Dear Father,
I beg in my epistle with a sedate and somber plea that after reading this, you would assist me in my task of justifying the 'sotto - voce' mysterious death of your son, Alexander, which took place nearly 2500 years ago. Nobody till the time being, has ever given it a thought that the one whose death gave rise to the Hellenistic civilization, new culture, literature, and politics, should at least effectuate a relatively decent cause for his death. I am no Plutarch or Dryden or Aristotle himself to be an epistemologist of Greek lore or legend, but being a simple witted greek mythomaniac, I would create a new path en route to the factors that occasioned his death. A prophecy that foretold the gruesome conspiracy to end the life of the greatest king of the earth.
All I want from you is a little aid, a little enlightenment, a little fortitude, and caliber to complete my work. Hope you will provide me countenance and tutelage to undertake the long tedious journey of the past.
Yours Sincerely
Saheli

Cassandra was ruminating on the balcony of her room, looking at the view around her. The wide blue sea full of ships and boats coming to and fro from many places always mesmerized her. So many people went about their works, continuing their daily lives. But, her life was different. She has been a prisoner for the last five days. She was trapped in this beautifully decorated room like a doll in a case. She repulsed it. Everything around her disgusted her. Any other time, she would have loved to sleep on this feathery bed, smell the salted air of the sea, and gazed at the valley beyond which illuminated with the rays of the morning sun. she missed her home, her simple cot in the precinct of the temple, she missed her father and his pat on her head. Mostly she missed her brother. Throughout her life, she had been an ardent devotee of Athena and Apollo. Why did they do this to her?Karseus visited her every day, drunk and high, and coaxed her into submission. But she stood fix up

Argus moved closer. Selene knew what was coming. Her heart pounded in her throat, echoing through her entire body as she lifted her hand and placed it on the warm expanse of his half-open bare chest to stop him from moving forward.Time stopped and the world shrunk and she was caught up in a moment of wild ecstasy. All reservations broke loose and all limitations cracked when Argus held her close. Hard and quick with strong arms enfolding her, he brought her up against his tall frame as he bent his head. Selene met his lips hungrily, leaving all her shame and embarrassment behind.Their mouth closed and fought, his tongue strong and battling with her. She had him under her hands, her fingers against the warm skin of his neck, the damp fringe of his hair, pulling his chiton open.Argus lifted her and slammed her onto the wall. He swept her into his arms and kissed her soundly. She accepted his command and answered w

Throughout the day Argus worked and trained with the Kraken soldiers. They were known for their brutality with swords. The way they whirled and twirled the piece of the blade was enthralling to watch. They were lethal with flexible bodies and indomitable spirits. Clytus had sent messages all around the kingdom, to all the tribes who honored Karmen to join for the common cause. Many of them arrived with their phalanx and regiments. Argus was revered by all. His capacity and aura initiated a sense of respect among the people. His gravity to tackle every situation, his manners and his compassion for the people of krakens earned him a name. Everyone desired him as their leader. He was a truly worthy heir of Karmen. On one hand, he behaved like a baby when he played with the children of the tribe and on the other hand he was a fierce warrior who gave hardcore back-breaking training. From being a son of a priest, he wolfed into the king that he was destined to be. This was how the Three S

The journey to Corinth began at the first light of dawn. Fabian was equipped with all the necessary paraphernalia. He was still limping a bit. Maybe a day or two and his leg would be fine as before. He has chosen Theseus and two other best Kraken spies: Olus and Hermes, twin brothers. According to the plan, they would reach Corinth and try to know the political situations out there. They would disguise themselves as fishermen and traders and would blend among the Corinthians.Corinth was also known as Ephyra, after the daughter of titan Oceanus, lord of the ocean who was later overthrown by Poseidon. The biggest port of Corinth Magna Graecia was known for having the largest docks in the country. People from Athens, Cyprus, and the Levant arrived in Corinth through that port and set up business and trades. Fabian and his group too would join these bunch of traders and step foot into the city.
