Achilles... you're still here.
And you, Odysseus... still wandering.
We were legends once. We fought for something bigger than ourselves.
And for what?
Now we're nothing but whispers in the wind. Forgotten.
Do they know my name anymore?
Does it matter? Perhaps not.
I'm just passing through, Achilles.
A shadow in transit. Caught between the worlds.
Ithaca calls to me. Penelope waits.
My journey isn't over. Not yet.
I keep moving. You remain.
That's our curse, my friend.
I understand... To have been a warrior, a hero...
then to come here and fade into nothing. A shadow.
I would have rather lived as a simple man, a farmer, or anything else.
Anything but this!
Go to her. Go home.
Find what you've been chasing all these years.
Live the life we never could.
You always wanted peace. And maybe that's why you never got it.
The gods never give us what we truly desire.
The gods. Do you think they still care about
us now? Do you think they even remember us?
Of course they remember us! They have no choice but to remember us!
We gave everything. Our lives, our fates... for their wars and their whims.
And look where we are!
No, I don't think they care anymore. No, the gods are fading.
And maybe... maybe it's time we fade with them.
It's a curse, you know, being a legend. You think it'll be worth it.
But when all that's left is the silence of the Underworld...
it's just a void.
Maybe we are not meant to get answers, Achilles.
We did our part, but the world moves on without us.
That's how it has always been.
And yet, I'm still here, still trapped in this place...
still haunted by Troy.
We all are, my friend. We all are.
Maybe it's time to stop fighting the gods, and just let them do what they want.
[Flute music playing] Welcome, Achilles. I knew your soul would seek comfort...
before the Fates decide the next path.
Circe. I thought you were only a myth in this realm.
An old pact with Persephone... and even myths need company, hero.
Let us wash the dust of Hades from your skin.
Drink, warrior. Let the world fade away.
Tonight, there is only us, my hero.
Yeah, this is what I wanted.
The wine, the touch of women... this... endless... enjoyment.
Stay, Achilles. Stay and forget the old world, and the forgotten battles.
No... no, this is not who I am.
I was not forged for softness!
You will regret this! Go and find out what your freedom truly costs.
[Music playing]
Thetis... I assume you didn't come here just to admire my office.
I came here to remind you of your responsibility.
I know what you'll ask, but things are complex now.
The sea remembers promises, Lord Zeus.
The world has changed. People no longer believe in us.
You want Achilles freed, but I can't decide that easily.
I don't care about your excuses.
Achilles is my son, and he deserves to live in a world that he fought for...
not rot for eternity in the Underworld.
The gods are fading, and the world no longer believes.
If I free Achilles, it's not just his freedom. It's tipping the balance.
We didn't ask for this world, Zeus.
You and the other gods abandoned us to this madness...
trapped between the mortals' disbelief and our own fading powers.
But I will not let my son remain in that place any longer.
You will free him!
I didn't think you'd still care so much.
I thought you would let him go.
The tides themselves wait for him.
After all, he's been gone for centuries.
He was the leader of the Myrmidons, and he's my son.
The son of a goddess, a demigod.
Thetis, freeing Achilles means opening a door to a cold world.
I have never let him go.
I have waited for you to act, and I will wait no longer.
You will release him, or you will know me better.
The gods may never return. There is no going back.
I don't care about your politics, Zeus. I
want my son back, and you will give him to me!
They don't want gods walking among them.
Oh, but Gorgons are just fine?
Medusa's power is even growing. Her power is stronger.
Her organization threatens even your own.
Remember who you are talking to.
I thought I was talking to the king of the gods...
but your efforts to quash Medusa's rise are less than virile.
Send Achilles. Send my son. He is pent up for battle.
He can defeat Medusa and ensure your legacy on Earth.
Your name will not fade from the history books.
Very well, Thetis. You will have him then.
The mortal world doesn't believe in heroes anymore.
Then let them be reminded.
Hades... I have a request.
Speak.
I hate when you do that.
I'm willing to make the deal. But I need your help to bring him back.
What's in it for me?
Resurrecting a demigod? What could I possibly gain from it?
Come on, what's a favor between brothers?
Still a favor. And I don't give those away lightly.
I want to resurrect Achilles. If you do this, many more
souls in the Underworld. A fair trade, I would say.
Fair, perhaps. But nothing comes without a price.
You'll owe me more than just a handful of souls.
Fine, but don't test me, Hades.
It will be done. He'll awake in a world strange to him.
He'll understand its tongue.
He'll still have his power, but he'll be dressed
like them, and he'll be older and mortal.
Here he is. He will wake. Not here, but
somewhere else, where the modern world meets him.
[Club music playing] What in Hades and Zeus is this?
Where am I? What are these clothes?
Hey guy! Hi! How are you?
Are you okay? Are you drunk?
Circe? Beautiful Sea Nymphs. Were you sent by Thetis? Is this Thetis's realm?
What's a Sea Nymph? And who's Circe and Thee-Tus?
Oh, this is my place. Is there something wrong with you?
Who cares, he's hot.
I... I don't know where I am. I remember the
battlefield, the clash of swords, the cries of the dying.
And then, the endless nothing... of the Underworld.
How did I end up here?
Maybe you took an Uber.
It's okay, ladies. You can go. I will take it from here. He's mine.
Achilles, are you all right?
Who are you?
I'm Artemis. I'm here to help you. You've been gone for a long time.
You don't remember anything?
Gone? For a long time?
I remember... Troy. The war. Yes. The gods. Yes.
But this... this is not my world.
It's not. It's the modern world.
You've come back to life, Achilles, in a time that has forgotten your name.
Come back to life? I... I don't understand.
You walk in Hyperborea, a land of mist, forests and northern hearts.
It was once the world of the barbarians, but it has changed.
I still don't like it here. What of the civilized
world? What of Greece? I want to go back.
Greece is not the Greece you remember.
How long have I been gone?
Many hundreds of years. They call this the time of machines and cities.
Many hundreds of years? Yes. That's impossible.
I was in the Underworld.
Yes, you were, but things have changed. The
gods, we... we are fading. The myths, everything.
Thetis, she was asking for your return.
Thetis? My mother.
She sought your freedom. The mortal world is not as you remember.
It's only... the quiet hum of technology,
efficiency. It's not like how it's been before.
Everything is about efficiency and hard work. No heroes, no battles.
I was a warrior, led men to battle, fought for honor.
And now... now I can't even remember how to stand like I used to.
That's the curse of immortality, Achilles.
We're frozen in time while the world moves on.
If I want to just go back to Greece? Even if it's in the Underworld?
You can't go back to the Underworld, Achilles. They won't welcome you.
You are brought here for a reason.
Reason?
There is something you must do here, that
will shape the fate of the mortals and gods.
I don't want any more tasks. I've had enough of them.
I've given everything for others. I fought for
glory. I fought for a name, for a place in the stars.
But it's all... it's just gone.
It's not about glory anymore. It's about survival,
Achilles. You need to trust me. Now follow me.
Good evening. Authorities are investigating a
series of brutal and highly unusual murders...
happening across the city.
Officials now believe that these crimes are connected
to an organization known as the Medusa Syndicate.
A group once dismissed as rumor.
Several victims have been discovered in a disturbing state...
being described as internal calcification, leaving authorities searching for answers.
Law enforcement is urging the public to remain vigilant and to report...
anything suspicious to authorities.
We will continue covering this important story.
I'm Julia Vance. Everyone, stay safe.
Have a seat Achilles.
Rest here for a while. You just came from the Underworld. You need time to adjust.
I'm not a man of apartments, of glass and concrete.
No, you were a warrior. But the world doesn't
need warriors anymore. It needs survivors.
You will need a new identity. People will notice. Zeus sent you back for a reason.
What reason?
You are not here to just walk on the streets.
You are here for something much bigger.
Zeus's purpose?
A criminal group, the Medusa Syndicate is rising. Its leader? Medusa herself.
Medusa. I remember her. The one with snakes for hair.
Cursed by Athena, turned into a monster.
She's no myth.
She's more powerful than anyone knows.
Why would Zeus want me to deal with this?
She isn't just a monster. Now she's built
something far more dangerous. An organization.
Amassing power in the shadows of the mortal and immortal realms.
Good evening. With breaking developments on the
recent wave of unexplained murders across the city.
Authorities are now investigating possible ties between the victims
and a criminal organization calling itself the Medusa Syndicate.
Sources close to the investigation report that several
victims were found partially or entirely petrified.
Forensic experts are baffled, describing the bodies as calcified
from the inside out, a phenomenon they cannot yet explain.
The Medusa Syndicate, once thought to be just another underworld
rumor, is quickly becoming the city's most dangerous threat.
Officials warn citizens to remain vigilant and report any strange occurrences.
Stay with City Eye News for continuing coverage.
I'm Christine Rose. Stay safe out there.
So Zeus sent me here to fight some organization? That's why he needed me?
You're the greatest warrior, Achilles. The
world needs you, whether you like it or not.
He didn't bring me back to rest, Artemis. He brought me back for another battle.
Medusa isn't just a threat to mortals. She's a threat
to everything we fought for, everything we stood for.
And now she's coming for the gods.
What happened to us?
We were forgotten, Achilles. But that doesn't mean we don't
matter. We just need to find where we fit in this world.
I'm not supposed to be here. I should be resting in peace, not this.
Peace, as you remember it, is gone. We have to
adapt, Achilles. All the myths, everything is gone.
Civilization has reached Hyperborea... but where are the statues, the temples?
Most of them are museums now. People visit them, take
photos, and that's it. It's... it doesn't matter anymore.
[Phone ringing]
Hello, Mom.
Is she talking to someone who isn't there?
[Struggle sounds] What the hell? Who are you?
Thank you! I don't know what I would have done without you.
Achilles, as I live and breathe! Who in Olympus and Hades decided to let you out?
I thought you were a seer.
Head splitting like a ripe melon, and still he has jokes.
Over two thousand years would have been pretty far to see even for me.
I wish I were dead again.
Stay still, old friend. We're all here for a good reason.
As one of the greatest actors of modern time
said once, "We all have a special set of skills."
Who would listen to an actor?
What did you do?
I caught you up on two centuries of knowledge.
[Phone ringing]
Hello, mother?
It will come to you.
And... what is this?
The modern world.
I see great things for you, great purposes.
Come, Achilles, we have much to do.
Achilles, watch that heel.
What's wrong, Achilles? Is everything all right?
I don't know. I feel something I never felt before.
Maybe it's pain.
But wait, aren't you immortal?
I think I'm not only older, but I also lost my immortality.
Mother.
I felt it. The moment you returned, the world stirred.
The world moved, the gods stirred, but I didn't believe it till I saw you.
It's been centuries.
The sea knew you would return, son of Thetis.
Thousands of years, and you still manage to find trouble the second your feet land.
Mother, I feel pain. I think I'm mortal.
No, not you. Not my son. What did Zeus do?
A bit of trickery, I guess.
I will not let him take you from me again. Not like this.
I hate to admit it, but maybe we do need some additional support.
Ah, the great Achilles. He admits that he has a heel.
I admit that some battles require an army.
Even if it's just an army of two?
Three. I know of someone who may help.
Atalanta, the huntress?
I thought she disappeared after the fall of Arcadia.
She didn't disappear. She walked away.
Atalanta has modernized her hunting skills.
She still fights in the shadows and fights modern-day monsters.
I'm not sure she'll be eager to join us.
Nonsense. She hates Medusa more than any of us after she turned her lover to stone.
We're still going to do Zeus's bidding?
[Alert sounds]
Wait, a crime alert.
[News alert sounding]
Another day, another slew of bodies discovered
across the city, including these victims.
Some with petrified limbs or turned completely into
stone, all with looks of horror on their faces.
Police link these deaths to the so-called Medusa Syndicate,
a rising underworld power with a seemingly unquenchable thirst for violence and power.
Residents are being urged to stay vigilant, report any unusual
activity, and avoid areas known to be linked to the syndicate.
Stay tuned. We'll be back with more updates on this developing story.
This is Donna Lane reporting live for the Big City Channel. Back to you.
Medusa must be stopped. For humanity's sake.
Atalanta, it's me, Achilles.
Achilles? He has been dead for over 2000 years.
You know each other?
Yeah, we both trained under Chiron.
And maybe a little more?
Yeah, she was the only one in Chiron's camp I couldn't outrun or outfight.
Or outlove, apparently.
That was thousands of years ago.
Still stings.
Can we focus on the task? Atalanta, we are hunting Medusa.
It's about time. Why are you wasting time here?

We're close.
Perfect. Basement of nightmares.
Atalanta.
Can you feel it? The numbness, the heaviness.
As one of the modern bards saying, we're all just another brick in the wall.
You really don't give up, do you? When did you get it?
That we are just still pawns for the gods. You are just Zeus's errand boy.
We don't always get to choose our destiny.
Is it that? Or do you have to involve yourself into war after war?
It's in your blood, in your soul. How many lovers you have to lose to let that sink?
Yeah, okay. And how many times do I have to kill you for you to stay dead?
Go on then. Let's spill some blood and call it purpose.
No. Let's you and me finish what we started.
Let's fight as warriors, one-on-one, with honor.
Noble Achilles!
The man who dragged my corpse through the dust now wants to fight with honor?
Fine. Let us do battle.
Artemis, take care of her. I'll be back in a minute.
Here, take a look at yourself, bitch.
You really think that in the time of selfies,
I haven't gotten used to my own reflection?
We don't need those two.
[Gunshots]
[Men grunting and punching]
Kill me, but treat me with the honor of a fellow warrior.
I'm sorry for what I did to you at Troy.
Kill me. I'm not me. I'm bound to her. I'm a slave to her.
Free me!
What? You're a slave of Medusa?
Please, brother. End it.
[Woman screaming] No, stop it!
Atalanta. She's screaming.
Let's go.
If it isn't the son of Thetis, sent to do the gods' dirty work.
What happened to your snakes?
These days, only on Halloween, you hero from antiquity.
Leave her alone, now!
Surely you've figured it out. Zeus and I are working
together. He rules the Olympus of the financial district...
and I rule the shadows and slums of the Underworld.
Hector, I'm disappointed in you.
I was a warrior before I was your puppet. And now I'm cutting the strings.
So be it. You can join the ash heap of history along with your former nemesis.
And Artemis, why throw in with this boy? Don't
you know this is the era of women's empowerment?
I'm not looking for power. I'm looking for justice.
Fine. Side with this old man, with this antiquated relic.
I wouldn't be so sure. This old dog has learned some new tricks.
[Snake hisses]
[Gunshot echoing] You cannot kill me, you idiot.
It's boring here. I gotta go to a party. Bye!
Atalanta, are you okay?
Yeah, I feel better now.
Here you go brother, for the ferryman. This time I carry you with honor.
Thetis, Achilles, Artemis, Atalanta. I wasn't expecting a reunion.
You should be. We've come for answers.
Speak!
Medusa. He convinced her to surrender with the help of some great ladies.
I see. He has done well.
You might want to ask your old friend Hades how he arranged it.
I had no choice. You don't understand.
I understand perfectly. You made a deal with Hades.
You freed me from the Underworld at a price I wasn't told.
I did what I had to do. The Underworld doesn't give—it takes.
I did it for your mother and to protect Olympus.
Protect Olympus or protect yourself?
Don't fool yourself, Zeus. Hades is playing you.
He's always playing you.
You don’t understand!
I've been keeping something locked away.
Enough with the cryptic threats, Zeus. Speak plainly.
Something older has been summoned and is coming for all of us.
There may be a way, the Oracle. She knows more than anyone.
The Oracle? She may have grown more dangerous than Medusa.
The sea has felt this before. Just before the world broke.
When the time comes, don't say I didn't warn you.
We don't flinch. We fight.
We'll be ready. Let's go. Time to visit the Oracle.
He might have a deal with Hades, but the real war is just beginning.
