One of my longer ideas – aka "pieces" …

When I was quite young, I used read Greek Myth stories. And Native American legends.

I had a "thing" stories of… sometimes very intense violence, meyhem, "luck", nature, various gods…

The Greeks had an origin story. Heck everyone has an origin story.

I won’t go into all the various details… but when they get around to saying how man got fire… it is quite upsetting, gruesome and sad.

Man [Prometheus] stole fire…. and his punishment? He got tied to a rock for all eternity while his kidneys were eaten by birds.

Great story for kids eh.

The famous Adromina …the woman [again tied to a rock] for the Kraken [a giant sea monster] to eat her. Wow — super empowering.

They had 3 women with 1 eyeball — those were the Fates. Again there is a whole story about the eyeball getting stolen.

What the heck?
