of the Cyclopes are under the ocean, which gives Poseidon some influence over the makers
of his brother's lightning. Zeus believes Poseidon has taken the master bolt, and is now
secretly having the Cyclopes build an arsenal of illegal copies, which might be used to topple
Zeus from his throne. The only thing Zeus wasn't sure about was which hero Poseidon used
to steal the bolt. Now Poseidon has openly claimed you as his son. You were in New York
over the winter holidays. You could easily have snuck into Olympus. Zeus believes he has
found his thief.".
