''but we see in other series of Rick Riordan some don't accepting it so easy even believing in multiple gods and even in human history it wasn't always so easy. ''

As for politeist religions and mythologies, it is not so much a mind blown. Because as I said, there are multiple gods in these religions and mythologies. There are a lot of similarities. In the Greeks/Roman/Egyptian/Norse mythologies, gods have connection with each other. They're not totaly separated. It can be hard to except it first, but it wouldn't be so much a mind blown or shock if people finds out that they're exist in the same universe. In humans history, there was a connection between those deities, they weren't totaly separated from each other. Dionysus even traveled Egypt and met with some gods and goddeses in here. Phineas (Neptune's son) was married with Cleopatra. Most people were sees Aphrodite and Isis as some goddess sometimes and some people from Egyptian culture were came to see Oracle Delphi for some advice.

Most people are sees them as characters from fairy tales, yes. But in the Samirah situation, she learned and found out that they're not the characters from the fairy tales, they're real and exist. I mean, she can believe what she is right to her, or truth to her. But her beliefs change the facts and reality. beliefs here what means it changes from person to person, you said, but come to think of it,

You are an ateist, and you don't believe in God or gods, you only accept facts, reality and science. You do not want to believe, you want to find the truth and learn. You're maybe a scientist, or you're maybe don't believe religions and highest being's existence. Some day, a person comes and this person tells to you, Greek/Egyptian/Nordic gods are exist. You don't want to believe this person, because you're an ateist and it's mind blown but more like...it's proves that you're life has been a lie for a long time. And then you're asking, So, the God or Allah, are they exist too?, and then this person says to you that: ''Yes, they're maybe exist too. But for another people. For me, only the multiple gods exist and I don't believe in Allah or God, and some people believe in Allah while they're also child of Loki at the same time. It's about beliefs, what you are believing is the truth. and you later says that But, It's not just beliefs, I spent my whole life for science, I spent my time for reality and for real facts. And you're saying to me right now that, It's about beliefs? So, what do I have to do now? I, now, knowing that gods and God are exist, how can I live with that? My whole life was actually a lie for this whole time!, I, now, learned this. What about my non-beliefs? It's is not gonna change the facts, if I'm believing or not believing in something, this is nothing and just not about beliefes, this is about reality and facts. and then this person says, Dude, calm down. I mean...They're exist for some people and they're not exist for some people...It's no big deal. You can still choose to not to believe. and then This is what I'm talking about.'' you say. ''I don't want to choose to not believe, I want to find the facts and truths. Believing something doesn't change anything. You can believe whatever you want and this is can not change the truths and reality.''

Well, that was ridiculous. But, I was trying to say that, beliefs are not gonna change the real things and facts. You can believe in something. You can believe that your love life and relationship is true and real, when it's just and illusion and unhealty and messed up. You can believe that you're an Assasin, when you basically have Assasin Creed game fantesies. You can believe that your family life is not a mess and totaly fine, when you're always crying in the basement because of your parents always fighting with each other, You can believe whatever you want and it's still not gonna change the reality and truth. Same with religions, Samirah can think and believe that Norse gods are created by Allah, but it's not gonna change the real thing.
