Wow, Granny Smith's even older than I thought if Ponyville was there in the siren's day.
Before the transformation, sand hadn’t bothered me too much, but now it was just coarse and irritating.
And it got everywhere.
“Η θεά Αφροδίτη μου χαμογελά.” He rasped.
"The goddess Aphrodite smiles upon me." Beautiful naked woman who appeared on the beach. Reasonable assumption to make. (And she'd certainly like it if castration were involved in her appearance here.) Hopefully the real deal doesn't actually exist. I can't imagine she'd be happy with Adagio claiming to be her. Claiming to be her daughter is only slightly less of a problem. Aphrodite wasn't exactly known for her patience and level-headedness.
You stand before the mighty cyclops, Euandros!
They say a good man is hard to find. If this is the one you get, keep looking. (Also, the existence of a cyclops really underscores the whole "hubris" problem.)
This looks like it'll be quite the ride. Can't wait to see where it goes from here.
10300330 Not exactly. I will say this though, the story will borrow heavily from IRL Ancient Greece/Mythology but I intend to take creative licences. It's not meant to be a historically accurate story down to every last detail. More like an ancient version of the EQG world with more magic.
So far, so good. I love how quickly Adagio & (Human) Flash have a great chemistry already & the scene of Adagio "comforting" the dying sailor was kinda touching. Also, the battle scene was pretty entertaining to read.
Gonna read Ch. 2 later today after work, til then have a great day Enclave.
I think this is the first story I’ve come across on this site that deals with the Sirens immediately after their banishment. It’s always been my headcanon that the Sirens were causing all sorts of problems on Earth/wherever the hell the portal leads, from relatively minor things right up to kicking off wars. You know, because they were bored or whatever
Great chapter!
So far, the interaction with Adagio and human Flash is great.
The scene with her and the dying sailor was also great.

That was a slight oversight on my part.
I'll just change to some other pony-sounding town name.
Another Enclave2277 story? This is turning out to be a great day!
For a second I thought this was a Percy Jackson crossover.

I'm loving this so far I can't wait to see where this goes. I hope Flash can gun her good.
Interesting, very interesting
