So were the Fates the ones actually in control? What was Zeus' master plan?

nothing, neither fate or the gods, is considered an absolute power in homer (the greeks understood the world - only death is inevitable).

Reading him, you see a philosophy which ascribed gods as figures who do things with no tangible agent. They universalised their experience, which was that living beings engage in action, and hence, they thought, all action is a result of living beings, this meant lightning was Zues, eureka Athena, etc etc.

This gay, solipsistic form of syncretism is so jewish.

Death is a god, though.
