Additional Notes

 

what is canon?

Canon refers to a body of work that is universally accepted as an official part of the story/universe. In this case, what we refer to as ‘canon’ is what we consider universally accepted in the universe of Lore Olympus.

Lore Olympians considers canon to be only the events in the comics, Q&As Rachel has done publicly, and things she has stated on her official social media channels.

Any insight she provides in her chitty chats or on her Patreon are for paid subscribers only, and therefore we do not reference it or include it here.

We are also aware that Rachel sometimes states contradicting information. Therefore, to maintain consistency and stay true to what she’s planned, we will consider canon what she confirms at the most present time.
