Forged Pantheon

The false god reigns.Ares and Kratos have faded into legend. Olympus has bowed - not out of loyalty, but out of fear.And in the cradle of power built on war, a new force is about to be conquered: love.Eros, god of desire, once danced through hearts like unrestrained fire. Now, stripped of his wings and his memories, he is chained - forced to serve the new divine order, transformed into a weapon that rewrites the very nature of love. His light wanes with every soul he shatters.But in the cold spaces between dream and death, someone else awakens.Hypno, god of sleep, long exiled to the silent edges of the world, feels the rupture. The dream-realm groans beneath the weight of corrupted desire, and in its deepest fold, he finds Eros - wounded, twisted, and burning with a beauty that refuses to die.To save him means waging war against the mind. Against illusions. Against a god who has now claimed dominion over both the sky and the heart.While Ares and Kratos ignite rebellion in the world of flesh and fire, Eros and Hypno must do so in the underworld - where dreams are born, and where, long ago, the first seeds of Olympus's downfall were sown.But love is no longer gentle.And dreams are no longer safe.To reclaim what was stolen, they must become what the false god fears most: Unbound.Desire can be rewritten. Dreams can be weaponized.And the old gods have not yet spoken their last word. Alex Hagima is a Romanian author and translator whose writing explores the intersection of myth, memory, and emotion.
