Daphne
Daphne is a flower nymph and old friend of Persephone. She becomes a Nymphstagram influencer and spokesmodel for POMEGRANATE ZERO. After realizing she deserves better than Apollo, Daphne has been recently hanging out with Thanatos. Daphne is close friends with Persephone, who is also from the Mortal Realm.

Echo
Echo appeared in Episode 124 and introduces herself as the new assistant Zeus hired for his wife. At first, Hera is wary about this new addition to her office and blatantly tells her no one makes her tea because no one can properly make it. Echo displays her worth by interfering Apollo and reinforcing Hera’s status as Queen. She also seemed to impress Hera by managing to perfectly make her cup of tea.
Echo is currently Hera’s assistant. She managed to track down the owner of the Underworld Lodge Persephone stayed at, who was selling her things on OMEGABID.
