With Demeter pulling s*it like this, killing innocent mortals for no reason other than 'its part of the plan'. No wonder Gaia is pissed and decided to release Typhon after Heron was killed.
Demeter straight up releasing an even more violent version of The Last of Us virus so casually really shows that Gaia had the right of it when she released Typhon.
Actually, those who told these stories understood very well what the Nature of such beings would be like. When you are not bound by the shackles of mortality, your moral standards CANNOT be the same of mortals, it wouldn't make sense. Imagine you would NEVER die, NEVER. And now imagine your devotees had such a brief life, the duration of a blink of your eye. Imagine they are ants. Do you give much importance to the ants' colony you exterminate in your backyard? No. Why? because you believe your purpose is higher than the purpose of an ant, and it is justifiable to exterminate the colony. Similarly, and eternal being would see us like we see ants.
@@Cobalt1520 Well even the Greek gods can die of old age. This happened to pan when he lost his worshippers. It is the reason why Zeus freaked out when Demeter would not allow plants to grow when Persephone left for the underworld.
@@Cobalt1520Ha, ha, NO. Speaking as someone who's ancestors worshipped said gods, I emphatically disagree. It's one thing to be looked upon with cold calculation, impartiality, and indifference. It's another to be deliberately targeted, directly or indirectly, in an act of spite. The gods are meant to perform certain actions within the role of the sphere of their divine influence, this is true. But it's one thing to simply be caught up in the wake of the movement of their function in the world vs. their twisting of it to suit the whims of their petty spite.
@@oceanberserker The norse gods are only immortal due to a constant supply of golden apples from Iðunn. When Loki lured Iðunn out of Asgard the golden apples stopped growing and the gods began to age rapidly. They got pissed when they figured out Loki took Iðunn out of Asgard and made him get her back. Only once Iðunn returned did the golden apples grow again and the norse gods became young and immortal. Greek gods rely on worship to stay immortal and powerful which is why they had mortals construct temples dedicated to each specific God.
At least Hera had an excuse. She was a woman scorned. Demeter killed those innocent people just so she could gain more power. The worst part is that those people were farmers and therefore they worshipped her and looked to her for a bountiful harvest, and she killed them like it was nothing.
I really don't blame Gaia for being fed up with her grandchildren's bullsh*t. First, Zeus with his constant cheating and going behind the other gods backs; Hera starting a war against her own family; and now Demeter poisoning the earth and killing thousands, if not tens of thousands, of innocent people who, by the way, worshipped and looked up to her specifically. It's a wonder Grandma Gaia didn't snap Eons ago. She spent thousands of years in a toxic marriage to a tyrant, only to get out and have to be constantly dealing with her babies' and grandbabies' nonsense.
Ok so zeus infidelity is equivalent to this shit what kind of logic is that your telling me we could have a super wise and good king but he sleeps with other women hence he trash
@@colerobinson1422 Oh yes it should. Do you have any idea how many women Zeus cheated on Hera with?? How many of those women and their children suffered because of it?? Plus, Zeus would break all the rules, *his own rules mind you*, just so he could get off and interfere in the lives of mortals. Which as we know from the show is a big no no.
@@leeammorris1268okay but just saying “cheating” makes it seem that’s all he did. If it’s truly just cheating, then is whatever. It’s gross but very much the least egregious act committed between Hera and Zeus. Now if some of those partners were forced, then that’s a different story. But like cheating is bad, but some people demonize it to the point it’s ridiculous.
@@JelliesStar if we are talking about greek mythology then Zeus has forced himself on multiple women, most of which then also got "punished" by Hera for what amounts to being raped by her husband and raising his rape baby. It still isn't as bad as a civil war or mass killing of innocents but zeus is definetely a horrible monster
@@aayushraychaudhury9215eh, nurgle IS the god of pestulence where worshippers are numbering in 3 digit billions at leasts. If he can take isha, who is an eldar god that trillions used to worship, I think he can take on demeter where barely a million worshipers are under her name. She seems to be living in the materium, so there is also a disadvantage to her.
Reminder that when Persephone disappeared and remained in the Underworld, Demeter refused to bring back spring and plunged the world in a long lasting winter. As a result, many-many-many people died. And then she just keeps doing it when Persephone slips back to Hades.
A mother has every right to enter a depression when she loses her child, the fault in the myth lies ( typically) in Zeus interfering with their daughter without informing Demeter.
@thehermit8723 It was more than a bout of depression, Demeter full well knew refusing to bring back spring would lead to the deaths of mortals. And then she just refused to bring it back and went to go be a wet nurse.
Remember, she is a nature goddess and that does not make her kind by assumption, as nature can be cruel. The strong eat or kill the weak in nature and she is doing just that: she is an immortal goddess who kills the weak mortals, though not for survival but because she wants to claim her daughter back at any cost. Also, we saw plenty of times that Demeter is uncompromising, head strong and has a deep need to control anything she claim as her own. Let's remember that she unleashes the frost and snowstorms during the winter so that every mortal suffers the absence of Persephone like she does. And, if we see this from another point of view, this is just another way for her to punish Hades. She basically said to him that she is killing those mortals to enhance the army of the dead and so she is giving him the burden of those deaths, while she appears innocent. And she said just that to Persephone: that this was Hades' idea, not hers
Nope nope nope lol, Demeter is a vindictive goddess, exhibit A robbing the world of its fertility and causing an ice age because Zeus gave away Persephone. Exhibit B is that one time when a king killed one of her favored nymphs, and in retaliation, she inflicted Limos, the goddess of starvation upon him to make him so hungry he eventually ate himself.
Holy fuck, this world needs a Kratos to really tear appart all the Gods. They are on par with his own post evils corruption. Hope Typhon lives up to the task
I find this in line with her character from mythology, when Persephone went into the underworld Demeter shirked her duties and basically straight up caused winter to happen to starve and freeze mortals to death until she had her daughter back. And every time her daughter returns to the underworld Demeter does it again
And this is on character. Last time she got pissy about not being able to cuddle her daughter and left greece to starve with the first winter. And refused to fo anything until hades let her go. Which he did not because he was scared or shamefull, but because he wanted the person he loved to be with her mother again. Hades is the best god in the greek pantheon short of prometeus
The problem with that is that the Gods are not children. The Gods were supposed to lead by example and protect the world. Instead the were selfish and had no care for the people or the world.
They were supposed to be reflections of Ancient Greek social conventions. That’s why Hera goes after the women and men Zeus gets with; because she couldn’t retaliate directly against him. It’s not right but Greek myths were used to explain the good and bad parts of the world, meaning the gods could be nasty.
This is frickin' BODY HORROR stuff right here. Cronenberg level, I'd venture. Demeter really was the true villain here, far worse than Hera ever was. She basically ends up unleashing hell on Earth with her machinations in the end too.
It is ironic that the Olympian’s that are the kindest and best examples to follow, both in official myth and in Blood of Zeus, are not considered Olympians.
Most of the Greek gods have terribly nasty mindset. But I thought Demeter, Persephone and Artemis were kind.... Well, now I see that Demeter is just another Hera.
Honestly, between the two I'd say Demeter here is much worse than Hera ever was. Hera focused her rage mostly on Zeus (rightfully so, considering how often he cheated on her) and his affair partners/bastard children. Sure she released the titans, but still she kept her rage pointed *mostly* at one target. Demeter on the other hand is actively punishing Humanity over and over again (who mind you had little to nothing to do with her daughter being "taken" away from her) in increasingly cruel ways both as an outlet for her rage/sorrow and as a way to get back at Hades for the perceived slight of taking her child away when her daughter made it CLEAR that she had chosen to be with Hades of her own free will
@@Markus2E5I6 Well, I actually meant the Artemis of children’s Greek myth I used to read in my childhood. 😂 I always thought she was nice but then I read the original version... 💀💀 Now I have mixed feelings towards her.
I can see the shock in Hades’s face Demeter is willing to kill innocent mortals that literally just be living their normal lives all because “it was an apart of the plan” tbh for what? killing mortals for power? I can see why Gaia summoned Typhon that may be harsh but it’s for the good.
Okay, I get it. Where is the nearest giant corpse? After all, the prospect of turning into a violent demon is not so scary when your gods want to kill you with one of the most violent images known to nature.
I never knew Hera could be such a great villain! No wonder why Disney rejected that, they could have made a better villain of her than Hades, she would have been the best!
hades isn't mean and ruthless. many films made hades a villain. he's very neutral god. he's also very generous too. hera is enemy of Zeus's children, especially Heracles.
@@lol0ajo Oh, I can understand that. I mean I have no problem with concepts of neutral deities in fiction especially the good ones, too. I always had a problem with evil taking too much of our favorite deities in polytheism in which some people enjoy demonizing associating with the devil from Abrahamic folklore, which can be a bit too much to accept with especially those superstitious people of Christianity who enjoy preaching the supremacy of this one god with a capital “G” to claim as the only good deity, which is something that I can’t stand.
@@lol0ajoUnfortunately, Hades being a god of death in the underworld often has him being compared to the Devil and the Christian Hell on aesthetics alone. It’s the reason why, in the clash of the titans remake, he’s the one with the kraken instead of Poseidon.
Rewatching this....like I just have to say I'm glad they had such a good depiction of Demeter. Yea she screwed up but I feel of all adaptations, she is heavily underused and seeing her shown to this extent has been great.
I agree that she should be used more but I really don’t like how they went with the trend of making Demeter a helicopter parent since it goes so far against her characterisation in the mythos
@@oddball9023 What's her characterization in the myth i may ask? I aint THAT verse with her but I always felt she was underused in media. Though I will say, with the Persephone story being more regarding her agency, I don't see how they'd make her THAT sympathetic.
@@funkycrawler619 it’s not actually Persephone’s story. In the original hymn Demeter is the main character. She’s not an overprotective controlling abuser, she’s a grieving mother who’s daughter got taken from her. The act of creating winter is a result of Demeter’s depression not an active choice she made
@@oddball9023 Oh no i get that. I mean here the show is more focused on Persephone story rather than Demeter. I remember the original hymn way back when I first learned of it, but I also prefer the take that Persephone made a choice rather than force.
You know you're doing something *_really, really fucked_* when even *_Hades_* calls you out for making a conscription mandate for his skeleton army via codyceps.
Oh god its the Green Baby only worse.... Green Baby is the name of a stand user in Stone Ocean of Jojo. Whoever got near that thing during its creation got turned into a tree. And it was horrible. The trees didnt burst out of them but their flesh and blood turned to wood and sap. They even showed a dudes eye twist and warp into a flower.
Okay but the original myth that this is all based on is very interesting. In the original a king goes into Demeter's sacred grove and begins destroying everything. Until he gets to the center and then proceeds his top down the most sacred tree of all which was actually a nymph. In retribution she causes him to become endlessly hungry to the point where he eats himself. How I interpret this myth is that if you destroy the land you live on you will inevitably starve to death.
Casually releasing Human version of Cordyceps.... price of those things must be high in the market. A catapilar cordyceps cost roughly around 20k. A human cordyceps could easily reach around 100k
Demeter unleashing a horrific thing like this and killing innocents just to make gods who were born out of wedlock a little sick. I'm seeing Gaia's point on ending these gods more and more.
With Demeter pulling s*it like this, killing innocent mortals for no reason other than 'its part of the plan'. No wonder Gaia is pissed and decided to release Typhon after Heron was killed.

You know you're doing something *_really, really fucked_* when even *_Hades_* calls you out for making a conscription mandate for his skeleton army via codyceps.
It’s giving me Prometheus and alien covenant vibes the spore’s part
That's some Nurgle shit right there
Hades: well shit...more paper work for me.
You know you went too far when the god of death is like: Geez.. chill out.
Not them making Demeter a homicidal b****. She was actually a pretty chill goddess except from the time when Hades snatched her daughter.
Watching this makes me realize how right Kratos was with the fuck ups
We need Kratos more than ever!
New season RoR be lookin different
Goddamn! It's some Scavengers' Reign level shit! Or even worse!
You heard of the Scarlet Rot. Now prepare for: the Mountain Dew rot.
For the glory of Nurgle!!!
Even younger I never considered Demeter a grieving mother but a psycho who was mad her daughter found love
Kratos adding Demeter to his kill list...
Oh god its the Green Baby only worse....
Green Baby is the name of a stand user in Stone Ocean of Jojo. Whoever got near that thing during its creation got turned into a tree. And it was horrible. The trees didnt burst out of them but their flesh and blood turned to wood and sap. They even showed a dudes eye twist and warp into a flower.
The spores look kinda like minecraft xp orbs
Me: Blood of Zeus in The Last Of Us Universe confirmed. Fight me.
That looks like something nurgle would do.
The casual disregard these Gods have for the lives of innocent is just evil. I can understand why Kratos annihilated these pricks
GOW Kratos would be real mad about this
Demeter made Hera look like a daggone Saint like put her in Tartarus fr
Gaia: LITTLE GIRL,IF U KNOW BETTER YOU'D CUT IT OUT N STOP FUCKING WITH MY EARTH N MORTALS! I AINT THE OTHERS! YOU AINT GONNA RUN WILD!
Gore
Gaia: Wtf is this shit?
Nurgle would be proud
now that i think about it plant powers are hard as fuck
Okay but the original myth that this is all based on is very interesting. In the original a king goes into Demeter's sacred grove and begins destroying everything. Until he gets to the center and then proceeds his top down the most sacred tree of all which was actually a nymph. In retribution she causes him to become endlessly hungry to the point where he eats himself. How I interpret this myth is that if you destroy the land you live on you will inevitably starve to death.
The Olympian sisters are no joke first it was Hera then her big sis Demeter
When you destroy target creature and get a land.
Man where is kratos when we need him
Just wait till you meet Kratos lol
well this was just plain horrifying.
Casually releasing Human version of Cordyceps.... price of those things must be high in the market. A catapilar cordyceps cost roughly around 20k. A human cordyceps could easily reach around 100k
Zeus be like: I wonder how I'm going to cheat on my wife today
Demeter turn to poison ivy 💚🌿🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿🌿💚🌿
Demeter was the OG Poison Ivy.
If Lilith Clawthorne was a murderer.
Demeter unleashing a horrific thing like this and killing innocents just to make gods who were born out of wedlock a little sick. I'm seeing Gaia's point on ending these gods more and more.
I really do need to finish these series
Let this be a lesson to you all, the lives of mortals mean nothing to the gods.
She said cortecepts like the zombie ant fungus or the cortecepts virus from the last of us
