Didn’t they call URSALA’S father Poseidon a god in that story line…. I think A&E have already used the “g” word. . .

I think so. But A and E don’t exactly use their previous work to inform their current arcs and storylines.They just hope and pray the audience wasn’t pay strict enough attention or has amnesia.

And it’s tricky with the OUAT Poseidon; just because he claimed he was a god does not mean he is one; he was not shown to be a god/have god like powers. He just stated he was one. I could claim to be  god but it doesn’t make me so; it also goes back to my example I used above with the TV show Stargate SG-1; the aliens claimed to be gods but that does not make them so.

I’m also *really* not sure how Poseidon is going to fit into this current family mess with Hades (and maybe Zeus) because in Greek mythology the world was divided into three for the three brothers: Zeus became King of the Gods and got Olympus; Poseidon got the oceans while Hades got the Underworld. As it stands in the ONCEiverse, Poseidon is a different race than Hades. I guess they could go the whole “adopted” route but…man does that mess with Greek mythology.
