The disappearance of people in different parts of the central continents did not raise an alarm to the masses but it did raise an alarm to one god in particular. The God King Zeus immediately noticed that most of his children that were fathered from mortals were all taken away. The ones that were taken away were weak while only the strong ones were not taken.
The Olympian Gods have special ways to actually descend to the mortal realm and procreate with mortals. This is the reason why lots of them can actually have children with mortals in secret. The one that practically mastered this secret technique is none other than the God King Zeus. He is actually the one that has more than hundred or so children in the mortal realm because of this.
