What if the legends were true?
Would you believe them?
What if the gods were real...
But they were not gods at all?
Would you still worship them?
What if the truth had to be hidden?
She is the one tasked with hiding the truth and twisting the tale.
Ancient Rome is a world of spectacle and power, where laughter fills the streets and blood stains the sand.
Gods. Monsters. Men.
The line between them is thinner than anyone dares to admit.
So tell me...
Do you trust the monsters?
Or the men?
In S.S. Olympus, the legends are not divine.
They are not magic.
They are not myths.
They are something else entirely.
Something that fell from the sky and was mistaken for gods.
In Rome, they are worshipped.
To history, they become myth.
To Cornelia, they are an escape.
An escape from a quiet, provincial life.From a future already chosen for her. From a man she was never meant to survive.
But stepping into their world does not make her safe.
It makes her important.
Because stories do not spread on their own.
They are shaped.
Twisted.
Rewritten.
Welcome to the S.S. Olympus.
Welcome to a world of gods, monsters, and men.
“Well-behaved women seldom make history.”

Sounds interesting but you talk here about the ancient Greek gods. Not Roman
