Story/History:[]
- Hellas is a thriving and bustling Grecian city that lies west of New Thalos. Boasting of a new democratic society, Hellas prides itself on being a free country, and includes in its populace peasants, free citizens, and those of noble birth, as well as well-known learned philosophers. This modern seaport specializes in agriculture and fishing and has a huge export and import industry, as well as an impressive aqueduct system. It is even rumored that the gods themselves live in this teeming city!

General Zone Strategies:[]
- Be careful of the Whirlwind death trap up from the Acropolis walkway: you can go up, but you cannot descend.
- Hera and Zeus reside in an !magic room. Hera is aggro. Zeus entropies, resists physical damage and qheals.
- From the Entrance Hall, open the NW door to Apollo's Chamber and proceed N to Ares' Court of War to obtain the godly key. Use a basic cleric/warrior setup to take him down or a petrifying bard, as he's resist magic, resist combat_proc.
- Returning to the entrance hall, open the NE door to Artemis' Lodge to get to Aphrodite's Boudoir. Artemis and Aphrodite are hidden mobs.
- Unlock the secret door NW with the godly key to access Zeus and Hera's Sanctum. Hera can be dispatched fairly easily, but Zeus will require a grapple chain, striking sohei or bstabbing T30 to counter his defender procs.
- During quests, you'll need to navigate the aqueducts. The aqueduct sub-area is a small circle running counter-clockwise. There is a cistern up in the far counter-clockwise corner from the entrance.
The Aqueducts Above Hellas [ Exits: s ] A wooden gateway stands here, blocking the flow of water. A lever is attached to the gate here.
If you are standing in a room without a path counter-clockwise, enter the command:
>climb gateway You climb the gateway. You manage to get a handhold on the gateway, and haul yourself over it to the other side.
This will allow you to advance against the flow of water and proceed counter-clockwise around the mini-zone toward the cistern in the northwest section. To return to the beginning of the aqueduct maze, pull any lever.
