This could be something you are born with or develop over time, something that is caused by something inside you and is learnt to be controlled over time. Another way to look at this, is to picture someone doing a hard task very easily because of a simple command done with their body. For example Poseidon’s could control the entire sea and create storms, which is very hard for ordinary humans. Other examples of this term are invisibility, super speed, mind reading etc.
- Act of expression or devotion, usually towards a deity. This is the act of adoration towards their actions and identity in general. Also could be recognition of a god, performed individually or in a group. For example many people praise Zeus for his actions or decisions, they want to be just like him or help him throughout their lives as much as they can.
- olympus This is where all the important and most powerful twelve olympians live and were raised in (Poseidon, Hades, Zeus, Hera etc). This is located on the highest mountain in Greece in Thessaly. The mountain was created after the “Titanomachy”, which is an epic battle between the young olympians and the titans. Zeus, who overthrew his father (Cronos), rules the place on the throne.
- A territory or area controlled or owned by the government or a particular ruler. This could also be what a specific ruler is in charge of or their responsibilities. For example Poseidon is in charge of not letting unwanted fishermen or sailors pass the seas. This could also be where a specific deity lived, grew up in or was raised in.
