Greek Myth 소설 & 이야기

His tone was soft as if coaxing a kid throwing a tantrum. "Our Lord Hades is the greek god of the Underworld, commonly called in the human tongue as hell, but it is not as scary as people makes it seem. After a person's death their soul reaches the Underworld and they are judged for their deeds and sent to the afterlife they are worthy of. I understand this might be very confusing for you-" "I know of greek myths." My voice was raised but not from rage but frustration. "How long have you been following me to be so thorough, did you really go through my search results?

“Um, at school. The university. I’m a professor.” He didn’t look surprised, making me think he already knew that after all. “A professor of what?” “Greek mythology,” I said with a smile. That seemed to surprise him. “Like Zeus and Hercules?” “Hercules is a Roman god, but very similar.” “There are different nationalities of gods?” he asked with genuine interest. I glanced up at Christopher who was obviously listening but pretending to be occupied with the fridge. “Yes, I suppose you could say that. The Greeks had Heracles, which is who Hercules was essentially modeled after. The Norsemen also had their own gods.”

Ha, there you go. "Alright. Let's get serious. Since Agape's a Greek, let's choose who's our favourite couple in Greek Mythology and elaborate it. You go first, Granny!" I giggled and wiggled my eyebrows at her. She hissed. She sipped to her wine glass first before answering.

His voice was distant, as if he were putting together a puzzle in his mind. - AND...? — Aspen expressed the question that was also in my head. — In Greek mythology, Rhea and Cronnos are the Titans who created the world. They are the parents of the gods Zeus, Hades and Poseidon. They were husband and wife. — Remus explained. My eyes widened in surprise. — You mean Chloe and Aaron are…. — Aspen asked, excited. — It's just a theory, but it is known that wolves can only mate with another whose wolf name connects with theirs in Greek mythology.

Ryan's POV : According to Greek mythology, the Sirens were dangerous creatures, who used to lure nearby sailors with their enchanting music and singing voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their island. If you get too close to them, you'll lose your sanity for good for they will keep you enchanted. I never used to believe in these, but when you're in where I was even if you're a atheist you'll start to believe in God. Cause this particular siren will seduce you with her body, not her voice.

Echidna Echidna is a creature from Greek mythology, often depicted as a half serpent woman who lives in a cave. Together with her husband Typhon, Echidna gave birth to various types of terrible creatures that appear in Greek mythology, because of that Echidna got the title Mother of all Monsters. Echidna and Typhon once fought against the Olympian gods but lost. Typhon was then sealed under Mount Etna. Meanwhile, Echidna and her children are left free to become a challenge for the next Greek heroes. But in the end Echidnya was killed by Argus Panoptes, a hundred-eyed titan.

"That is a beautiful name. Which reminds me, this manor also has a name, doesn't it?" I nod. "Very true, the name of the manor is 'Cadmus', who was the first Greek hero in Greek mythology," I say as-a-matter-of-fact. "Yes, before you ask, my father was a great fan of mythology. He named all of our properties using names from different myths." She giggles and then thinks about something, I read the wheels spinning in her head. "If you could put a name to a new place, like a new house or new piece of land, what would it be?" She asks.

The quaint houses, standing like obedient soldiers in formation, waited patiently for their owners to awaken and take on the day. And amidst this picturesque scene stood a grand home, its columns reaching up to the heavens like the fingers of the gods themselves. It exuded an aura of power and majesty, reminiscent of the palaces of ancient Olympus. Yet, despite its grandeur, the home possessed a certain charm and warmth that could only be felt, not seen. Every corner of the abode was imbued with purpose and artistic intent, paying homage to the great Hellenic culture that had birthed it.

“My friends, our journey is long. Let’s save this for another day, would everyone agree?” After a pondering pause, all heads nodded in agreement. “Now, I have a story to tell.” He scooped a blue powder and tossed it into the bonfire. “Once upon a time….” The flame burst again, but this time, fiery images of animals, humans, and landscapes appeared. From the Greek heroes like Perseus and Jason, the adventures of Thor and Loki, and to the African spider god, Anansi, which was our first time hearing it, every story he told was brought to life by the flame.

I asked him, panic thick in my voice as I suddenly looked around in fright and waited for whatever this evil may be to suddenly attack me since I was aware of its existence. "Tis a tale, is it not?" he casually spoke with a shrug and I shook my head. "There is truth in myths, Abigor. You of all people should know that," he was a man of intelligence, no doubt a man that should be aware of truths in all matters myth or folklore, "and what you have described...only one mythical creature is capable of sucking the blood out of its victims..."
