The living story
The story so far
Memnon, son of Eos and Tithonus, led his Ethiopians to Troy's defense and fought Achilles in the war's most beautiful duel — dawn's son against the sea's grandson. Achilles won; Zeus weighed their fates in golden scales first.
Happening now
Eos's tears fall as morning dew wherever he is mourned. His men were turned to birds — the Memnonides — who fight above his tomb yearly.
What may come
The Godblood are the season's impossible children — born of documented gods and mortals, both parents named in the songs. They appear rarely, and never twice the same.

The Godblood
