Casandra believes that magic is for desperate people who gave up on their
chances of victory. The world is a harsh place where people abuse one another and you must have a thick skin to make it. Forgiveness is not on her list of attributes.
While on a trip to Alexandria with her archeologist father, she discovers an ancient crown which changes everything. The crown opens her eyes to a world of the dead, where dwells a young man who sets her world into a spiral. He shows her that many of her assumptions about her place in life, her ideas of reality, and most importantly, what she felt love was, are not real after all.

The two set off across the desert and even speak to the ancient voices of the oracles discovering who they are and were meant to be. The entwining love between them blossoms as they grow on their journey of adventure, battles, and struggles to become complete.

Uncovering the Goddess of Death

After hours of hiking, stopping only briefly to catch their breath so they could keep walking, they came to the temple of the oracle of Delphi. It was very high up in the hills, and from that point they were able to see the sea stretch out far below them. The temple was smaller than the ones in Egypt, with beautiful white columns, an amphitheatre built in the surrounding area, and a large, pointed rock jutting out from the center of the temple complex. 


Cassandra eyed this rock curiously. Lakis gestured for her not to touch it and explained, “This is the Navel of the World. Zeus administered his Eagles to circle the entirety of the globe, and when they came together they settled here, revealing the center of the world.”


Cassandra could not help but giggle and told him, “But, Lakis the world is a sphere. There is no center of the globe.”
