Prologue Snippet 1

I know updates have been slow recently, but there's a reason! Because upcoming week... I'm going to Greece!!

We plan on visting the places (we can) that are important to Diomedes - like Argos, Thebes & Calydon - to get a better feeling for them both through the archeological sites, the locations as well as what these places and its people are like today :)

Im also hoping to find the time to visit the museum of folk instruments in Athens

So updates may be slow, but we're on it, I may share some impressions of Greece when it's time and I find a minute 😉

I just received the feedback from our sensitivity reader @wordsmithic ♡

A small peak into the feedback 😜🫣

Tyndaraueus 🙃😇🫠....one day I'll learn them right

Funfact it was easier for me to learn to pronounce Oedipodionides than learn to spell Sthenelus 😅

♡ giving me some great ideas to work with

Sticking to the sources has been important to us from the very beginning so its lovely to see it approved as well 🤗

Theres also been some very insightful commentary that I'll brood over and implement as I continue to work on the lyrics now ♡

The prologue has a first draft now 💫🤯 Offically making the musical a work-in-progress moving away from conceptualizion only 😵😎

Its currently approximately 1:22 min long, thought it will get longer in future drafts

Worked on the characters* goals last session

Theres a point when you cant think straight anymore and start writing down bs and itll be the best youve ever written down <3

Me frantically trying to not forget it before I can safely start an audio recording on my phone at the text red light 🥲🥲🥲

Well its 10 minutes, of which probably a total of 3 lines / 15 seconds will be useable

But one more song started :)

I will tell you which if you can guess which song number it is out of 60

The discord guessed the right song number! It was 15! So heres a small insight :)

Song 15

The armies are gathered, but theres no wind to set their sails...a goddess demands a young girls life as price
