...The Caldera Cont. [W-07.2] == Once back at the Caldera, open the SPECIAL CHEST that contains a GORGON EYE and use your Fire Blades to break the gears holding the archimedean screw together. You may now backtrack to that new type of door you saw earlier, and break it down. Inside grab the GREEN CHEST and a RED CHEST before continuing along the path. When you slide down the next ramp you'll land onto a platform where you have to face two Minotaurs and some firebirds. Grab the BLUE/GREEN CHEST and then pull the lever here. Jump onto the lava rock and you will float along the lava flow. You will fight a small wave of fire crab-spiders before eventually needing to jump onto a wall as the lava rock begins to burn away. At the top open the SPECIAL CHEST that contains a MINOTAUR HORN and be sure to save at the Save Point. Sidle your way across the ledge to your right then break the gears on another one of the archimedean screws. Climb up the ledge here and keep moving. At the end of the path open both the GREEN CHEST and BLUE CHEST before breaking down another fire door. Open the SPECIAL CHEST and sidle your way through the crevice here and around into the Volcano Core. _______________________________________________________________________________ | NOTE: If you find all the SPECIAL CHESTS some will only contain Orbs, but if| | you miss some, the others will compensate. | |_____________________________________________________________________________| Before you can get completely around...

...Ares, the God of warfare and battle, had impacts on Greek warfare. This was from people believing that Ares would side with one side in a war, such as in the Trojan war Ares sided with the Trojans. He was also said in myths to be a physical form fighting alongside the humans. Ares was often viewed in a negative way in his representation in stories, often being humiliated. This was because of how he was merciless and cruel with his actions. Ares was viewed badly by the olympians also which led to his worship by the Greek people being low compared to other gods. He was viewed as a coward in most of the stories about him. This was due to him being prone to over exaggerate almost every injury he received. Ares had a few places named after him...

...What you don’t know won’t hurt. Nike and Ares are both gods, Nike is the god of Victory. Ares is the god of war. They were the bestest of friends, and honestly Nike and Ares kinda go hand in hand because Ares is the god of war, and Nike is the god of victory, and who wouldn't want to win the war. Nike had a weird feeling, kinda like when you're not feeling good. This went on for a couple weeks before he told Ares. Immediately Ares told Nike ‘’You need to go to the doctor. Ares even offered to take Nike, ‘’NO!’’ he refused. Nike went to the doctor the next day. The doctor had a concern about something on his lungs and wanted to do some testing. Nike was worried of what the doctor was concerned about. The doctor didn’t tell...

...Ares is a god of war and destruction and nobody would know that he would have a child that would help him through his life. He named this son Nicos. Ares was always giving tips and lessons to his son. Nicos was also a god of war and Ares would teach how to be one. Throughout Nico’s childhood he would remember it as being really destructive and his childhood was never flawless, after this he changed how he wants things.

He grew up and did thing differently from what his father did. He had a bad reputation in school because he was Ares’s son and because of his childhood. But he looked...

...Ares, the god of war, represents the more violent and bloody aspects of war (Jordan 28). Ares revels in warfare, not caring who wins or loses as long as a lot of blood is shed (D’Aulaire 32). Ares is vain and cruel; described by Zeus as “the most hateful of gods” (D’Aulaire 32; Jordan 28). Ares’ sons, Deimos and Phobos, are even more barbaric than he is (Jordan 28). He is described by Homer as murderous and bloodstained, yet also a coward (Hamilton 34). Ares can not bear pain and when he was wounded would scream so loudly he could be heard for miles (D’Aulaire 32). Despite Ares being the god of war, he is not the best fighter among the gods; Athena would often beat him with her intelligence alone and he occasionally lost in hand to hand combat (Devambez 52). Ares is depicted as tall and handsome, wearing a helmet and armed with a spear and...

...Gods Personify Us “We everlasting gods… Ah what chilling blows we suffer-thanks to our own conflicting wills-whenever we show there moral men some kindness’’ It is obvious that the gods and goddesses are very important in traditional Greek Culture. The whole cause of the Trojan War is based around the fact that even gods can feel emotions such as jealousy, anger and vengeance. The gods are used by Homer to add twists on an otherwise standard plot of war. During the epic, there are times when gods and goddesses alike influence the war by infuriating the soldiers in order to have them continue fighting. Other times, some gods or goddesses removed certain characters so as to avoid death. The gods do not maintain order among humans nor among themselves. They are at times completely selfish and the ones who mostly suffer the consequences of their selfish meddling are the mortals. The mortals pray to and make sacrifices to the gods, yet do not fully understand that their lives are in the hands of fate and fate alone. The gods’ actions are never a result of what is just or fair. They are not interested in the good of anyone, but only in their personal interests. In furthering their interests they use whatever mortals serve their purpose. The gods dabble in the life of man and routinely thwart any attempt for him to entirely forge his own future. The mortals in question are necessary only in so far as their use to the gods and when the gods will or desire is achieved; the...

...reflects this. Nearly all of the Greek gods are involved in the outcome of the Trojan War, which happens to be the background story of this epic poem. The gods are used by Homer to add twists on an otherwise standard plot of war. Evidently, the gods will be a powerful source of divine intervention and their actions certainly have significant outcomes on the Trojan War, and more importantly, the story of The Iliad. Zeus, very untypical of a Greek god in his lack of involvement in the Trojan War for selfish reasons, was portrayed as the father figure, being impartial and fair to both sides of the war. He remains this way to serve as a check for the other god's involvement in the war. Without the presence of fate controlling the inner circle of Olympus, it is likely that the activity of the Trojan War would have become chaotic, possibly even becoming a playground of war for the gods. The power of fate, above all of the other gods combined, is a power that not even divine intervention can prevent. This theme of fate and how it controls the god’s actions is quite befitting to the storyline of The Iliad. The Iliad, in essence, recounts the story of part of the tenth year of the Trojan War. It recounts of the anger of Achilles, the greatest warrior present at Troy, and of the background battle that is ensuing. The reoccurring theme in the Iliad is that no matter whom the character is, god or human, they are bound to their fate, and it is the gods who must be the mediators and deliverers...

...Do you believe that gods are morally superior to humans? In the Iliad there is a very complex relationship between the gods and the humans. One would commonly believe that the gods help the humans stay moral, however in the Iliad it is almost the exact opposite. This essay, through textual evidence as well as through arguments from authority, will show how the gods are in fact less moral than the humans. Often those who start or refuse to stop an unjust war are considered to be immoral people, or in the case of the Iliad as immoral gods. According to Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy on War, “War can be necessary and proportionate only if it serves an end worth all this death and destruction” (Lazar 3.1). Meaning war may be needed if there is a just reason and if the war will prevent even more catastrophe. The gods in the Iliad time and time again act immoral by provoking unjust wars and frequently encouraging wars to continue that are coming to an end, such as when Athena "stirs" the fighting at the wishes of Zeus, Zeus telling Athena to "Urge on the Danaans" (Book 17, 537-543). In the Iliad each god has their own self-serving plan for what they wish to happen and every one of them uses the...

...Psalms 46:6-11; ; . War and peace depend on his word and will, as much as storms and calms at sea do, Ps 107:25,29. He makes wars to cease unto the end of the earth, sometimes in pity to the nations, that they may have a breathing-time, when, by long wars with each other, they have run themselves out of breadth. Both sides perhaps are weary of the war, and willing to let it fall; expedients are found out for accommodation; martial princes are removed, and peace-makers set in their room; and then the bow is broken by consent, the spear cut asunder and turned into a pruning-hook, the sword beaten into a ploughshare, and the chariots of war are burned, there being no more occasion for them; or, rather, it may be meant of what he does, at other times, in favour of his own people. He makes those wars to cease that were waged against them and designed for their ruin. He breaks the enemies' bow that was drawn against them. No weapon formed against Zion shall prosper, Isa 54:17. The total destruction of Gog and Magog is prophetically described by the burning of their weapons of war (Ezek 39:9,10), which intimates likewise the church's perfect security and assurance of lasting peace, which made it needless to lay up those weapons of war for their own service. The bringing of a long war to a good issue is a work of the Lord, which we ought to behold with wonder and thankfulness. II. As King of saints, and as such we must own that great and marvellous are his works, Rev 15:3. He does...

...Outcome? The outcome of the war: Is it controlled by the actions of mere mortals? Do the gods determine the successes and failures? Is the outcome solely a matter of fate? Some may believe that mortals have free will, but after a quick skim of the Iliad, this belief is clearly shown to be false. Humans are not given control over their destinies; however, if this is true, then what are these destinies controlled by? Fate seems to be the only answer, yet, can fate alone stop a god from changing outcomes for their personal gain? In the Iliad, gods and humans are shown to have a varying degree of control on the outcome of human life and death. The true controller of the outcome of success vs. failure, and life vs. death, will be analyzed with...

What effect did “The Thirty Year War” have concerning religious commitment and civil and political concerning life? Then I will focus on other factors that brought Europeans Christianity to the point that it came to in the past, and look at other factors as well. Finally, I will paint a clear picture as to the effect of all the concerns that I have taken place (years of war), and look to see the positive and the negative effect all the different changes has brought. Wars of Religion These wars set the stage regarding the progress and the decline regarding Christianity, one would think that this form of action (War) would somehow aid in the advancement of Christianity (this not the case). Then religious values were regarded as of primary concern. The great thinkers on political and economic subjects usually based their ideas on religious principles. The major wars were Wars of Religion.[1] As we read from the above statement, the religious values are a major concern, even to the point that war would breakout. So it is of these values that war wages forth, but the wars that should have aided in bringing the thought of religious ideas, has brought about “The war of Religion”. It was thought that through these wars...

...beginning of the war, Abraham Lincoln felt as though the purpose of the war was to determine right and wrong and he believed that God couldn’t be on both sides. Both sides had biblical evidence that one was right while the other was wrong, but it wasn’t possible for both sides to be correct. Eventually there would have to be a winner and there would have to be a loser. Lincoln did not want the nation to go to war though, and he certainly did not want the nation to divide. He tried to reason with both the north and the south through the Emancipation and he had wanted to find some sort of compromise as opposed to fighting and he knew that too many lives would be lost in such a war. But all was in vain; there was no compromise to be made and lives were to be lost....
