Summary
An episodic epic poem inspired by Ovid's Metamorphoses, with a lot of lore either adapted by me or taken other sources like Hesiod, Homer, and Edith Hamilton's "Mythology," but instead of the theme being change, like in Metamorphoses, my theme is sex and sexuality. I will focus mostly on consensual relationships, but will depict some non-consensual ones in less explicit detail. I also plan to (eventually) add stories from other wacky mythologies like Christianity and Ancient Egyptian Religion (praise be to Ammit the Devourer). I wrote it in blank verse, or unrhymed iambic pentameter. This is my first fic ever, and I'm pretty new to all this, so pretend to be nice to me; give me the benefit of at least a few doubts.
