A modern play version of the Iliad by Homer. This is mostly accurate to the story, but it is written with humility, it is evident to me that this is not a theft of Homer's masterpiece but an homage to it, this text lacks the monotonous elements of the Iliad and focuses only on the more interesting aspects of the play.

THE ODYSSEY (Completed)
The Odyssey (Greek: Ὀδύσσεια Odýsseia] in Classical Attic) is one of two major ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer. It is, in part, a sequel to the Iliad, the other work ascribed to Homer. The Odyssey is fundamental to the modern Western canon, and is the second-oldest extant work of Western literature; the Iliad is the oldest. Scholars believe the Odyssey was composed near the end of the 8th century BC, somewhere in Ionia, the Greek coastal region of Anatolia. The poem mainly focuses on the Greek hero Odysseus (known as Ulysses in Roman myths), king of Ithaca, and his journey home after the fall of Troy. It takes Odysseus ten years to reach Ithaca after the ten-year Trojan War. In his absence, it is assumed Odysseus has died, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus must deal with a group of unruly suitors, the Mnesteres (Greek: Μνηστῆρες) or Proci, who compete for Penelope's hand in marriage.Complete

Fated Tides
An EPIC: The Musical-inspired Odyssey of Love, Gods, and Destiny She was a daughter of the sea, beauty woven by fate-and cursed by a jealous goddess. When her ship was torn apart by an unnatural storm, Y/N lost everything. Stranded on an unmarked island, her only crime was a beauty so radiant it stirred Aphrodite's wrath. Alone, hunted by the gods, she had all but given up hope-until a weary king named Odysseus stumbled upon her shores. He saw her-not just her beauty, but her fear, her strength, her silence-and took her with him on the final leg of his journey home. But Ithaca is no longer a place of peace. Suitors infest the palace, and the kingdom is on the brink of ruin. Y/N joins Odysseus in the fight to reclaim his throne, her dagger as sharp as the grief she still carries. When the war ends, and she stands before the queen and the prince of Ithaca-Telemachus-something shifts. One glance. One breath. One heartbeat. And everything changes. As the son of a hero and the girl cursed by a goddess are drawn together, love blooms quietly in the cracks of chaos. But the gods are not done with her. Aphrodite does not forget. And love, no matter how pure, must prove itself against the will of Olympus. In a world ruled by gods and glory, can love survive the tide of fate? Or will a jealous goddess claim the girl the sea could not drown?Complete

Brief sexuality, characters are stated to have had sex, nothing shown on page. Characters kiss on page. Some crude dialogue regarding a character's sexuality.

THE ILIAD (Completed)
The Iliad (sometimes referred to as the Song of Ilion or Song of Ilium) is an ancient Greek epic poem in dactylic hexameter, traditionally attributed to Homer. Set during the Trojan War, the ten-year siege of the city of Troy (Ilium) by a coalition of Greek states, it tells of the battles and events during the weeks of a quarrel between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles. The Iliad is paired with something of a sequel, the Odyssey, also attributed to Homer. Along with the Odyssey, the Iliad is among the oldest extant works of Western literature, and its written version is usually dated to around the 8th century BC. Recent statistical modelling based on language evolution gives a date of 760-710 BC.Complete
