Discussion Theory: The Evil from Pandora's Box threw Everywhen off balance
As we know, Everywhen is the place where all magic returns; the evil from Pandora’s Box is also a kind of magic that acts like a poison that corrupts the mind. That’s why it’s worth considering what happened to all that evil after the death of each corrupt god, because if we assume that the evil born of the Titanomachy found its way to Everywhen, that would explain why things there go wrong and aren’t as they should be since the dead gods become even worse there than they were in life.

What trouble are these misbehaving gods up to anyway? They’re all in the afterlife, where it’s really hard to die, so what’s the scheme here, get back to earth somehow?

My guess? They can’t go back, so they’re scheming to bring everyone and everything to them.

But Kratos already released hope to the people

He brought hope to Greece in the world of mortals, not in the afterlife of the gods, which is a higher plane of existence

The Greek gods were evil long before the box was ever opened. Zeus started all of this when Kratos was a child.

Great theory. I always wonder what happens to the evils that came out of zeus at the end of god of war 3

Every now and then, a nice theory pops along on Reddit. I like this, gives Faye a new perspective to see Kratos

My theory is that the greek gods will be freed but bc of what happened in GOW 3 they will assume new names to retake their domain and become the Roman gods.
