"United in birth with their other half, the prophesied one shall take up the mantle and defeat those who dishonour our line and that of the Gods. They will be the new rider - even greater than their forbearer". When Ella and Louise inherit a mysterious chest from their great grandmother, they have no idea  that it'll lead to an adventure involving flying horses, lots of boats, the Greek gods, a crazy, psychotic Scottish business man with a strange fascination with 'Despicable me' oh, and with becoming a god, but I guess when you come from a family where a prophecy is part of your heritage, your life's not going to be exactly... normal and after all they have each other to get through it all.

Yours Truly - Canis Minor by SamanthaModestha
50 parts Complete
Yours truly - Canis Minor There is a myth that tells a story about two constellations in our night sky. It tells the story of Canis Minor, the fox named Teumessian, and Canis Major, the wolf named Laelaps. It is told that the two of them were cursed to stone after the god Zeus ordered Laelaps to find and kill Teumessian. But because of their unique qualities, it became an infinite game of cat and mouse. The myth tells that the two of them reap havoc throughout the universe and it is the reason why the gods imprisoned them in stone. It is partially true, but with a slightly different ending. Teumessian and Laelaps fell in love and it infuriated Zeus, as they did not obey a command of the gods. That is the reason why the gods curse them. The gods did not know that Teumessian was pregnant with twin daughters. The two daughters always with their mother only know of the broken cries of their mother's soul. So they came up with a plan, a parent tral. But when they try to free their parents something goes wrong. As both daughters decide to guide their parents to the same place: Earth. One child to guide the father and one child to guide the mother. The youngest of the daughters gets scared and loses her way. Sending the father in a life of solitude and the mother in an infinite loop of life and death. Because of this, Laelaps roams the earth endlessly and lives through several civilizations. He always meets his one true love, but without the guidance of their daughter, she is doomed to die. The oldest of the twins watches over them the only way she can think of as she takes her place as the goddess of the moon. Carving a path through lives where the two meet over and over again. Finally, the youngest of the twins called Adhara finds her way into her mother's womb. Reuniting the sisters and the final plan sets in motion.

A retelling of the myth of Hades and Persephone -- For as long as Persephone can remember it has always been her and her mother. Until one day, a stranger appears, causing her to have unfamiliar feelings-her world changes when her mother persuades her to go to the Underworld with him. In a place much different than the sheltered one she is used to, she will learn things about herself that were unknown even to her. Will she learn to embrace them or shy away from them altogether? Hades has always been content to remain in the Underworld, ruling over the dead just as intended. He learned to settle for what he had been given long ago. But after an unplanned visit to his sister, he may have just changed his mind. Will his new guest embrace the darkness of his world, or will he remain within it alone for eternity? #4 in Hades and Persephone category 7/14/2019 ***Update!
