But those who seek power never realize they're not the ones pulling the strings-they're merely part of a larger game, dancing to a tune they don't even know is being played. ***** What to expect: ✅️ Rich lore and mythos with a fresh take on Gods and mortals ✅️ slow burn storytelling ✅️ immense world-building ✅️ multiple intricate arcs spanning multiple timelines ✅️ various perspectives, and plenty of drama. Expect a long, slow build-up that pays off in a big way. ***** DISCLAIMER: This story contains graphic violence, gore, and disturbing themes including forced cannibalism, infanticide, parental abuse, and more.
