Description
In a distant future, the echoes of ancient myth collide with advanced technology as the Trojan War is re-enacted on the surface of Mars, overseen by a pantheon of gods dwelling on Olympos Mons. A modern-day professor finds himself thrust into this cosmic drama, entangled in the divine machinations of vengeful deities. Meanwhile, on a ravaged Earth, a desperate group of survivors seeks answers to a forgotten history, unaware that their fate is intertwined with the actions of sentient machines dispatched from Jupiter's moons. These artificial intelligences are on a mission to investigate anomalous energy readings from the Martian conflict, potentially holding the key to humanity's survival or its ultimate destruction.
