You're welcome.

I worship the Greek pantheon while following pagan practices. This is where my necklace comes into play. Wait, so you're praying to Zeus and Poseidon? I think so. Riley, if you can add some context on that, yeah. Let's freaking go. I was a fan of Percy Jackson, too. I mean, the Greek gods are like, it's lit, you know? It's a cool storyline. It's the Avengers.
