Arion, a youthful shepherd in Thrace, shares a tranquil existence with his blind mother, the goddess Demeter. Their serenity shatters when Arion"s uncle Hades emerges, beckoning him to the netherworld and offering a cure for his mother"s blindness. To obtain this promise, Arion must slay Zeus, the Olympian ruler who condemned her.
Years of harsh tutelage beneath the earth forge Arion into a formidable fighter, and he sets out to avenge his mother by confronting Zeus. On the trek toward Mount Olympus, he allies with an unlikely trio: the colossal Geedo, the cunning thief Seneca, and the silent maiden Resphoina. As he carves a crimson trail across a realm of warring factions and legendary beasts, Arion unearths hidden truths about his ancestry and the destiny of scheming deities in the annals of myth forever.
