Arion

Synopsis

In a distant era when gods and men walk the earth together, a young boy named Arion plays in the rolling hills of Thrace. His mother Demeter bears a double burden: a curse of blindness and the hidden truth of Arion's birth. A mysterious stranger spirits Arion away, intent on shaping the growing boy into an assassin—a covert weapon to tip the balance in the war between Zeus and Poseidon. But Arion will not be easily manipulated, nor will he submit quietly to adversaries such as the tenacious Ares, the intelligent and fierce Athena, or the elegant and scheming Apollo. Only his tremendous strength, a forgotten weapon forged by Prometheus, and the love and loyalty of his allies can carry Arion forward. To uncover the secret of his destiny, he must storm Mount Olympus—and face down Zeus himself!
