[void-of-unparalleled-chaos]

Okay so time for me to dump my thoughts on the Underworld Saga because I am going insane and tbh I'm not sure how coherent this will be because my brain is mostly keyboard smashing.

The Shades: "When does a man become a monster? 558 men who died under your command. CAPTAIN! CAPTAIN! CAPTAIN! CAPTAIN! Why would you let the cyclops live when ruthlessness is mercy?"

Okay so the harmonies of the Shades are amazing! But also this whole bit is just so... haunting. The call back to Just a Man and Ruthlessness does something to me. Could you imagine being screamed at by the ghosts of everyone you've failed? Also Jay confirmed that the shades in this song are just repeating their final thoughts in life. They drowned begging for their Captain to help them and died wondering why he failed them. This probably fucked Odysseus UP.

Odysseus: "I keep thinking of the infant from that night. I keep thinking of the infant from that night."

I swear I can hear the PTSD in his voice holy shit. Also Astyanax's music box motif being played in church bells in the back. I never would have noticed it if not for Jay's behind the scenes videos but knowing it's there makes this bit so much better.

Odysseus: "Polities..."

I was not nearly as wrecked at this bit until I saw this post mentioning that Odysseus quiet little "Polities..." is a mirror of Polities strangled "Captain..." when he died and now I will never be the same.

Odysseus' Mom

I am not exaggerating when I say I cried during the watch party. Everything about this is heartbreaking. His mom was thinking about him in her final moments. "Odyssues when you come home I'll be waiting" except she wont be. The shocked defeat in Odysseus' voice with "I took too long...". He's right there in front of her, but her shade just doesn't register him. They are so close physically yet still separated by death. Also the fact that Jay's mom voices her that is so sweet omg.

The change from "Here in the Underworld the past seems close behind" to "But in the Underworld your past is always close behind."

THE STRINGS!!!!! AND THE PIANO!!!!

Tiresias' voice is so haunting omg

Mason absolutely NAILED prophet who is constantly being shown everything all the time at one I love it sm.

The lyrics in this song are just.... so good. And the foreshadowing is top notch

Jay's voice acting for Odysseus' is also great in this.

The distress and frustration in "We've suffered and sailed through the toughest of hells. Now you tell us ur efforts are for NOTHING?!" and the absolute anger in "WHO!?!?!" (Its you, Ody. See your about to go through a complete change in morals about 5 minutes from now and become a completely different person).

THE DESCENDING ORGAN FOR THE SECOND CHORUS MY JAW DROPPED

Jorge don't think I didn't notice the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hellfire, vibes at the end I see you.

This is my favorite song released in Epic so far and I am not normal about it at all.

The GUITAR! THE ELECTRIC GUITAR!

For those unfamiliar and being dragged along this nonsense post, Odysseues character is associated with the guitar. The acoustic guitar is when he is softer, kinder, and more "human" while the electric guitar represents him at his most brutal, ruthless, and "monsterous". This song is his turning point to which he is done being merciful. He will do ANYHTING to get home.

"Oh Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves..."

Really taking Poseidon's lesson to heart there.

Odysseus: "AND IF I GOTTA DROP ANOTHER INFANT FROM A WALL IN AN INSTANT SO WE ALL DON'T DIE? THEN I'LL BECOME THE MONSTER! I WILL DEAL THE BLOW!... SO WHAT IF I'M THE MONSTER?"

Ayrsgstusigxjgsutaut holy shit holy shit holy shit-

Play this back to back with Just A Man for some psychic damage. What an end for Act 1!

Sacred Animal Headcanons for The Descendant Heroes

I have been on another Binge-Watch on “Class of The Titans” lately and only in a first few episodes, I wanna give out my very own personal headcanons of Animal Symbols for each of the Main Characters (who are Descendants of the Heroes from Greek Mythology) based on their own Ancestors’ story.

Jay (Descendant of Jason) - Ram

A Ram for Jay would obviously make a lot of sense in a case for his Ancestor, considering that Jason was the Leader of the Argonauts that traveled through the Sea to find the Golden Fleece so that he could reclaim a kingdom on his own for his own relative.

Atlanta (Descendant of Artemis) - Deer

Artemis’ main associated of an Animal was a Deer. Deer were obviously a symbol of her Hunt, especially the Ceryneian Hind. In fact, Artemis did had a chariot of her own run by Four Deer. Giving on how Atlanta’s name is a reference to “Atalanta” (A Woman who was favored by Artemis herself). Not to much that Atlanta runs really fast like a Skilled Deer.

Herry (Descendant of Hercules) - Lion

Herry has a lot of similar strengths to his own Ancestor. Among Hercules’ stories was his 12 Labors. Throughout the Twelve Labors of Hercules, Hercules’ first labor was the Nemean Lion who he easily strangled as stories did say that he wore the Nemean Lion’s pelt throughout his own adventures. So a Lion for Herry would make a delightful common sense among Hercules giving on how that he was one of the strongest children of Zeus.

Archie (Descendant of Achilles) - Horse

Achilles is one of the most popular heroes around in Greek Mythology, in fact, The Trojan War is one of the most biggest Myths of all time. A Strongest Warrior who was the son of the King Peleus and even the Sea Nymph, Thetis. However, Achilles was trained by the Centaur, Chiron (the Trainer of Heroes) to become a Future Warrior. In case for a little suggest of a sacred animal for a Non-God, I think Achilles’ symbol for Archie would be a Horse giving on how some Horses can have a suicidal tendency in them (which does seem to work for Archie’s leg).

Theresa (Descendant of Theseus) - Bull

Now a sacred animal for Theresa through Theseus has to be an easy one. Her own Animal Symbol would be a Bull, considering that Bulls were indeed one of the most popular and divine creatures in all of Greece. In fact, her own Ancestor’s famous story was about slaying the Monster (the Minotaur) after when Poseidon cursed King Minos’ Wife (Paisphae) to fall in love with the Cretan Bull who the King was supposed to sacrifice. 

 Odie (Descendant of Odysseus) - Ox

Odie has the same intelligence as his ancestor, Odysseus (who was a trickster of a Hero with such Smart Brains throughout the Trojan War and even the Odyssey). One time around in Homer’s “The Odyssey”, Odysseus felt really starving as he ate any of the Cattle. Now Oxs and Cows are considered to be part of the Bovine Family, so I’d like to think that an Ox would suit for Odie giving on how some of the Oxen can actually be smart.

Neil (Descendant of Narcissus) - Peacock

Narcissus was more of a Vain Hunter who couldn’t care less if anyone would to fall for him (in this case for two of his victims, Echo and Ameinias). He wasn’t so much of a Hero but more of a Narcissistic Jerk. After when Aphrodite cursed the Hunter into looking at his own reflection just to fall in love with himself, he died as a Flower. Peacocks are often portrayed as Vain and Proud in some media despite the fact that they were mainly depicted as Beauty (as to this day for Real-Life Peacocks). A Peacock would work for Neil giving he shares some of his narcissistic personality from his Ancestor.

Odie

·          (voiced by Doron Bell Jr.) – "The Brains," descendant of Odysseus. Odie is introduced with Theresa as the fifth and sixth teens discovered respectively. He is usually seen as the youngest of the group as he is physically smaller than the other heroes but, in fact, he is one of the oldest heroes at 16 years of age. He has super intelligence, cleverness and extremely advanced skills with all types of electronics. He is also the group's tactician and the first to come up with a plan. He has no official weapon, but usually uses a walkie-talkie and an amazingly well-equipped laptop given to him by Hermes. Because of his physical size, Cronus usually mocks Odie by referring to him as "the little one." Since he lacks the more notable physical capabilities of his ancestor and those of his friends, Odie is often underestimated. Transportation-wise, he gets around on a moped. Unlike the other six teenagers, who seem to be Caucasian, Odie is of African descent and bears only slight physical resemblance to his ancestor (something that characters tend to take note of; Odie himself remarks in episode 1.17: Eye for an Eye that Odysseus' "bloodline is rather diluted" in him). He wears green-tinted glasses, likes virtual reality video games—he is apparently skilled enough at them to fly a special jet plane he has never flown before (although the design was taken right out of one of his favorite video games)--and suffers from claustrophobia, which he can overpower with a specially designed device placing the location elsewhere (in his mind). Original designs of Odie depicted him in a white hoodie with a blue shirt. His mentor is Hermes.
