+==Overview==
+===Landscape===
-==Overview==
+Olympus is very reminiscent of ancient Greece, complete with marble temples.
-The System of Olympus is predicated upon the idea of perfect hierarchy where the ones at the top, the Twelve Olympians descended from Cronus' bloodline, are infallible and their very existence was held as supreme and the top of the rank of the System. To that end, {{Transient icon|Hermes}} has been assigned to find and resolve any issues that may contradict this notion.
+===System===
+The System of Olympus places the utmost importance on one's bond, or lack thereof, with beings of high rank. These bonds were fast, described to be similar to bolts of lightning. To create these bonds, love has become a commodity within the world. Many desire to bond with those of a higher rank simply because of their lineage at the cost of respect for the individual themselves. The bonds people make care nothing about true love or how they feel about the person, but simply about where they came from and how high they rank. In other words, Olympian love is an impulsive search for pleasure, born on a lightning wave of passion. Someone being snatched away for their beauty is a common occurrence.<ref name="timeslip">[[Event Quest:Valentine Timeslip|Valentine’s Time Warp!]]</ref><sup>6 13</sup>
+Hera, partner to the one who held the highest rank, was not a fan of this system. She would regularly curse those who sought to bond with Zeus.<ref name="timeslip"></ref><sup>6 13</sup>
-Zeus currently stands at the top of the hierarchy, presiding over the Twelve. The Twelve decide what is right and how transgressions are to be punished, and those of a lower rank cannot resist the demands of those higher than them. The System places great importance on forming bonds with those of a higher rank through such methods as being a child of a higher-ranked being or through love, although said bonds tend to be very superficial as many do not care about the person themselves but rather their rank and the blood they have within them.
+At the very top of the world's hierarchy are the 12 Olympians, with Zeus at the top of them all. As such, everyone holds some sort of bond of fate towards him. However, this vast web of connections can lead to inconsistencies and contradictions and other complications that might tarnish the image of the highest ranks. To deal with these undesirables, {{Transient icon|Hermes}} is tasked to handle the dirty work that comes from his fellow Olympians. Whether it means being a negotiator, messenger, scammer, thief, or even murderer, he works to bring prosperity to the Cronos bloodline.<ref name="showdown">[[Event Quest:Christmas Showdown|Christmas Showdown]]</ref><sup>9B</sup>
+===Representative and Exile===
-Faith in the Supreme is the mechanism that perpetuates the System. All faith must be directed to the Supreme at the top of the hierarchy by forging bonds, which has lead to the assimilation of different cultures from across many defeated worlds into the System of Olympus. As such, Zeus is destined to forge bonds of love with all things, in ever-increasing numbers.
+The World Representative of Olympus is Zeus, one of the 12 Olympians and the highest ranking person in the world. he is foreordained to be the one who establishes bonds of love with all of creation in Olympus. Anyone and everyone with power and influence is made to become Zeus's companion, his descendant, his relative, that of which the number of these unwitting offspring continues to rise. However, because {{Transient icon|Perun}} and the {{Transient icon|Protagonist}}, both of whom resemble Zeus, exist in [[Tokyo]], he is unable to enter. Thus, Shinya acts as his proxy Reserve Representative, though Perun notes that Cronos' lineage can act as Olympus' Representative.<ref name="ch13">[[Release Campaign:Main Quest Chapter 13|Chapter 13: Invaders ~Undivine Destruction~]]</ref><sup>8 24</sup><ref name="ch9">[[Release Campaign:Main Quest Chapter 9|Chapter 9: Crafters - Karmic Engine]]</ref><sup>10</sup>
+The exile of Olympus is Eurynome who has the power to rend bloodlines.
