    Summary

    The war is over.

    When King Cepheus of the emerging kingdom of Arzawa attempts to invade the much older kingdom of the Kykladic Islands, he is unprepared for the ferocity and skill of the soldiers and mariners who defend their homeland, and for the raw, wild power of Perseus, the young prince who commands them.

    Forced to retreat in defeat, he now desperately treats for peace with Perseus and his retinue of aligned lords in an encampment on the island of Naxos. He has agreed to pay tribute to the prince, but now, in the final stages of discussion, the topic turns to the matter of King Cepheus’ armies, who are camped on the far side of the island. What is to be done with them? What must be offered to Perseus to assuage his wrath, to prevent him from raising the fury of the seas in one final act of vengeance?

    Cepheus only has one treasure remaining to barter with - his daughter, the beautiful princess Andromeda.

    Will he sacrifice her to the prince of white waves, offering his own flesh and blood to that always-ravenous monster of the depths?

    (And if he does: how much might she enjoy being devoured?)

    Summary

    I've been on a bit of a Worm short story kick, and so I thought I'd begin uploading them like I did with the Pokémon ones.

    Note: not all of these will be canon compliant, sometimes for the sake of the joke or the story. In some cases they'll lean heavily on in-character knowledge (i.e. the characters will state an incorrect thing to be true because they believe they are being truthful) or on places where the details of the setting are unclear or contradictory, while in others I'll just be doing what's funny.

    Hopefully they're enjoyable though.

    Summary

    Andromeda Jackson—daughter of Poseidon, war hero, siren.
    She left home years ago to escape the gods, the weight of Olympus, and the shadow of her famous twin. Exandria was supposed to be quiet this time. Peaceful. Hers.

    Then came Vox Machina. And cursed cities. And ancient threats.
    Now she’s being dragged—again—into saving the world.

    But this time, she’s not a sidekick. Not just someone’s sister.

    As her powers resurface and old wounds reopen, Andi is forced to confront what she’s capable of, who she wants to be, and whether she can trust herself enough to fight—not just for the world, but for her place in it.

    Summary

    Persekrene Ptoselaiagenos, the Athenide.

    When Athena weaved her gift and won the city of Athens, Poseidon struck the earth in defiance. Not only did the earth respond but the Fates, too.

    The child of wisdom and seafoam, a child born from competition rather than lust.

    Summary

    When Zorian and Zach encountered otherworldly divine beings in this new world, they were worried about a lot of things. Being crushed like insects, hunted down as invaders, having their magic stolen and experimented on. What Zorian absolutely was not expecting was two babies being left on their doorstep.
