You are invited to the realm where you can only see in books. Experience Greek mythology. Be the Olympians, the leader of the story, the Titans are wiser and older generations, the Primordial Gods, who are never the leaders but they play important roles as the creators of the realm, and a lot of miscellaneous gods
Be fraternal gods if you want to be in a 'gang', mermaid-like creatures nymphs, superhumans demigods, and last but not least, be the rulers of the land, mortals themselves.
Think myth is just a bedtime story? Then think again.
♣ COUNCIL OF THE GODS ♣ delayed until further notice
Involving the new plot (the mortals starting to forget the gods), the gods need to hold a council, which involves all the gods to attend. We're planning about this.
Due to lack of activity recently and the start of new term, we've decided to delay this. Although we have made the threads about it, we feel like we should wait for other members to come. For now this council will be delayed until further notice. Sorry for the inconvinience.
