"Was it not you, yourself that chose your faith? You make it seem as if I had exiled you to rule the Underworld when it was your own hand that picked your faith."
The ruler of the Olympians eyed his brother, not budging and standing in place. Showing that he has no fear of the other and if a fight were to break out, the others would quickly show up to protect their Father.
He stopped, as if considering his brother’s request, before simply replying with, “No.”
He paced before Zeus slowly, his ashen robes flowing over the gleaming floors of Olympus. Everything on Olympus was gleaming and pristine and he was decaying and decrepit.
”I sought only to see my old home. You expect to lock me in that prison of a kingdom and not miss the very mountain I was raised?”
"We all have things for which we are willing to make exceptions for. I'm sure you can find it in your heart to release her from your entrapment."

Zeus is well aware that Hades and Persephone are now married and past the abduction but the sense of betrayal remains within Zeus' heart.
"What business do you seek on Olympus? You should have called Hermes instead of making an unwanted appearance."
”And yet your daughter was the one who ate the fruit of the Underwold, binding her there. Or does that fact slip the mind of the almighty Zeus?”
He was pushing him, his very voice taunting Zeus to take action against him.
"Things could be different between you and I. Zeus does not tolerate abductions of the Olympians let alone my kin. Return my daughter if you wish to consider Mount Olympus your home once more, brother."
Zeus stared coldly at his older brother, ready to call upon some lightning if the other were to make a move.
He could himself getting under skin of the king of the Gods. His stern stoic expression shifted almost imperceptibly to one of mischief. He almost smirked.
”You would have me banished to the Underworld yet I cannot visit the home of my childhood as I please?
Zeus had been on guard just as much as Hades had. The brothers had a bit of a stressful relationship and the abduction of Persephone only helps add fuel to the fire. "Do you have any business here on Olympus? If not, I think it's time to shorten this unexpected visit."
