[zu-] Zeus is in the [3] basement of the [-_] house, wearing a 衤 suit that was passed down by his 祖 ancestors. He thumbs through a 且 bookshelf of books about his 祖 ancestors' past godlike deeds. Then he uses his godly magic to summon his 祖 ancestors to life, and they come out of the 且 bookshelf and appear next to him. They all wear 衤 suits that match Zeus's.
