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.

Lykos was renowned for his strength and courage, but his heart was burdened by the impending storm of war that loomed over his people. Day and night, Lykos would climb the highest peak of his village, his eyes fixed upon the celestial heavens.

“Oh, wow. I’m okay being me without turning into a dog in a full moon. Can I do magic tricks like you did?” Kailin had that funny look again, trying to hold her laugh. “What?” “You’re more than just a werewolf,” Grandpa said. “So I can fly then?” “Your grandmother Ophelia and your mother could see a person’s future.” I chuckled at the same time, in awe. “So they were like prophets?” “They came from the long line of Sybil, from Ancient Greek.” “Wasn’t Apollo, the god of archery, music, and dance, a seer of Zeus?

Mr. Malik walk the whole class straight to the exhibit of the Greek mythology. There were twelve statues in the room of Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Hermes, and Hades. “Alright, class, behind each statue there is a room of that god or goddess that your gathering information on, and if I were you, I’d take advantage on all the info this place is offering.”
