Calypso was bedding Odysseus against his will every night for 7 years.
A week has 7 days and there are about 4 weeks in a month. Every month has on average 30 days. Or there are 365 days in a year.
Add them up and you will realize that Odysseus was raped more than 2500 times.
Let that sink in!

Okay this is very stupid but I can’t find one of the few posts I am actually lowkey proud of making. It was an answer to an ask about similarities between real Greece and Assassin’s Creed representation. (Yes that’s the one I am proud of, what about it) I have tried all possible keywords and all searches and I can’t find it. Should anyone ever come across it, please tag me or give me the link to my own post lol 😅😅😅

"average greek sea voyage takes eight months" factoid actually just statistical error. sea voyages around greece are very short. Bad-luck Odysseus, who tripped over a monster every five feet, had to sail in loop de loops around greece to avoid various annoyed deities, and took eleven years to sail 565 miles, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

redesigned Hermes and Circe to start the Circe saga.
Circe changed very little, I just changed her accessories a bit and added some ornaments to her hair (though it's a bit hard to see here).
I completely remade Hermes' outfit though. With his first design I was aiming to make him look like a traveller, but that aspect of his character isn't really present in Epic. Instead he has a more flashy, extravagant vibe. So yeah, I got rid of his big cape and gave him this one instead. Also gave him some extra armor on the legs to draw more attention to it ;)
I definitely prefer this outfit, with less fabric covering his body he looks more extroverted, and the fabric connected to his pulse will give all his movements an extra flare. The armor on the legs also provides a really nice silhouette!
I also changed his colors a bit! His outfit is now more of a violet/blue, dark color with shiny highlights, to give him this futuristic look and match with the synth of his songs. And I also changed his hair color to a more white-ish blonde to add contrast.

Hey folks, this image of Apollo was done for a private commission. Xoxo
The following text is reposted from my previous Apollo Olympians image.
“Phoebus, of you even the swan sings with clear voice to the beating of his wings, as he alights upon the bank by the eddying river Peneus; and of you the sweet-tongued minstrel, holding his high-pitched lyre, always sings both first and last…And so hail to you, lord! I seek your favor with my song.”  (-Homeric Hymn, translated by H.G. Evelyn white)
APOLLO (uh-PAH-low), God of prophecy, oracles, music, art, protector of and disease of boys and men, and archery. Just as his twin sister Artemis is patron to women and girls, Apollo is both protector, and killer from disease of boys and men. In my Illustration the god holds his bow and arrows behind, while he strums the lyre gifted to him by trickster Hermes. Near the sun flies his ally and divine messenger, a white raven. The column on the right is capped with a cow, representing his sacred animal as a god of herds. The serpent Python sits dead at his feet, killed by Apollo’s arrow so that the god could take over the Delphi temple location. The temple complex sits beneath the god, while on the far right, the Pythia (Apollo’s oracle priestess) sits upon a tripod, breathing the hallucinatory gasses seeping up from the earth to get her prophecies which she bestows upon visitors.
The laurel tree has associations with Apollo because the god, chasing a Naiad (water nymph) named Daphne call out to Gaia (mother earth) for help, who transformed the nymph into a laurel tree, which the god adopted as his sacred tree. In book 1 of the Iliad, Apollo supports the Trojans by raining down a plague on the Greeks, and later helping Paris to kill Achilles. Apollo’s cruelty is shown in Ovid’s mythical lyre contest with the inventor of the flute; a satyr named Marsyas. When Apollo suggested they play their instruments upside down, the satyr lost, and was flayed (skinned) alive as punishment for his hubris.
