Prologue: The Age of Myths and Machines

Inside a luxurious meeting room inside the densely guarded military headquarters of China, located in Beijing, General Cao Wu Qiang sat at the heart of the almost endless, rectangular table, signifying the role of the highest importance. A knock was made, the general gestured his hand, and the security guards dressed in fine black high-tech combat suits stationed at the door of the cavernous meeting room opened the heavy, elegant wooden spruce door. A finely dressed lieutenant entered, he sat directly next to the general on the large yet empty rectangular table, and delivered a report, "Dear General Cao, Every first-world country is currently establishing special soldier divisions with the leaked mythology machine, all armed with powers of the gods." "India next to us already has special divisions, all equipped with unimaginable power from gods. If we don't do something, they will soon invade us, along with every other country! This new... technology... is the key to winning this global war." the lieutenant finished his report and suggestion, information on his highly classified report had already been projected onto the hologram on the centre of the table, he now looked at the general, waiting for a response.

"This machine is dangerous, we have no idea what risks it will bring us." General Cao Wu Qiang stared at the political map and the classified report of the Mythology machine. Any news about the controversial machine was immediately silenced by China, all to prevent panic from the public. According to the report, India along with Italy, Israel and the reestablished USSR has already begun research on the unknown technology, leaked from a blueprint by an anonymous user on social media, some even started trials, sending volunteers into mythology realms through the machine.

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

"We don't have a choice, General, it is either we launch Project Mythos, or be hopelessly conquered by neighbouring nations, just like Nepal, powerless against those special soldiers who obtained powers of the gods." The lieutenant knew how dire the situation would be if China did not catch up in the latest technology of the Mythology machine, and he attempted his best effort in persuading the general to make the decision.

General Cao Wu Qiang hesitated slightly, considering many factors and outcomes of the decision, a red button signifying the launch of Project Mythos rose onto the advanced high-tech desk. Cao Wu Qiang slowly raised his hand, still hesitating on the important decision; war is like a game of chess, one would be eliminated quickly if one makes reckless decisions, he must think carefully

Eventually, he slammed on the button. "Permission to launch Project Mythos has been granted" "Thank god!" the lieutenant said to himself upon hearing the announcement he had been desiring to hear. "We will begin the construction of the Project Mythos department building, and recruitments will begin shortly. Thank you, general." The lieutenant exited the meeting room, now outside instructing his lower ranks to initiate the project.

Project Mythos is successfully live.
