You wouldn't even call Mycenea a town. Not in the traditional sense. It's a small strip of tumbledown homes, off a length of unfinished highway near Route 66. Even in the year of our lord 1949 the U.S.A. still makes mistakes, and this town is one such mistake. A ramshackle array of buildings and fake businesses, it's been left behind. Cast away. There is a diner run by a kindly middle-aged woman called Circe. There is a gas station, but the attendant is blind. He is also very large. There are advertisements for a soda called Lotus, but the factory is burned down. One dusty night there are lights outside Mycenea, and a terrible sight. Now a new myth has arrived. With the help of a strange, silent visitor, the leftovers of the Old World must make peace with the new one... or die trying.
