He can see anyone or anything he wishes on the Earth, in the sea or in heaven. You could often find him in the middle of the sun or creating monsters from taking a bit of fire from the sun and saying something like: “I want a dragon”. He travelled in a golden chariot drawn by 4 winged horses called : Aetheon, Pyrois, Phlegon and Eous.
