Mythical Greek Creatures Novels & Stories

Records described them as having a “greenish gleaming face with disheveled serpent-like hair while the rest of her body is covered by darkness. Abyzou says that she does not sleep, but rather wanders the world looking for women about to give birth; given the opportunity, she will strangle newborns. She claims also to be the source of many other afflictions, including deafness, eye trouble, obstructions of the throat, madness, and bodily pain. Arguably, the name “Abyzou” appears to be a corrupted form of the Greek word abyssos ("the abyss"), the Greek itself was borrowed from Assyrian Apsu or Sumerian Abzu, the undifferentiated sea from which the world was created in the Sumerian belief syste

She had traveled with two of her sisters and a convoy of merchants riding horses who had all served as game for the giants after they unknowingly passed through one of Loki's portals. As the boy tied the rope of lianas he had found, to the huge animal skin bottle that Lathgertha had picked up behind the house, to send it to the children at the bottom of the well and to bring them up two by two, they heard in the distance, from behind the giant forest behind the house, sneers, loud chats and heavy footsteps. The little hunchback turned quickly to the little girl and his frowned eyebrows, asked her: — What are these noises?

He seemed to go back into the deep water, where large bubbles began to small bubbles on the side of the boat. "Oh, there he is," said Alice with a smile and pulled the trigger, "Be quiet, baby." As soon as her voice fell, the lake immediately a large number of sprays. It's like an animal struggling in the water. Then the creature slowly floated up. Alice smiles more happily. She reached out and grabbed the creature from the water, pulling it out. When she saw the creature she had caught, her face suddenly changed. Its long body is covered with livid scales and its mouth is full of sharp teeth, which means the creature is a common fish called alligator gar. The average size of this fish is ab

My balance continued to stager and it was difficult to do anything much less than to fight the seroe t when the latter could control the sea itself. “That… is expected,” finally the creature spoke, fastening its rowing pace so the boat wouldn't be swept up by the rough waves. “The serpent is a creature of the abyss… created by the gods. To cross between the sea as a living thing is not anything the moongods would want, therefore the difficulty is to be expected.” “What exactly is the abyss?” I asked as my eyes stared closely at the sea, expecting every movement from the ripples that were difficult to predict.

All these creatures were shapeless; they seemed disoriented, but the only thing that really stood out was that these creatures were following Greco. “He's doing the same thing he did with the griffins and the basilisks,” I said and frowned. “What the hell are those things?” “Demons,” said the fairy fearfully. “Real demons.” I felt the tension in Selene's wings, and she looked up at the sky in anger. However, she rose forcefully upward and then screamed so loudly that the creatures covered in pitch saw her. They shook violently, and the pitch left their bodies and returned to the pit.

I praise her in return, “So here's what the Alpha told me. He wants information on a group called The Feral and the leader of the group. A woman named Cora, who may have magical abilities. He didn’t say she is a witch, but maybe?” “I don’t know about the name Cora, but I think I saw a book in Alpha Bronx’s private library that referenced Agrios. I know it's an old Greek word, hmm let me do a quick internet search,” she flips open her laptop and starts typing. After a moment, she turns the screen toward me, “The word itself means wild or savage, but in Greek mythology, there was a Gigantes created to fight the Olympian gods during the Giant War, named Agrios. He was supposed to replace the Mo

The king spoke, "We need to find Sophie as soon as possible. Because if Sophie is really in Zack's hands, she's really in danger. Because Zack might be doing the onerex right now," Onerex? What's that? This is the first time I've heard those words. "What onerex are you talking about, father?" Drake asked. "Onerex is a ritual performed on half-vampire creatures," said the king. "To the legendary goddesses who are half vampires," said Alexa.

As I spin I stifle a scream. Making its way through the trees is something truly out of a myth. From top to bottom it is a mish-mash of creatures. Its twin heads are that of both a goat and a lion. The heads join at the shoulders to the body of a lion, all ending in a tail with a serpent's head. Growing up I was always interested in mythology. The name of the creature easily came to mind; Chimera. I try to back away slowly, hoping it hasn’t yet noticed me.But as per my usual clumsy self, I end up tripping over my own feet.

Waiting for his orders. Popobawa were horrible creatures gifted with black magic who fed off of fear. It's why you usually saw them coupled with hitmen or at the sight of natural disasters. I didn't think the AAs had enough clout to bankroll one of these rare creatures, but I guess business was booming. "You rang?" It never once had eyes for Q but continued to stare at me and Erika, lip curled back so we could see its gangrenous tongue as it feed from us. "What is it that you wish of me, Master Quinton."
