If you're here, then you probably like mythology.  That's good.  Helpful, even.  Because mythology as you know it is about to get a bit of a twist.

In these pages, one of our best and brightest will regale you with some industry secrets, sharing the story of her first quest after becoming the mythological equivalent of a secret agent.  A person you may know from the old stories as a "hero," who, nowadays, looks more like a normal person than you'd expect.  A super buff normal person, but still.

If you're at all intrigued, read through the prologue.  You may enjoy our mini crash course.  And who knows? Maybe you'll enjoy the story after that.

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 ------------------------------------------
