Your Field Guide to Spotting Hermes (Mercury)
Don't blink or you might miss Hermes. He's always whizzing to and from Mount Olympus at lightning speeds. His duties as messenger of the gods and guide to the dead keep him constantly on the go. It's a good thing he's got those winged sandals, or he'd probably never get it all done.
