Epic: The musical tale of Odysseus and the Odyssey
First things first! I do NOT own the rights to Epic the musical. All rights go to Jorge Rivera-Herrans and the cast who sang in it. Please go check them out especially if you have never listened to the musical. This is a FAN retelling of the musical with more details to make it like a novel. Now then, with that out of the way.... In Greek Mythology, there are Tales, Legends, and Myths of Heroes and Tragedies alike. There's one certain tale that I'd like to unveil, one regarding a king and his plight. One of the perilous journeys of Gods, Monsters, and lessons in Ruthlessness and No Mercy. So sit back and enjoy as I tell you the tale of Odysseus and the Odyssey. Check out Epic the musical on YouTube, Spotify, Deezer, Apple Music, or wherever you listen to music.Complete

Hongjoong made sure of it-faking his own demise to escape the throne and take to the seas, following in the footsteps of the pirate king who raised him. Now, as captain of the infamous Black Siren, his name is feared in every port. But when he raids a royal ship bound for a political marriage, he doesn't expect to find him. Seonghwa-the first prince of the allies kingdom. The boy who once knew him. The man who could destroy everything. With the entire kingdom hunting for its stolen heir, Hongjoong has only one choice: keep Seonghwa close, keep him quiet... and ignore the way his presence sets his blood on fire. Danger brews on the horizon-rival pirates, political betrayals, storms that could sink them both. And somewhere between chains and stolen glances, the prince and the pirate will have to decide if they're enemies... or something far more dangerous. ×××××× Main ship: SeongJoong Side ships: Woosan, Jongsang and Yungi Start: 5.8.2025 End:?

Song of Two Worlds
Peace has finally returned to Ithaca. Odysseus has reclaimed his throne. Penelope's heart has found rest. And Telemachus - the prince who once doubted his place in the world - now stands tall beside the girl who changed everything. Y/N, the girl from another world. The one who defied the gods, crossed the boundaries of fate, and fought beside him in the battle for home. But peace never lasts long under the eyes of Olympus. When a shimmering portal appears - pulsing with divine light and the voice of fate - it demands to take Y/N back to where she truly belongs. Telemachus refuses to let her go. And when his hand refuses to release hers, the gods' will shatters. Together, they are pulled through the rift - thrown into her world, a realm without gods, where music replaces prophecy and destiny is written by choice. But the gods are not done with them yet. As Telemachus struggles to survive in the modern world, Y/N begins to uncover the truth about her connection to both realms - and why she was chosen. Love, it seems, is the one force powerful enough to defy eternity. Now hunted by divine forces, torn between two realities, and facing a choice that could destroy both worlds, Telemachus and Y/N must fight one last time - not against monsters or mortals, but against fate itself. Because some loves are not meant to be contained by time, or by gods.
When telemachus, son of the famous Odysseus, is out hunting and he sees that some onenis following him he confronts the person. He sees a beautiful young woman who looks his age. She starts to speak to him. She says, "I'm looking for refuge in your kingdom my lord" and bows.
