• The Myth of Asclepius Jul 29, 2025

  

  Long ago, in the golden age when gods and mortals lived closer to one another, there was born a child destined to bring healing to the world. This child was Asclepius, son of the radiant Apollo, god of music, poetry, and prophecy, and a mortal princess named Coronis.

  The story begins with a tale of love and betrayal. Apollo had fallen deeply in love with Coronis, a beautiful maiden from Thessaly. She was known throughout the land for her gentle nature and her care for others, always ready to tend to the sick and comfort the suffering. Apollo was enchanted not only by her beauty but by her compassionate heart.

• The Children of Cronus Jul 27, 2025

  

  In the beginning, when the world was young and the first gods ruled from their thrones of starlight and stone, there lived a Titan named Cronus who had seized power through violence and treachery. He had overthrown his own father, Uranus, with a sickle forged from adamant, and now ruled as king of all the gods. But Cronus carried within his heart a terrible fear—for he had been warned that one of his own children would someday do to him what he had done to his father.
