Set during the Peloponnesian War, Athens and Sparta are battling their differences. While the leader of Sparta argues uncompromisingly with the leader of Athens, the Spartan leader's son, Andreas, is sent on a mission to steal supplies from Athens, unarmed. While running through the capital of Greece, he meets Athens' finest archer, Alexi. Believing that an unarmed man should not be killed, Alexi decides not to shoot the arrow he had aimed at the Spartan.
But when troubles of trusting a Spartan arise, Alexi finds himself in a predicament that will change the course of his life forever, especially when the two start to develop an unexpected romance the more time they spend together. But with Andreas being Spartan and Alexi being Athenian, how will the two come to love while their cities are at war?
Their predicament only grows more complicated when the elderly Athenian leader offers the lead position to one of his most trusted soldiers, Alexi, to lead Athens into victory and stop the war once and for all. Will Alexi accept this fortunate opportunity? Or will conflict of interest initiate Athens' path to downfall?

Set Me As A Seal ✓
A time-traveling god. A mortal stuck in Ancient Greece. They have always been able to hear each other's thoughts, across time and space; the only problem is, they were never supposed to meet. Until they did. And it unravelled the balance of everything. ₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪ The immortal Greek god Evgenis' only job is to travel through time, making sure humanity stays on its course. This is what he was born to do. He was meant to be machine-like, cold, and detached from humanity - ready to invoke bloodshed as needed. His ability to follow through with his duty, however, is disrupted when he forms a mysterious internal bond with a mortal. You see, the Goddess of Love had a different idea for her son's future. Seeing the cruelty of the gods around her, she formed the unborn Evgenis with a secret gift: an eternal inner bond with a mortal. She chose Tharos - named for the strength of his heart - an Ancient Greek villager living an unassuming, simple life. This connection, she prayed, would keep Evgenis' moral compass and conscience strong. He would not end up like the others. No one could anticipate, though, just how powerful and disruptive this bond would grow to be. ------------------------------------------ "Set me as a seal upon your heart... for love is as strong as death." - Song of Solomon, 6:8 ------------------------------------------Complete

TROY: The War Of Gods & Mortals
"Is there no one else?" - Achilles "All men must die, but we are not men. We are Amazons." - Princess Diana When the grandson of Nereus and the granddaughter of Zeus cross swords, war erupts, and only one will live to tell the tale. Inspired by the movie Troy, this story reimagines the clash of warriors, gods, and destiny. For decades, Agamemnon, King of Mycenae, has waged war to unite Greece under his rule. Only Thessaly remains unconquered. Meanwhile, his brother, Menelaus, King of Sparta, seeks peace with Troy, the last great rival to Greek dominance. But peace is shattered when Paris, prince of Troy, seduces Helen, Queen of Sparta, and takes her back to his city. Enraged, Menelaus calls upon Agamemnon for vengeance. Seeing an opportunity to expand his power, Agamemnon assembles an army of 50,000 warriors and launches a thousand ships toward Troy. Among them is Achilles, son of the sea nymph Thetis and King Peleus, a warrior of unmatched skill and fury. A demigod with the blood of the gods coursing through his veins, Achilles fights for Greece, yet his disdain for Agamemnon threatens to unravel the fragile alliance. But the Greeks are not the only ones with divine blood on their side. Troy is protected by Diana, daughter of Athena and the mortal King Priam. A fierce Amazonian commander, Diana is a warrior born of wisdom and war, trained to lead, to conquer, and to protect her people at any cost. When she faces Achilles, their rivalry is instant, two demigods destined to clash in a battle that will shake the heavens. Swords will shatter. Blood will spill. And amidst the chaos of war, something forbidden begins to ignite between them, passion as dangerous as the battlefield itself. Will Achilles bring Troy to its knees, or will Diana prove that wisdom and strength together are mightier than rage? This story is inspired by Troy but takes its own path, weaving mythology, war, and fate into an epic tale of love, honor, and destiny. Lewa Kulture 2021©
