His crown was a person once.

The living story
The story so far
Apollo slew the Python at Delphi as a child and took the oracle for his own, then spent centuries perfecting everything: music, archery, prophecy, plague. He is the god of doing it beautifully or not at all.
Happening now
The oracle at Delphi speaks on a schedule now, and Apollo keeps the appointments himself. He has been composing something — the Muses refuse to say what, which means it is either a masterpiece or a disaster.
What may come
Every plague he sends, he also knows how to cure. The question the songs never answer is whether the cure or the plague came first in his heart.
