... okay, but mortals conquer other lands, right, so wouldn't that negate the point of making a country in the first place? Mortals fight over lots of things. Land, resources, blood feuds, what gods they're worshipping that day, a particularly attractive mortal woman... seems contradictory, if you ask me.

So Lord Uncle Poseidon gets to decide what a continent is? Doesn't he take over land sometimes too, like with typhoons and such? Or does that not matter because of the tides? I'm not really sure how the surface world works, so, forgive me if I'm getting my story wrong.

... oh! I think I'd like to use recipes, then. Gyros aren't going to make themselves, and I don't see any Head Chefs around, nor do I see suspicious Wretches who might drop their lunch if I send them back to the depths of Tartarus.
