"Frankly, I do not think they were ever confined to the West." The dark-haired girl sipped her coffee, looking as though she were mulling over how best to continue the elaboration of her thoughts. It was a topic, in truth, that she had given not inconsiderable consideration to, albeit on a broader scale. History and mythology were an... Odd blend. "Consider it from this perspective. In the eyes of most of the world, our ancestors are myths. Nothing more. The Greeks worshiped them, and when the Greeks stopped doing so, they became regarded as what they always were; stories. From this view, it is easy to see why the Greek view of them never spread."

"But in reality, they [i]exist.[/i] Entities with immense levels of power that can be called quite literally godlike. Nothing could restrain them geographically, let alone the petty boundaries of mortal men and women. In fact the Romans adopted variants on the Greek myths for themselves, and spread them much wider across the Roman Empire. So they [i]did[/i] spread." She paused, and sipped again. "So, in truth, there are two possibilities."

"Firstly, they [i]did[/i] spread from the very start. They simply never interacted as closely with the world elsewhere, or were worshiped under different names. Or, secondly, they [i]were[/i] limited. But if they truly are on the same level of power as they like to claim, mere national borders could not limit them. Something would have kept them confined to their region of worship. Something powerful enough to give a god reason not to roam about. In other words, something on or above their own level of power." Athena's daughter shrugged, tapping a finger on the side of her mug.

"I do not know which is accurate, or even if I am on the right path of consideration. Mother won't tell me. But it makes one wonder if perhaps the Greek gods are not the only ones that were real."
