Trick question, right ?

We're talking about Zeus again.

"There were four divisions of the Greek afterlife.
  1. Fields of Punishment - Where souls would go if they committed crimes.

  2. Fields of Asphodel - This was the place for souls who'd achieved relatively little in their life. They did not commit crimes, but did not achieve anything great or worthwhile.

  3. Elysian Fields (more commonly known as Elysium) - A place for the righteous and the virtuous, where all was good, and the souls led an easy afterlife.
  4. Isles of the Blessed (or the Fortunate Isles) - This place was reserved for those who were reborn/reincarnated thrice, and were worthy of Elysium in all three lives. This place was essentially "eternal paradise"."

Nothing changed.
