8/15/2023 0 Comments Hypnos and thanatos adventure![]() Oops! Hope he isn’t reading this right now. The second time? Well, Zeus never discovered that it was Hypnos who put him to sleep. And after Zeus woke up in a rage the first time, Hypnos did run to his mommy for protection, so maybe he’s not as tough as we’d like to give him credit for. Which is still massively impressive when you consider how much the King of Olympus enjoys his espresso. In reality, Hypnos simply put Zeus to sleep twice. Okay, maybe “defeated in battle” is a little too generous. He is one of the only gods we can think of who has defeated Zeus in battle-and not just once, but twice! So, his whole deal is that he puts people to sleep? He has the same power as a podcast about soil conservation! You’d be wise not to underestimate Hypnos, though. We’re just giving them a little rest, that’s all. If we can keep our eyes open long enough, that is. But with Nico and Will traveling down to Hypnos’s hometown of Tartarus next month, we can’t think of a better time for readers to meet the god of ZZZs. And yet, Hypnos must have been sleeping during the events of the Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, and Trials of Apollo series, because we haven’t seen much of him. We’ve met members of Hypnos’s family before: his terrifying mother, Nyx his traitor child Morpheus his demigod son Clovis and more than enough of his awful siblings, such as Thanatos, Eris, and Nemesis. In that case, you may have been visited by Hypnos, the rarely seen Greek god of sleep. We’re talking about the wow, my dreams are so amazing, I would be happy to live in my subconscious until the end of time feeling. Ever have one of those days (or weeks or months) when you find it absolutely impossible to get out of bed in the morning? We’re not talking about the I really, really don’t want to get up and go to work/school today feeling that each one of us experiences every single Monday. ![]()
