Eclipsing Apollo
Apollo is fond of many things: music, poetry, physical prowess, truth, and love. The Pythian Games are held in his honor, and he attends, disguised as a mere mortal, to enjoy the competition and the company of women.
Meeting the fair Coronis offers him his greatest delight. Her strength, beauty, and fearlessness capture his heart irrevocably. However, she desires none of him. Coronis is duty-bound to marry but yearns for much more.
She is a fierce competitor, a hunter, skilled in strategy and reason. Those who court her lack both the mind and the body to rival hers—she will settle for no less. As a mortal, Apollo is both infuriating and tempting.
But Apollo the Olympian is terrifying. She fears that giving him her heart might destroy her soul.
Demeter's need for revenge pits Olympian against Olympian, forcing Apollo into a darkness the God of Light must fight if he ever hopes to see his Coronis again.
