Absolutely fucking insane to me that we got the two for one deal on unvirgin-izing goddesses in court of the dead.

If you were writing HOO how would you have liked Minerva to be characterized?

Okay so- honestly- she's like the Goddess of Rome there. Right up there with Jupiter and Juno.

It honestly might've fit better for her to assign the quest rather than Mars. Or both together to emphasize how this is a war to go out, and a war to guard the home.

She should be stern, but kind. She is the Goddess of a Thousand Works, and that should've been reflected.

She's not diminished, she's a shield. She is a peaceful Goddess who knows how to go to war when needed. She is wise, she understands what must be done.

In this she could even be the one giving Annabeth her quest, giving her a quest to bring peace and stop the war. Because she is a war Goddess, but she is also the Goddess of Peace.

Let it be reflected, let it be shown, she is more than Rick showed her, she is so much more. Honestly she could be displayed as one truly torn, a powerful respected Goddess no matter her aspect, torn between her people's and trying to get peace for all of them.

Of course, if I were writing HOO then... I would not have the Greek and Roman Gods in one being, they'd be separate, just connected.
