The dead did not cross the river Styx, to get into Hades, one had to pay the boatman Charon to cross the Acheron. If you paid, then the judges then decided if you would go to House of Hades: Hermes took the dead soul to Minos and his brothers, who would judge where the soul went - the "fields of asphodel."/ Islands of the Blessed/Elysian fields/Tartarus/.
