A pseudo-medieval European setting inspired by Ancient Greek religion.
Athanasia watches with painful clarity as the Obelia Empire teeters on the brink of collapse.
Her father, Emperor Claude, is holding the empire together on his own.
Though she is a princess, she realizes that when true crisis arrives, she is almost powerless to help.
Just when everything seems beyond her reach, fate leads her to an unexpected encounter-
the god of wine from Greek religion.
He admits that he is Bacchus, yet asks her to call him "Lucas," a name that sounds far more like Apollo's.
He is neither the mad god of rumor nor the harbinger of inevitable tragedy spoken of in legend.
Instead, he merely lays reality before Athanasia with unsettling calm.
Before the empire falls, can Athanasia truly grow-
grow into someone who can stand beside her father and salvage what remains of her homeland?
PS:Beacause Lucas is set as a Ancient Greek god, he is probably around 3,000 years old and would be much more aloof and composed than in the original story.
