I want to redo Hades's and Nyx's, but here's our boy Prometheus's altar! I don't have the space to make a full sized altar for him YET because I don't want to shrink the space I have dedicated to Hades or Nyx, so this will have to do for now...

(Pictures are large. They were taken on my phone and I forgot to crop and am too lazy to do so now...)

𓈒　　　💗　　King　,　Prometheus　𖦹 ♰ ◞ Overview 　𓏏　His attempts to better the lives of his creation brought him into conflict with Zeus. Firstly he tricked the gods out of the best portion of the sacrificial feast, acquiring the meat for the feasting of man. Then, when Zeus withheld fire, he stole it from heaven and delivered it to mortal kind hidden inside a fennel-stalk. As punishment for these rebellious acts, Zeus ordered the creation of Pandora (the first woman) as a means to deliver misfortune into the house of man, or as a way to cheat mankind of the company of the good spirits. Prometheus meanwhile, was arrested and bound to a stake on Mount Kaukasos (Caucasus) where an eagle was set to feed upon his ever-regenerating liver (or, some say, heart). Generations later the great hero Herakles (Heracles) came along and released the old Titan from his torture.
