    Summary

    After a year of siege, the Trojan War is at its end, and nineteen-year-old Odysseus, captain of the Ithacan armies, is ready to go home. But Zeus commands him to slay one more foe: the infant Astyanax. Failure to do so carries a sentence of very possible death for everyone Odysseus loves.

    He should take the easy way out. He should choose thousands of innocent lives over a single infant foe.

    He doesn't.
    ---------
    Sixteen years after the siege of Troy, Astyanax of Ithaca has all he's ever wanted: a home, a lover, a life of privilege. But all of that hinges on the fact that almost no one in his kingdom knows who he truly is.

    When Naxy's heritage is revealed, everything and everyone he loves are thrown into peril. Forced to compete for the hand of his lover Telemachus, it is all he can do to hope that he has what it takes to save the crown prince, and Ithaca herself, from the hand of the usurper Antinous.
    ---------
    Or:

    A single, timeline-shattering choice sets off a cascade of destruction.

    A stolen prince learns the lengths he'll go for love.

    And a fallen king finally understands that only the brave choose mercy.

    Summary

    Calypso’s face softened, she tried to mirror his crooked smile. “Oh, well.” Red bloomed in her round face. “I am not jesting. I am pregnant with our child, Love.”

    “Kill it.”

    She stilled. “What?”

    Odysseus was still grinning at her, the tears in his eyes made his gaze gleam like stars. “Kill it. Or should I do the deed?” His eyes widened as he nodded to himself. “I have killed a babe before. Hector’s lambkin. I shall do it again.” His chest was heaving with ragged breaths.

    Summary

    “Penelope…”

    In front of him was the door, a door that will guide him directly to his queen, his love, his everything. The same door, same wood, same rough touch that he knew 20 years ago.

    He opened the door, leaving a small squeak, and entered.
    ________________________________________________________

    Maybe Athena and Odysseus shouldn’t have had discussed matters that they did not understand. Maybe it was more judicious to not talk about Alternative Universes and worlds.

    Maybe they have jinxed, because Odysseus was now doomed to wait longer.

    20 years was, apparently, not enough.

     

    OR : Odysseus is one hell of an unlucky guys and gets transported to an other universe, ours.

    Summary

    “You still have need of a wife.”
    Odysseus thought of the letter that had been thrown across his desk, the sharp remarks and witty banter in response to his so called offense, carefully crafted so as not to do more than slight the intended recipient without causing conflict.
    Hellen was not a well-read person from the tale of her. Nor was she so careful in choosing her words, he heard her to be sharp and decisive, playful with wine.
    It was more likely, Hellen of Sparta had a ghost writer, one with a clever tongue.
    “I’ll think about it.” He promised.
    ...
    Hellen of Sparta is getting betrothal letters from all over, and thus require responses to their correspondence. Odysseus never intended to write her a letter for her hand, but it seems he never had to, as his mother had it well in hand. He never knew it could lead to this, he never understood how a man's devotion could triumph over everything one knew but with that letter... he had understood.

    Summary

    if anything in the tags turns y'all off this fic, please read the notes first because they might fix it

    ---------------

    When the kings of Greece come to conscript Odysseus for the Trojan War, Penelope of Ithaca knows one thing: she will not lose her husband to war, and she will not let her son be used to take him. In a desperate attempt to save her family, Penelope offers herself to the war effort in Odysseus's place.

    Penelope is whisked away to Troy with her army, and a devastated Odysseus is left to raise his infant son alone. Even when the war ends, their trials do not. Penelope faces gods and monsters while Odysseus struggles to rule Ithaca and protect himself and his son from the malevolent suitors seeking his hand.

    Essentially, the plot of EPIC, but Penelope and Odysseus's places are switched, and the Ithaca side of the plot is quite a bit darker.

    Summary

    Two friends had the dumb idea of what it would be like getting Isekai'd to Epic.
    -

    It didn’t feel that long of a sleep until I heard yelling.
    That yelling sounded like Laurens. He’s shaking me pretty forcefully.
    My eyes pretty much jolt open from fear. “Dude, what the fuck!” I exclaimed. I
    hated being woken up. I noticed something weird about Laurens. Why on Earth is he wearing Greek clothing? He was wearing full armor and a helmet too, and had a sword and shield.
    It was hot as hell in here. Hotter than my room. There were no fans to support me. I felt gross as hell.

    “Language, Mera,” a voice said.
