    Summary

    A look at the cultural schismogenesis of the Minoans vs the Mycenaeans and Mycenaeans into Hellenes through gender, culture, and language - using a very fantastic bordering on scifi retelling of the Odyssey as the vehicle.

    Written as if told from the perspective of one of my OCs. uwu. I've been thinking about these characters since I was 12 and took my first world history class. I am now 30 and recently read the Odyssey (Emily Wilson translation) and Crossing the Wine Dark Sea (Emily Wilson authored). But I am very much not a translator!

    I am, however, an academic (biologist) who doesn't know how to write! Read if you dare!
    (Special thanks to my fiancee for fixing all my sentence fragments!)

    Cringe is dead. Long live cringe!
