PROLOGUE

There was harsh whispers everywhere in the council room of the Gods at Olympus. The throne room of Olympus was bearing witness to a trial the likes of which was not seen after the First Titanomachy. The accused standing trial was none other than Lord Hades, the lord of the Underworld.

After the Second World War, the Oracle of Delphi was found to be unable to take new hosts due to some unknown reasons. Apollo, the Sun God approached Zeus and the Fates with his concern. An investigation into the matter of the problem was done and the oracle was found to be cursed. The curse was traced back to none other than Lord Hades. A further investigation revealed more proverbial skeletons of Hades in the form of two demigod children who were cleverly hidden in the Lotus Casino.

The Council and the subjects of Olympus fell silent as Lord Zeus cleared his throat to make the verdict. "The council has heard all the arguments of both sides and has reached a verdict. For your crimes against Olympus by hiding two of your Demigod children who were instructed to be turned over to Camp Half-Blood and the Oracle of Phoebus Apollo, the Olympian Council has found you, Hades, Lord of the Underworld, guilty."

"The Council of Olympus hereby sentence you to a lifetime as a mortal for your crimes against Olympus. You will have no memories of your past for as long as you are in your Mortal form and your titles shall be held in trust until the end of your sentence. However the council has taken into its consideration your mindset after the death of your mortal lover and as a leniency, has decided that you will be born into the community of wand wielders protected by Lady Hecate. You shall regain all of your memories and titles as soon as you are shed of your Mortal form. So I say, so mote it be."
