#lo Hera

A star is born 🌟

I just had to redesign Hera’s fertility goddess form. In all ways possible, I wanted her to be opposite of Kronos, hence the total makeover.

I based her color palette off of a neutron star! Neutron stars are technically dead stars and she was “dead” there for a minute so I figured that would go hand in hand.

Hope you like my redesign (click for better resolution) ✨

So many FEELZ in this week's Lore Olympus!

As we've known for a while, Kronos is holding Melinoe captive for his purposes. He says that if she helps him, then she can go home.

But let's be honest with ourselves here--- can we really believe he would keep that promise?

Melinoe explains what she knows of her abilities.

"Magic of the mind" definitely plays into her powers in the original Greek mythology. In the Orphic Hymns, she was the goddess of nightmares and madness.

She goes on to regale that she mostly used her powers to help with the shades. Unfortunately, under Kronos' orders, she's forced to use them to mentally harm others. Using the insecurities of others against them upsets her.

Love seeing Hecate in an educative auntie kind of role!

"I've only just met you, and I love you."

This is heartbreaking. Even if Kronos wasn't physically hurting Melinoe, he was still crushing her mentally and emotionally. It's the same kind of torture Hades endured while devoured, and that's ON TOP OF the physical abuse.

This moment is ESPECIALLY important!

Hades is putting his heart and soul into telling Melinoe that Kronos' horrible deeds are not her burden to bear. She should NEVER fault herself for things beyond her control, including what Kronos makes her do.

In the same breath, Hades realizes that these are the words that HE needed to hear himself. Even though he looks much like Kronos, he is NOT Kronos. He is VERY against using Persephone's fertility goddess powers, even on accident. Hades is VERY determined NOT to be his father.

Melinoe asks if Hades wants to see "Nana," and in the next moment, Rhea appears. Much like Melinoe, Rhea was pulled from her place in the past.

Her and Hades have a tearful reunion. Hades voices his worries about abusing Persephone's powers, and Rhea reassures him that love will prevent him from destroying her.

"And Father loved you too..."

It's a crucial point to raise. Yes, there was love between Kronos and Rhea, but Kronos ultimately loved power more, and it made him dangerous.

As Kronos approaches, Rhea reminds him of the importance of REAL love and fades away.

This is it.....looks like it's down to Hera and Hades vs Kronos.

Persephone and Dionysos have been returned to the Mortal Realm.

Will Melinoe be able to help from the sidelines? Where is Morpheus?

Anyway, thanks for coming to my LO post!

soooo i ended up deleting all of my lore olympus art like a year ago or smthn bc of bad associations with it due to the fandom, but now that the comic is over and i've heard the fandom has cooled off a bit i decided to repost all of it bc i'm still proud of it and i enjoy the series and idk maybe there's someone out there who missed my stuff.

starting off with a redraw of Hera being a badass bc we love a queen <3

Hera yet again! Her color palette is very nice for shading practice. I'm actually SO sad this series is ending soon(outside fastpass), it's been quite the experience.

[lil-antares-in-sky]

Did you forget, I was created to destroy you 🖤✨️

Please don't repost my art without my permission.

Big thanks for the pens from @genericpuff who collected pretty much every pen needed for LO s1 recreations

LO re-draw and explanation.

The party everyone's at in the prolouge is the Panathenaea festival, which according to wiki was made in honour of Athena. thus i gave Zeus a little owl pin. Also they match. Also I changed some dialogue so it's specifically a party/celebration for Athena not Zeus.

I imagine Hera would be very afraid of “dying”

Lore Olympus is a fight this week, but not quite what was expected.

The battle commences with Hera not only telling Kronos that she's not going to play nice anymore, but affirming that she is definitely kicking his ass.

Kronos tries the "we're equals, let's rule together" bit.

Nope, not happening.

*crunching of Kronos' fingers*

Whoa whoa whoa..... wait a minute..... Hecate really thought a Persephone look-alike was a good idea?

If Demeter saw that, she'd pick up on it right away. And we would likely have more Demeter rage.....

Also, the nymphs have pointed ears. As a goddess, Persephone does not. It's one thing when humans cosplay elves by ADDING pointed ears, but I imagine it'd be a lot harder to hide pointed ears. Magic COULD potentially be used to hide them (and Hecate IS the goddess of magic), so it's not IMPOSSIBLE, but potentially IMPLAUSIBLE.

Persephone is back!

Hecate: *physically telling the nymphs to fuck off*

Persephone is a thirsty girl after her trip to Tartarus!

Glad Persephone is amazed by Hera's titan-form, but yikes almighty! What happened to YOUR proportions????

We shift over to Hades' confrontation with Kronos. Hades tries to mentally defend himself, but Kronos' abuse still cuts deep. He shrinks him down to a child and swallow Hades yet again.

Even as he does so, Kronos continues to torment him...

...that is, until Kronos mentions Melinoe. At this, Hades comes out of stupor. Hades reiterates the conversation he had with his future daughter, that Kronos' bullshit is not theirs to fix. It is not their job to pay for Kronos' horrible deeds.

As he does so, Hades gradually "grows up" physically and mentally pushes through the fog....

...and, at last, he escapes from Kronos' hold on his own. (Well, maybe not ENTIRELY on his own; Hera is also kicking his ass elsewhere simultaneously.)

As a final word, Hades "closes" the encounter with Kronos, not with a violent blow, but by somehow sealing him up.

This is the closure Hades needed. Hopefully, this is enough to hold the titan away for good. We certainly don't want Kronos popping out of this gem like a pokémon anytime soon.

Anyway, thanks for coming to my LO post!
