Hephaestus was the best godly blacksmith and he made all the jewelry, clever mechanisms, armors and weapons for fellow deities. But to produce such beautiful masterpieces, he needed a lot of gems, stones, gold and other metals and those belonged to Hades, as wealth hidden underground was one of his domains. Does that mean Hades provided the needed and precious materials for his nephew and in wider perspective, to his family living at Olympus?

Or maybe there is any myth out there explaining from where Hephaestus get all the needed materials for his blacksmith work?

#cienie overthinks stuff again #hades #hades god of the underworld #hephaestus #greek mythology #i'm trying to figure out hades relationship with his nephews and nieces #granted there is not so much about him in general but the gold and precious stones don't show up at olympus out of nowhere right?#and young hephaestus was making jewelry before he was allowed come back at olympus #So who gave him all the gold to make throne for hera for example? Or all the palaces for other gods?
