I thought that this better place only revealed itself as Olympus to Hercules, since he was a demi-god who had to complete 12 labors. Once Hercules had defeated the Cerberus, he then got to join his dad on Mount Oympus. Maybe Meg got to go with him, because she’s Herc’s love interest now.

I hope *twitch* that that’s the case, but I feel like we need to see someone else “move on to a better place” before we can say it’s definitely the case.

Part of me would rather the “better place” appear differently for each person, depending on their origin/beliefs. But on the other hand, it seems to be that everyone, no matter their origin/beliefs, ends up in the Underworld of Greek myth in particular, (which already doesn’t make sense), so it wouldn’t really make sense for the “better place” to be somewhere not also from Greek myth.

Basically, they’ve tried to mash up characters and specific cultures that shouldn’t be mashed with each other, and it’s become a hot mess.
