Hermes' allies are really all of the other Olympians except Hera, who was jealous of any offspring born from Zeus' union with his many mistresses.

Hades must have been annoyed with Hermes because Hermes stole the Helmet of Invisibility from him and took Persephone away to Olympus every year. Don't you think that Persephone and her mother Demeter might have appreciated this?
