Synopsis

For ten years Odysseus, king of Ithaca, fought and killed in an attempt to besiege the mighty city of Troy. On the tenth year the Greeks, led by the renowned king Agamemnon, succeed in taking Troy thanks to a ploy crafted by Odysseus: a deceptive wooden horse, and the decade-long war is finally brought to its conclusion—but during the siege, Odysseus is forced to make a decision that’ll haunt him for the rest of his life. Cursed for his actions by the gods time and time again, Odysseus’s journey has only just begun.Guided by Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and Warfare, Odysseus’s voyage takes him across the Aegean Sea in a desperate bid for survival as he battles against angry gods, twisted monsters, the elements, and even himself to return home to his beloved. As Odysseus is physically and mentally eroded over the course of this long tragedy, he is forced to adapt and grow, both as a warrior and a leader, doing all he can to keep himself and his crew alive while facing danger after danger that no mortal should survive. The sea is a tormentful, merciless place; while the pressure of the entire world crushes him, Odysseus must decide... how far is he willing to go, and what lengths will he travel, for love? A Web Serial by Saber Inspired by The Odyssey by Homer (obviously) and based on EPIC the Musical by Jorge Rivera-Herrans. New chapters Sunday (sometimes Wednesday).
