mythology
blinded by his love for the sun
Beyond the achievements of any other mortal,
blinded by his love for the sun,
Icarus would risk all.
Should some frontiers never be reached,
as his father Daedalus guided?
Reaching out beyond the Gods and the Heavens of Olympus
Was Icarus destined to fall?

Flying above the Sea of Crete, escaping the island and imprisonment of King Minos
Circe, a daughter of the sun god Helios
and a gifted sorceress who could turn anyone into animals. She lived in her palace surrounded by nature on her own island Aeaea.

As water that sculpted the rocks for thousands of years,
Sages, Myths, Religion, Fairy tales, and heroic deeds have sculpted humanity in endless ways and forms.
It inspired our forefathers to build the countless treasures we hold dear, our connection to our past, but have we lost touch?
Veins of our past slowly fading into oblivion, are we rebuilding together a new pantheon of stories to sculpt humanity?
To inspire us to new ways and heroic heights?
Or does the sun not set on this old world and can it transform to inspire the new?
