Finally finished "Warframe - Origins", now what?

Well, I guess I'll be starting on that piece I told you guys about in my earlier post.

It's called "Endless Sleep", and it's about my take on the Endymion myth. For those uninformed, Endymion is a Greek youth in Ancient Greek Mythology that caught the eye of the moon goddess Selene. There are various versions of him, like he was a king, or a warrior, but the most prominent version was that he was a mere shepherd. The moon goddess fell in love with him and made him fall asleep while being eternally young so that Selene can gaze upon him anytime.

Again, I have a different take on it. Taking more of a dark road and deeper background, my story involves the unpopular prophesy that the Olympians (the gods) will fall, just as their predecessors the Titans did, and just as the Titans' predecessors did. Honestly, in Greek Mythology itself, it's like a curse that the son would replace the father.

Although the game God of War has played on this already, my take on the story would be more engaged with a narrative rather than powering up and hacking away at gods.

Also, Selene would be involved of course. So we have something there to add to the mix; romance. I'm not a shoujo writer so don't expect anything extravagant, only things that are logical and applicable.

I pieced this story back when I was still a highschooler and it's one of my life achievements to finally put a dot to this story. I hope you enjoy yourselves as you join me in this new journey.


Thanks
