This is really cool and I would totally dig it... but given the Christian oriented mythology of SPN, I wonder if they would end up changing it somehow? Or maybe they would connect the old gods in with the Christian world through this?
Well, we’ve had other gods/goddesses brought into the SPN world already, so maybe connecting or overlapping again somehow?
I was wondering that too though, how to bring it into the quite loosely based mythology that’s been at the core to date.
There were a few parts on the Wiki that spoke to it a bit:
Tartarus is only known in Hellenistic Jewish literature from the Greek text of 1 Enoch, dated to 400–200 BC. This states that God placed the archangel Uriel "in charge of the world and of Tartarus" (20:2). Tartarus is generally understood to be the place where 200 fallen Watchers (angels) are imprisoned.
We’ve seen Uriel in SPN already. And the fallen Watchers/angels could tie in to the angel storyline they haven’t resolved yet.
And this part:
In the New Testament, the noun Tartarus does not occur but tartaroo (ταρταρόω, "throw to Tartarus"), a shortened form of the classical Greek verb kata-tartaroo ("throw down to Tartarus"), does appear in 2 Peter 2:4.
“For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell [1] and committed them to chains [2] of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment;"
