Prophecy is referring to.

"Normal people don't let children go on quests."

So, like, I know you're using Hestia as his mother figure to try and parent him in the ways a decent parent would but, come on. This is the Percy Jackson universe.

Children going on quests is literally the standard. The gods themselves consistently send their children out on quests - even when those children are eleven years old - or younger.

Seriously. He has a superior version of the Sword of Gryffindor now, his magic defies all rules of Hogwarts' magic and would be actively hindered by those rules; why the hell would he ever go to Hogwarts?
5/5 c23 Guest
Now that we have a more technical explanation of the magic system I'm one hundred percent certain that my initial concerns were correct - Hogwarts will only hinder Harry's magical abilities.
5/5 c20 Guest
Okay, seriously, why would Harry ever go to Hogwarts in this universe? Not only is it a place with very strict authority he'd have to follow along with - it would also be at best useless and at worst an active hindrance to his abilities.

Following along with Marduk's analogy - if he already knows how to bake a cake from scratch; why would he ever waste his time attending a school to teach people have to bake cakes specifically using cake mixes?

Throwing the analogy away and focusing on the biggest issue - if magic is based on belief; then if he attends a school for mortal magic for seven years then he must either fail the classes (because he's being tested to use wand waving magic specifically) or succeed in them and actively hinder his magic skills as he starts to believe that wand waving is necessary.

Then there's also the fact that the school will just be beneath him at that point. The titan war will likely have started by that point - meaning it'd be really hard to justify him not participating in a war that involves the fate of his friends and family; and he's already far more capable than any Harry Potter wizard. Not to mention that Harry Potter's plot is also already resolved.
