The Last Nymph
Maera was a nymph. Or was she? She claimed to be a genuine Nereid from antiquity. Right out of the pages of Greek mythology. Well, that's what she told Doc Roussos who lived alone on the island. Kalamos was remote and sparsely populated. An exquisite pine-covered jewel that rose steep and majestic out of the turquoise and cobalt Mediterranean. Maera would visit Doc on those summer nights uninvited. Arriving unannounced, she would appear at his ruin--a formerly destroyed section of a Venetian castle. It was a place over the years he had more-less inherited. But who really was this honey-haired girl who began to invade Doc's isolation? Somewhere in her twenties, beautiful, and with a musical voice and a graceful gait, she seemed real enough to the retired professor. But it was her nightly stories which gave him pause for disbelief. Tales from a long-ago past. Myths. But were these stories all she would offer him?Complete
The Forbidden Rhapsody
You think you know all the stories: the names of Kings and the faces of Gods. You re-enacted the battles in child's play and imagined the monsters that made you sweat cold at night. Yet these fantasies were but shadows gasping in the darkness - distorted, fragmented memories forbidden by the Gods. The time has come to unveil the age of heroes and creatures, when defiance for the sake of glory or love left trails of ruin and waste. It was the age when minds awakened from the shadows of Olympus to face the retribution of the Gods, and Earth was the playground of the immortals.Complete

The Taste Of Divinity
A Hades/Persephone retelling. How often do you catch yourself wondering how somebody's touch would feel? How soft their hands would be as they caressed your entire form, how sweet their lips would taste when they descended down to yours, how diabolic the touch would become as the hands would drift lower and lower? Persephone often wondered the same thing. [...] She saw the nymph playfully push the satyr down on the soft grass before straddling him, the sheer fabric of her garment highlighting her graceful movements. She heard her giggling and the satyr's amused growls and her green eyes widened when she saw the satyr's hand wander underneath the nymph's skirt. Perhaps, she should have left the moment she realised what she had stumbled upon. Perhaps, she should have return to her field of lilies and picked some flowers for her mother, Demeter. Perhaps, she should have but she didn't. ❁❁❁ In which the dreadful King of the Underworld steals the daughter of Spring. All images belong to their respective owners. Source: Pinterest.

Fate, however, has designs greater than his dreams. When the muse Calliope descends from Olympus, draped in a cloak woven from the light of the stars, she reveals to Leonidas his role in an age-old prophecy-one that speaks of a mortal who will stand against the turbulent tides of godly strife.
