Crete storie

Rhadamanthe and Minos, the twin sons of the Minoan High Priestess, live where the sea is so blue it dwarfs the sky. This place is a paradise of small islands, where their people dance with the gods and adorn their palaces with flowers and colorful paintings. They live a peaceful life until their daily routine is disrupted by the arrival of a mysterious individual: Polaris, from the North Sea. While everyone believes this man is lost in the Aegean Sea, far from his people, the golden-haired traveler threatens the balance of the region. His designs have driven him to gather an armada of sea peoples, as terrifying as a sea monster-a hydra-ready to devour all civilization like a ravenous beast. A determined people, resolved to follow him to the realm of the dead... Trigger Warnings: This story contains references to psychotropic plants used by oracles, alcohol consumption, and customs derived from Minoan spiritual practices, which differ from those of our time. Themes involving violence against women, as well as contexts of war and political maneuvering, are also present. The story includes an MM enemy-to-lovers romance with a slow burn (no dark romance). The themes of difficult and brutal motherhood are also present. You can send me a private note for more information on specific triggers.

A story about two boys falling in love in Crete, Greece in 1955 where that wasn't allowed. This story is written in my native language and then translated it so sorry if it has mistakes. Also it's the first story I ever wrote (11years old)

It had been six years since the invasion that Nina lost the only family she had left. They Crows came with advanced weaponry, new poisons, and a cataclysmic ideology. They chose the few who would submit, beg and damn the rest; eliminating everyone else they could find. They lined up families and slaughtered them together, executing and enslaving. The remains of humanity were forced into hiding, opportunists, waiting to reclaim their world.

Anastasia's whole life has been anything but interesting. But when Anna overhears a mysterious conversation given by her aunts, she doesn't think much of it until strange things start happening that hints what she had overheard makes sense. Then, some strange yet cute boy shows up at her home claiming she is the princess of Crete and that she must go with him; to a better hiding place before the evil sorceress can find her on her sixteenth birthday. Rowan has been given a mission; retrieve the princess and bring her back to Crete. He was instructed that she would be safer there on her sixteenth birthday. Originally, the plan had been to keep her in an isolated town in Texas but the sorceress might have found her location by now and is just biding her time. I know this story may sound cheesy. I thought so too when I read through this synopses that I wrote but it really isn't all that bad. I just wasn't sure how to summarize it since there is so much that happens in it. But I promise that if you give it a a try you will not be disappointed.

Feedback needed, please comment.

Crete is Greece's biggest island situated in the southern Aegean Sea adjoining Europe, Asia and Africa on three continents. Crete is a country of excellent history that can be traced back to the first legends and myths. According to Greek mythology, Crete was the birthplace of Zeus "The Father of Gods and Humans" who later kidnapped Phoenicia Europa's lovely nymph and relocated it to Crete. She then gave birth to Minos through marriage bliss, who then became the "King of the Minoans" and King of the first European civilization named after his mom Europa, who gave her name to the continent known as Europe.

A year has passed since Tom met resistance fighters against the military dictatorship in Greece, was interrogated and threatened by the secret police, made new friends and made a promise to Sophia. Hardly does he land in Athens again in July 1970 when he and his friends receive their first courier assignment for the resistance group, which takes him to Crete and entails many unpleasant surprises. Their assignments become more and more dangerous, which welds the group ever tighter around Tom, Nikos, and Sophia. In northern Greece, Tom and Nikos are ambushed by Albanian agents, and on the concentration camp island of Leros they are again targeted by the secret police. Tom soon realizes that things are often not what they seem. At the same time he realizes that he is in a dilemma: he loves Sophia, but he also loves Nikos. Will he have to make a decision? In the second book of "The Right People" series, the action picks up pace. Adventure and danger lurk around every corner, but Tom and his friends take on the challenge, now joined by Dave the Englishman, four Australian students and two pairs of German siblings. I'd like to take John Piccone for the time and energy he spent editing this book.
