    ---------------

    When the kings of Greece come to conscript Odysseus for the Trojan War, Penelope of Ithaca knows one thing: she will not lose her husband to war, and she will not let her son be used to take him. In a desperate attempt to save her family, Penelope offers herself to the war effort in Odysseus's place.

    Penelope is whisked away to Troy with her army, and a devastated Odysseus is left to raise his infant son alone. Even when the war ends, their trials do not. Penelope faces gods and monsters while Odysseus struggles to rule Ithaca and protect himself and his son from the malevolent suitors seeking his hand.

    Essentially, the plot of EPIC, but Penelope and Odysseus's places are switched, and the Ithaca side of the plot is quite a bit darker.

    Summary

    𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐋𝐎𝐏𝐄 - 𝐌𝐄𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐎 - 𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐄 - 𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐀 - 𝐂𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐏𝐇𝐎𝐍𝐄

    The theatre of a woman is built on deceit. What one says is not another’s belief. The men may play with their knives and swords, but a woman’s game enjoys the subtle art of manipulation and careful observation. You may believe you hold the world, but do you truly?

    You have read the odyssey, listened to the musical, but you see it through the eyes of men. But the weavers of fate are women, and so the weaver of the story is not the man before you. Rather, perhaps you must listen to the women behind, who’s strings and threads choke the lives of men, all while you believe in their honeyed smiles and innocent eyes.

    There are 5 of whom you will read, a WIFE, a SERVANT, a SISTER, a MENTOR, and a DAUGHTER. Each perspectives and belief more different than the last. But one thing unites them, the story of Odysseus, and the grand manipulation of it that they each hold a thread in.

    Summary

    People knew it was one wrong move and your life would be in the hands of a god or goddess. And being at their mercy was never something anyone truly wanted, they could never understand what that horror could truly feel like. Penelope never imagined she would sink this low but times like this had her wishing she would drown in Poseidon's sea. After everything she had done, did she truly deserve mercy?

    Summary

    “Why won’t you take me?” she whispered, her voice breaking, another kiss swallowed by the weight of her emotions. “Why won’t you fight me like you did before? Why do you think I’ll break?”

    Circe stilled beneath her, and Penelope swallowed down the truth she couldn’t bear to voice.

    “Why won’t you treat me like you did Odysseus?”

    The words left her in a broken sob, and with them, the floodgates opened. Tears fell freely now, shaking her shoulders, her body curling inward even as Circe lay beneath her, silent in the wake of the confession.

    ═════

    Or, Penelope decides to go search for Odysseus after reaching her breaking point. She ends up on the isle Aeaea, and meets the godess Circe; who changes her view permanently on such husband.

    Summary

    " My queen. " Says a woman with long, luscious brown hair, embedded with flowers of all kinds. Her pink dress, curving her figure all the way down to her legs, drapes just below and leaves a flow in her step like nothing else. Her eyes almost entrance her, send her into a spiral with how many colors lie within. It's inhumane, it's unique, it's--

    " Who are you? "
