Nectar and Ambrosia Covers - Living the Half-Blood Life (4)

OK, sorry, but this is the last post of this current series, Living the Half-Blood Life. It will probably come back later, though.

So to make this special, since this series was so short, I wanted to make it extra interesting, but I couldn't come up with anything. So this was supposed to be in the series The Heavenly Stuff, but oh well, they'll be others in that series.

Basically, to an "exposed" demigod [a demigod that has been exposed to the world of mythology and has thinned or broken their private Mist barrier, more explained in the next series], nectar and ambrosia would be pure, or maybe in some participating coffee shops (sorry ladies, Starbucks tends to, like, you know, not support original stuff like demigods, who are totally normal..) you can get shots of nectar in your coffee or hot chocolate. You know what they say, "If you haven't had, you haven't lived." But, there has to be a solution for demigods who think they are regular mortals to consume nectar and ambrosia without knowing. Well, there is. Nectar is usually hidden in many honey products, but so little even mortals won't burn up. But enough for a non-exposed demigod. It's also contained in orange, grape, and other juices that sort of has a glowing hue to it. Ambrosia is usually mixed in with food that your mortal mom or dad might cook, but not eat a bite of it, claiming to be allergic. Same with the mixed nectar. You know that one food or snack that you crave for every single day? Like the ones that you MUST have, or else your mouth is just gonna fill with your saliva by just thinking of it? If it is so good, you might even call it heavenly. And that, my friends, is no lie.

I'll just explain a bit about the two godly foods, but I don't want to spoil too much for the planned series. Nectar is golden, and some say it literally looks like the sun itself created it. Well, the "history" to it is partially true. Nectar is a godly drink, but also something sweet found in flowers that attracts bees. Who knows which was named after which, but it's true. Ambrosia can be in many forms. Actual loves of bread, or in forms of cookies, or little squares of whatever-you-don't-know-what-this-is, etc. It heals you. Nectar mostly gives you strength, but it can work to heal as well, when poured over a wound.

Well, this is it for the series Living the Half-Blood Life, I hope you enjoyed it!
