First, the comment that Prince Marcus is actualy Zeus is starting to look more and more plausible, particularly now that a conflict between Zeus and Hades has been canonically introduced into Once. In greek mythos, there was not really a conflict, as the 3 brothers (Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon) divided the 3 realms between them with no one really having an upper hand. While this is true, let us not forget that Zeus esentally becomes King of the Gods, whereas Poseidon and Hades wind up with lesser positions. It is also often implied that Hades and Zeus are not on the best terms, as Hades doesn't even want a throne on Olympus (although like his five siblings he should have one; admittedly Hestia also gives up her throne as she would rather just sit by the hearth of Olympus and tend to the flames), and no one seems very happy when Hades takes Persephone to be his bride, even though Zeus and Posiden not only have wives, but also sleep with many other women and sire many other children.
