I have a story about a possible post TOA series about the possible founding of Rome. The story involves a set of demigods (I would have to break the great prophecy canon-ish? because the main character was young enough to see the first war with Krios (is that the titan the Romans fought?) but also old enough so its been a hot while since the great prophecy since three of the series heroes are big three children.
It involves some unanswered questions and the nepotism issues and also a lot of new established character development for Camp Jupiter.
We get an explanation on why Romulus, despite being the founder of Rome and a hero who ascended to godhood didn’t blink an eye at any chaos that happened in the years (other than the brief mention of him getting his first temple at Jason’s death which could be an issue on why he hasn’t shown up at all).
If any Camp Jupiter fanatic like me wants to hear me yap about my characters, world building and plot feel free to intrude my DMs!!
like literally intrude
hersilia, remus and romulus
some sillies ⚔️🐑🦌🌻
ok i'm on a posting roll. beware, Hersilia !
The Intervention of the Sabine Women by Jacques-Louis David
The painting depicts Romulus's wife Hersilia – the daughter of Titus Tatius, leader of the Sabines – rushing between her husband and her father and placing her babies between them. A vigorous Romulus prepares to strike a half-retreating Tatius with his spear, but hesitates.
The rocky outcrop in the background is the Tarpeian Rock, a reference to civil conflict, since the Roman punishment for treason was to be thrown from the rock. According to legend, when Tatius attacked Rome, he almost succeeded in capturing the city because of the treason of the Vestal Virgin Tarpeia, daughter of Spurius Tarpeius, governor of the citadel on the Capitoline Hill. She opened the city gates for the Sabines in return for "what they bore on their arms". She believed that she would receive their golden bracelets. Instead, the Sabines crushed her to death and threw her from the rock, later named for her.
