asclepius epione family godsandgoddesses greekmythology healing hope medusa mythandlegend podaleirios retelling snakes

[Completed] Young Medusa was lost...broken. All the plans she had made, her dreams for the future, were shattered now. She just wanted to be left alone. To be free in her cave. Safe from the ones who would hurt her. 

Was it lonely? Sometimes.  
Didn't she miss the sun? Unbearably so.

But she needed to protect herself and protect others from her. And if that meant she could no longer stand under the warm rays of the sun, then she would endure the darkness.

No one was going to come protect a snake-headed monster. 

Right?

BLOOD ON THE ROSES // Sylus 18+ FF by Beatitudinem_19

He thought he was the last of his kind... He feared he would never again share the sky with anyone else. He feared he would die alone on a planet ruled by humans. Thanks to the storm, Sylus found a dragon cave in which a blue and gold dragon hid from the world. Sylus would manage to get her into his abyss, where he would have to teach the young dragon what the world is like today. Naira. That's what she began to call herself. Her parents never had a name, but she liked it. She liked the idea of having a name. So she gave herself one. Just before humans began slaughtering all the dragons on Philos, and their species was on the verge of extinction, her parents sealed her in a shell of lava and fragments of protocor that put Naira into a long sleep, which only another dragon can break.

Hades and Persephone by Teah09

Persephone has already been kidnapped by Hades, her unwanted and unexpected suitor. Demeter has already cast a famine on all the humans in her grief. Hades struggles to win Persephone over...but perhaps Persephone has always been meant to be with him, and she wasn't an innocent as she was thought she was... Moderate explicit parts. *not finished* "Look, Persephone, you're a reasonable Goddess, more reasonable than most. You have to understand I was not born the Lord of the Underworld. The title was appointed to me because I was the unlucky one. My job is just as important as my brother's jobs. I wasn't selected because of my cruel ways but now because of the way people speak of me and fear me now I am the cruel one whether or not I like it. Do you honesty think it is fair that it should work that way? People take one look at me and assume I'm the devil." Persephone crouches back in her seat. I realize I am standing and seat myself, trying to calm myself. "Do you honestly think that being in charge of the dead and judging them makes me undeserving of love, of a wife? I'm doomed to be exiled down here. I don't even have the sun to keep me warm, Persephone. You're all the sun I have..." *This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.

Heaven On Earth by LGLministry101

It seems like just yesterday I was saved. Not knowing what to do next or where I should go. Little by little I had to find my way and put together the lessons I was taught from different sources to seemingly lead a holy life. My supreme happiness came from when I found Jesus. Little did I know all I had to do was dwell in his heart and he would provide me with the wisdom I need and show me the things I could only fantasize about. Things like these seemed to me too precious to keep hidden, and that's when I knew I just had to share Who He is to the whole world. Visions, testimonies, miracles and more came knocking at my door leading me into a dose of Heaven on Earth. Blue Roses for My Bride series: Book 1 NOTE I am not a writer, but I do enjoy writing. I learn as I go where writing a book is concerned. So the book has a lot of flaws, typos and words may not be in the correct order. It may be a finished book but there is still lots of work to do on it.

So when you do read it, please let the Lord guide you on discernment and help you to get on the right part with him.

Heart Of Stone - Male!Medusa by Calintha

A body covered by scars like your skin had been painted upon with a blade, you must find a way to heal your equally scarred heart. But how much healing can be done when the only one willing to look upon you without flinching is a monster, one you can't even look upon without chancing your own death? At least, if you knew who you were truly looking at. Because he was the last one you would have expected to find hidden upon the islands of Greece. Myths and legends weren't supposed to be real.

The Realm of Darkness by bookobsessedblonde

"You shall travel to the darkest veil To repair a tear, you cannot fail Love will be lost, and love will be gained A child of darkness will be framed You shall return to a victory won That will signify the ending sun." Everything started when my mom (human) met my dad (Erebus, primordial god of darkness). They didn't fall in love, but they did have me. Hi, I'm Alexander Douglas. I began life as an orphan, but now I'm living the dream as a demigod. Hades built a camp for children of Underworld deities like myself just outside his palace called Camp DuMort. Unfortunately for me, I was chosen to go on a quest to fix a tear in Erebus (the place, I know it's confusing). Can you imagine that, a thirteen-year-old saving the entire Underworld? I brought my friends along too. Sabrina Glade, a daughter of Hecate, and Peter Haynes, a son of Morpheus. At least I have them with me... or what's left of them. ________ Hey everyone! I just want to say a big shoutout to @LoNeedsSomeQ for my awesome cover picture!

HOPE by rosegolden27

It was a bright, summer day. Mr. and Mrs. Evans were both in the hospital, ready to give birth. But they were really scared. It's their first child so Mrs. Evans was really afraid of how it might go. "It's okay, honey. It'll be okay." Mr. Evans tried to reassure his wife, stroking her head soothingly. "But what if the baby comes upside down? What if there's something wrong with her? What if it hurts?" She asked questions so quickly that Mr. Evans doesn't even have time to answer any of them. "The baby will be fine. Don't worry. It won't hurt as well. It'll be over before you even know it." But no matter what he said, she was shaking with fear and panic. The doctor came towards them. "Do we have a name for her?" She asks as they wait for a contraction. Mr. Evans looked between the doctor and his wife before answering, "Actually, we haven't-" "Hope" Mrs. Evans looked up at him, smiling. "Hope Evans." ~~*~~ Hope Evans lost more in her life at such a young age. She lost every dream she has ever had, lost everything she held dearly and she lost everyone she ever loved. She had to begin all over again. Only to be fallen right back down. Will she be happy again? Will she be able to dream again? But most importantly, will she be able to love again? Despite everything she faced, she hopes to gain everything she once loved. Some say that hope is just a delusion. Is it?

Destiny Waits for No Man by CarolineJMoon

Keeta was born at the beginning of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt. She was the only daughter of a nobleman that barely made it through. When she turned sixteen years old, her parents gave her to the temples so that maybe one day she could become a powerful priestess and bring good fortune to their family. Keeta didn't mind. Four years into her studies she was noticed by a young man. It was different for her. Never before had any man taken notice of her. He showered her with gifts and rare desert flowers. She wondered why he was so persistent about her even though she was training to become a priestess. Then God Set killed his brother Osiris and his brother's son Horus was out for revenge. Chaos reined down on the mortal plains. The Goddess Isis protected those within her temple the best she could but some worshippers perished due to Set's wrath. All save her. The man that had such affection towards her returned just before the final battle. With everything happening, Keeta didn't realize that the man was actually Set until Isis appeared after he kissed her and revealed him. Isis felt Keeta betrayed her by sleeping with the man who killed her husband. Before Set could stop her, Isis branded Keeta with the Symbol of Eternal Life cursing her. After, Horus banned Set to the Red Desert and for over a century that's where he remained. Keeta walked amongst the mortals and watched as they all perished as she remained the same. It wasn't until after Set was free of the desert did the truth finally come out and by then it was too late. Isis couldn't reverse the curse. Isis then gifted her with an Anubis pup. Amis, the grandson of Set. He aged the same as any God but preferred the look of a pup unless Keeta was in trouble. Then he took on the look of his father along with the powers that came with his full grown self. When he wasn't protecting Keeta, he was often found on his cushy pillow dreaming of sweet donuts.
