See he would have defended himself if he could, NOT TO MENTION HIS MANGLED UP LEG!!! What your not getting is its completely null and void because Zeus is king. LIke I said, if Apollo is so fast why did he not defend himself from Zeus? Actually in Mythology Poseidon was turned mortal by Zeus as well. Just like Hera cursing Leto, who is much older than her.

I can agree that Hephaestus has week legs(though I could counter it by asking how he holds his massive body and relatively large constructions with weak legs), but the specfic example of being thrown off Olympus your using contains no relevancy to a fight(and once again, it happened to Apollo THREE times as well). There is no proof when Zeus turned Apollo mortal, there was no way Apollo COULD defend himself physically. Because Zeus could have easily have just pointed at him to turn him mortal, there would be no physical contact. What I'm saying about Hephaestus getting thrown off Olympus, is that if Hephaestus is as fast as your saying why didn't he move away when Zeus was going to grab him. It has stated a bunch of times that Hephaestus can't move fast, so what your saying about him supporting his body with his weak legs doesn't help your argument.(Also I just noticed your a new editor, good job man!) Uh not defending yourself doesn't mean you can't.LIke Hephaestus hadalready been thrown of Mt.Olympus why would he care about a second time. When your real life parent disciplines you, do you punch them in the face? No. That doesn't mean your weak or incapable of defending yourself.
