The Gigantes and the Battle of Olympus
The return of daylight meant that the fighting could begin for real. The Gigantes began their assault on Olympus, and the gods were ready to respond. Hermes was able to sneak close enough to Hippolytus to bring him down. Meanwhile, Poseidon was locked in battle with another one of the Gigantes - Palibotes. With growing frustration, Poseidon summoned the strength of all the waves and tides and flung a piece of the island itself at Palibotes,. trapping the giant beneath the rocks for all eternity.
