Episodes[]
The second episode of the fifth season ("The Price") showed and mentioned a Fury (or Erinys) ready to collect the soul of Robin Hood and would try to stop anyone else in her way. This fury was presumably Alecto.
The seventh episode of the fifth season ("Nimue") mentioned Prometheus and his fire that he gave down to mankind.[2]
In Episodes 12 - 21, Hades is a recurring character, appearing as a villain to get work Zeus' Lightning Bolt (or simply known as the Olympian Crystal). Unfortunately for him, he does not succeed and is destroyed by Zelena with the lightning bolt. For being thankful to Hook, when Killian (Hook) moves on and ascends to Mount Olympus to stay there for eternity (since he died) and completed his unfinished business in the Underworld (which was a place for people with unfinished business) and was not a bad person so did not descend to the "Worse Place"[3]. Zeus thanked Hook for helping kill the god of the Underworld and transported him from Mount Olympus back to Storybrooke, alive.
The first episode of the seventh season of Once Upon a Time is titled "Hyperion Heights".[4] This may or may not be a reference to Hyperion from Greek Mythology.
