For over a thousand years humanity casted the idea of the gods to the side, the very idea of the gods from Greek mythology not only existing but making their presence known once again was unheard of... until they did.

Yet there seemed to be another factor in play, as ever since the Gods had taken over there had been more and more ruins becoming unearthed, not Greek, not Roman, something far more advanced, almost alien in appearance, and whispers of forgotten gods and goddesses began to circle once more.
