This story is set in the far distant reaches of time. A setting of myth and mist.
A teenage Telamon has been raised in seclusion, shepherding on a Grecian hillside. He doesn’t know his father and his mother won’t tell him. One day he begs and begs her, and she tells him that his father is none other than Hercules! Telamon wants to be legendary like his dad, but he wants to meet him more. His mother tells him he must go to the oracle at Delphi. She will instruct him what to do.
And so, he journeys there. The fume breathing oracle tells him that he must travel to Hyperborea, far in the north, where men worship gods of thunder and ravens. It is there he will find answers.
This is Part 1 of 2.
