History remembers kings.
It forgets the hands that removed their rivals.
For centuries, the Arguëlles have moved through the spine of the nation-
unseen, unrecorded, and untouched by regime change.
Presidents rise. Dynasties flourish. Empires collapse.
The Arguëlles remain.
When Vincienzo Araneta enters St. Ethereal Institute,
An academy built to groom heirs of power,
old bloodlines begin to shift.
This is not a story about heroes.
It is a story about inheritance, institutions,
and the quiet violence required to keep a crown.

THE ODYSSEY (Completed)
The Odyssey (Greek: Ὀδύσσεια Odýsseia] in Classical Attic) is one of two major ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer. It is, in part, a sequel to the Iliad, the other work ascribed to Homer. The Odyssey is fundamental to the modern Western canon, and is the second-oldest extant work of Western literature; the Iliad is the oldest. Scholars believe the Odyssey was composed near the end of the 8th century BC, somewhere in Ionia, the Greek coastal region of Anatolia. The poem mainly focuses on the Greek hero Odysseus (known as Ulysses in Roman myths), king of Ithaca, and his journey home after the fall of Troy. It takes Odysseus ten years to reach Ithaca after the ten-year Trojan War. In his absence, it is assumed Odysseus has died, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus must deal with a group of unruly suitors, the Mnesteres (Greek: Μνηστῆρες) or Proci, who compete for Penelope's hand in marriage.Complete
