Warnings
(and whatnot)


Of Rating:

When it comes to literature, I think warnings and ratings are simply irrelevant. But I can understand that some people dislike stumbling upon things they find shocking. So be it known that there will be mature content, but since the story isn't done yet, I simply don't know which kind or level of "maturity" it will be. There will be explicit sex if I feel like it, or not. And probably explicit violence. And certainly some shounen-ai, lemon yaoi and other kind of male/male relationship stuff since this story is partly based upon classic Greek texts. If you don't like it, complain to Aeschyle or Ovid, not to me - and no, I don't have their email addy ;)

Of Storyline and Timeline:

This story takes place within two different timelines: ancient mythological age and modern days (starting before the Sanctuary Battle). To help the reader tell one from the other, ancient one is written in past tense, and modern in present tense.

Okay, I confess. I took HUGE artistic license with both mythology and St-Seiya parts. Admittedly, I'm writing this for fun - mine and the readers' - and when it comes to fun I don't like being bound (who does?). Fun is too serious to limit one's imagination. First change is about ST-Seiya characters' age. I generously added 4-5 years... Nobody will ever persuade me that Shiryu or even Seiya were 13/14 years old boys.

Of Copyright and Property:

Saint-Seiya characters are property of Masami Kurumada, Toei Animation and any company legally owning them, whatever they are.

Greek, norse and egyptian divinities and heroes are property of mankind.

Artemis, Apollo, Eros and Aphrodite, as described in this story, are the creation of Derrewyn Aensland, may she be blessed for her talented imagination!

Of Language:

This humble writer doesn't have english as her first language. And to make things even worse, has learnt Shakespeare's tongue mostly in the US of A... So, yeah, it won't be that perfect, and I apologize in advance for any language-related error.

Special Thanks:

To Derrewyn, Torquemada, Toffee and Boadicea for their talent and for giving me the will (urge?) to write this piece of delirium which I humbly hope you will enjoy. To Homer, Ovid and Aeschyle for the same reasons. And to my dear friend Darrell for helping me with "da friggin' english language".
