Began writing: January 1st, 2021 UPDATE: This is now officially complete. Longest work yet of the series...it might help to read the other stories, but not required. (To know that Orraca and Beatriz are the ancestors of Ida and the others.) It's more of an alternate history than historical fiction, with regards to Orraca and Beatriz's relationship and their society's acceptance of it. I understand marriage isn't the be-all and end-all of relationships, and many gay couples co-habited back in the day...but this is an alternate imagining of a world that was more accepting. These Medieval characters (and my writing of them) is semi-inspired by Don Quixote and Blackadder. I've been writing about giantesses for years, mostly in my teenage writings, but reworked them in Cyclopes, as there's no stories about female Cyclopes in Greek mythology, and wanted to give it a shot. Also includes some characters from my other works, such as Death and Ha-Yoon Kwak. (Though some of Kwak's trauma was already dealt with in 'The Righteous Perish'.) Atria doesn't mention her war crime as it is nothing to a sadistic Cyclop such as herself. As with all my work, I didn't mean for any characters to be similar to any from popular media; they are rebooted versions of ones I created as a teenager. But if that happened, it was wholeheartedly unintentional. (Try to) enjoy!
