Tartarus

between the gods, goddesses and these immortal beings are the embodiment respective parts of the earth and universe. Hesiod explains that in the beginning there was only Chaos and then came Gaea, the broad earth who supports Mt Olympus and at its core, Tartarus.

Zeus,…

What I experienced was Tartarus on earth. The Nazi’s who imprisoned us were sadistic and terrible. The smell of death hung in the air, bodies dangled by ropes tied around their necks, nowhere was safe, and hope was a thing long abandoned. Jews were nothing, less than dogs. In the camps, there was no humanity or hope. My captors were cold and many enjoyed our torture. Women, children, men, it mattered not to the Nazis who received punishment. Only the strong or skilled had any chance at survival,…

To usher in the introduction of Reverend Hale to the chaos soon to ensue, Arthur Miller outlines his predisposition to the matter at hand, as he claims Reverend Hale ¨feels himself allied with the best minds of Europe—kings, philosophers, scientists, and ecclesiasts of all churches¨ (36) . Furthermore, Hale has been waiting for a chance like this to exercise his powers; as Miller notes ¨he knows the exaltation of the blessed whose intelligence, sharpened by the minute examinations of enormous…

The Greek Mythology is a Polytheistic religion. It was created in the era of Classical Greece, in 500 b.c.e.

In the poem, "From the Dao de jing", the pictures in this poem pass on the possibility of the Dao as a unity of opposites are the: bowls, carts, windows and doors. Every one of these pictures demonstrate its immense and puzzling inventive potential. "A clay bowl is molded; but the use of the bowl will depend on the part of the bowl that is void (jing line 7)." The items that are made are relying upon the part that is void. The void speaks to an entire hollow space where potential "usefulness…

if through its transmigrations the soul continues doing good and eliminates the bodily impurities it will eventually return to its pre-existence state. But, if the soul continually deteriorates through its bodily inhabitations it will end up in Tartarus, a place of eternal damnation. This appears to be an origination of both the concept of karma and the Christian concept of hell. It was around the first century AD that both the Greek and Roman writers were surprised by the fact that the Druids…

These divine myths provided explanations, reassured life, encouraged people to live on and inspired great achievements.

A/N Sorry for the wait, I had to go to a party plus I just got Overwatch. Disclaimer: I do not own PJO or HoO. Percy I hurtled through the ground faster than a jet, homing in on the power signal of the titans. They seemed to be stationed in Canada, to make it harder for the gods to detect them, but with my current level of power, I could find them on the other side of the world. I grinned because they were all in one place, which would make it much easier to slaughter all of them. I burst out…
