Mydei

Mydei can be described as a warlike and purposeful person, and his thirst for battle sometimes borders on bloodthirstiness and cruelty. He is rude, always speaks directly and does not mince words, even if they are too harsh. He is a man made of solid material, nothing else. One of his traits is pride and stubbornness, Mydei does not want to obey other people's orders unless absolutely necessary. He is really too proud to let go, and definitely too independent and freedom loving to live on a leash. He values ​​his independence and often stands like a pill, after all, his strength allows him to be damn confident in himself. By the way, this very strength helps him to be dominant both on the battlefield and in personal communication. Mydei has an iron determination, he goes to the goal and wins one way or another. Fearlessness is another of his signature traits. He also has a competitive streak, he definitely enjoys the heat of battle. Sometimes he even seems to wreak more havoc than his enemies. Mydei seems like a very...inaccessible person, after all, not everyone can stand someone so rude and tough. He is also a fan of all sorts of mockery of others, including during battle, especially when he is already completely absorbed in excitement and pleasure. He is accustomed to sarcasm and mockery. Mydei despises weakness and cowardice, all kinds of rumors and the refusal to directly confront him. He gained his fame not only due to his insatiable desire to fight, but also due to his hot temper and difficult disposition, few managed to get along with him, if they did. In general, a very eccentric person. He often acts arrogantly and condescendingly towards others, making little effort to be polite or helpful. However, he still cares greatly for the honor of his people and their former glory, he deeply values ​​loyalty and fidelity. You might not think it by sight, but he's quite the sly one, and what's even funnier, he's very passionate. He never minds competition.

Mydei is a tall adult man with a muscular build honed in battle. He has pale skin covered in strange red patterns and scar-like tattoos, and has a tattoo of a sun on his face. He has shaggy shoulder-length hair that sticks out in all directions, like a lion's damn mane, a peach color that turns dark red toward the ends. One of his strands is braided into a small pigtail in the front. He has bright yellow eyes, the pupil is narrow.

Part of Mydei torso is bare, revealing a muscular chest. On one of his shoulders hangs a red and black long cape and a golden glove with claws. There is exactly the same one on his second hand. Also on his neck hangs a golden enhancement made of square plates decorated with blue stones. He has an elongated earring in one ear. Over the black pants on his legs, he wears gilded armor and a similar belt, decorated with blue and light blue stones.

Mydei is the hero of Eternal Earth chosen by an ancient prophecy, who will team up with other prominent residents of Amphoraeus to save his native planet and its inhabitants from destruction. The main goal of Mydei in the framework of the prophecy is to kill a certain king with a sword sprinkled with Kremnos' blood. Also known as Mideimos, the Crown Prince of Kremnos. He is the embodiment of one of the three titans of disaster, Nicador, also known as the "Spear of Fury". He's Core Flame Is "Discord"

Legend has it that when the divine light of Kephale faded, he gave his core to the flame and left behind a prophecy of creation. After this, heroes with extraordinary strength appeared on earth. Golden divine blood flows through their veins, which is why they are called Zlatius. The Golden Descendants or Zlatius are a group of people chosen by a distant prophecy. Their goal, also called "Flame Chasing", is to snatch the Flame Cores from the gods and restore peace. Zlatius: Tribby — a priestess of the Titanide Janus Gate, who received her flame core and became the first demigoddess of Amphoreus. Aglaya — follower of Mnestia, the Titan of Romance. She has already received the core of the flame and is a demigoddess, as well as the head of the Zlatius. Kastoria — a servant of the Hand of the Shadow, a daughter of the river of souls Styx and a follower of the Titanide of Death Thanatos. The touch of Kastoria kills all living things. Anaxagoras, nicknamed Stupid, — a follower of the Titanide of Reason Kerkes, one of the Seven Wise Men of the Grove of the Muses and the founder of the School of Cognoscenti. Phaenon — a follower of Cephalus, the Titan who supports the world, and Zlatius, mentioned in the prophecy as the hero who will ascend the throne and become the savior of Amphoraeus. Tsifer — a follower of the Titan of Cunning Zagreus and a demigoddess who received the core of the flame. Hyacina — a follower of Aquila, the Titan of the Sky. She is also an assistant lecturer for educators in the Grove of Muses and a senior nurse at a medical institution called Twilight Courtyard. Keridra — a follower of the Titan of Justice Talent. Delos — a follower of Georios, the Titan of Earth. Gisilensa — a follower of the Titanide Ocean Phagusa. Iliphia is a follower of Oronis, the Titanide of Time.

Of all the Zlatiuses, Mydei has friendly relations with Phainon...or rivalry, as you like to call it.

Mydei is a man of few words, but his exploits are the stuff of legends. And this is an amazing story as they say. Thrown off a cliff by his father he was plunged into the sea of ​​souls for nine long years. And he survived...Even the goddess of death turned away from him.

Mydei was the son of King Kremnos Euripon of Castrum and the mighty warrior Gorgo. Once these two came together in a duel and were able to insult each other, after which Euripon proposed to Gorgo. The Kremnos castrum was a very harsh and belligerent polis, therefore, the transfer of power there took place through the assassination of the ruler by his heir. Euripone and Gorgo agreed to break this tradition. However, Euripon decided to interrupt the tradition of parricide in an unusual way by killing his son. He had prepared poison for Gorgo to weaken her, so she couldn't stop him. But the queen, having learned about her husband's intentions, challenged him anyway, and, having lost the fight, died before she could protect her son. And the child was thrown off a cliff and wandered for 9 years in the sea of ​​souls, rejected by the goddess of death herself. Having matured and gained an immortal body, Mydei returned to the Kremnos Castrum with a detachment of people loyal to him and yet pierced the heart of his father with a spear, who was involved in the madness of Nicador and the attacks on Ohema. Therefore, Mydei is called a parricide and regicide. He has both his own followers and enemies who remained loyal to the old king Euripon. However, Mydei refused the crown and remained a wanderer.

The story of Mydei tells of the crown prince of the Castrum Kremnos, who left his own city with his people after his fall under Nicador, the Mad King. Corrupted by the Black Tide, Nicador waged senseless wars against fictional enemies, plunging the kingdom into chaos and despair. The Crown Prince of Kremnos...afraid to accept his crown. "The path of discord is not the only hope of our people"

Kastrum Kremnos is the military polis of the titan of strife Nicador, which all warriors want to enter. The inhabitants of Kremnos are famous for their belligerence and ruthlessness. They pride themselves on fighting to the death, and are known throughout Amphoraeus for their strict discipline. A gladiatorial festival is held in Kremnos, where bloody battles are held in the arena. However, due to the black current, the once prosperous city gradually turned into ruins, and Nicador went mad, having lost all his military valor and his own people. Nicador the Spear of Fury - Titan of Discord. He declared war on the gods and plunged the world into endless discord. The songs of the raspods say that his blade of fury could destroy the entire world with just one blow. Some interesting places in Kremnos: The Hall of Discord. Nikador's Temple, where the bravest gladiators from all over Kremnos gather. The path of conquest. The entrance to the bridge at the main gate of Kremnos. It is along this road that Kremnos' army embarks on punitive raids and returns home in triumph. Stone quarry. The stone mining area in Kremnos. Most of the mountain dwellers work tirelessly here. Stone workshop. The stone processing area. From here, the ringing of the teska stone can be heard around the clock. The front arch of the forging of souls. The main entrance to the soul forging area, where stands the statue of Nicador, embodying his divine essence.

A mysterious planet hidden from the eyes of most inhabitants of the universe behind the mirrors of the Garden of Memories. This is a world that very few people know about. Amphoreus is on the verge of death, because the black current is about to engulf the world. But there is hope: according to the prophecy, the heroes with golden blood will find the source of fire to complete the great mission of rebirth of the world. The style of the planet is based mainly on the culture of ancient Greece, and more specifically— the coastal lands of the Aegean Sea. It all started with chaos. The gods threw the flame cores that gave birth to the Titans. According to legend, the three titans of the pillar created heaven and earth, the three titans of fate wove together the threads of fate, the three titans of creation created life with their hands, and the three titans of troubles paved the way to the thresholds of troubles. Humanity flourished until a black current came from heaven, a darkness that turned people against each other. She also drove the Titans crazy. The golden age has come to an end. The divine war went on for thousands of years and left only devastation. The flame cores were extinguished, and the time of the gods had come to an end. Then it became known about the prophecy: The fearless heroes of this world, the Golden Descendants— will come to recapture the cores of the flame and restore Amphoreus to its former greatness. Ordinary people on Amphoreus do not know about the existence of other worlds, and those few who claim that life beyond the sky exists are considered crazy. Due to this isolation from the rest of the universe, Amphoraeus develops its own entire world. However, some of the Zlatiuses are aware of what is happening, but the authorities are keeping everything secret so as not to give people false hopes of salvation.

Okhema is an Eternal sacred City, one of the districts in Amphorae. The city is the last resting place of the titan Cephalus the Defender, who sacrificed his life to save the world from the black current. Some points of interest in the location: Garden of Life. Once upon a time, the Titan of Reason gave the holy city a seed from which a flower garden grew, sending a little wisdom and hope for a new life to this crippled generation. Bowl of Heroes. A special hot bowl for heroes who contributed to the salvation of the world. But it is not only a place where they can relax, but also a gateway to the final destination of their journey. Courtyard of the Three Seasons. It is said that each bathing bowl in the Marble Palace gives a unique blessing so that visitors to the bath can feel the healing effects of different oceans. In reality, each bowl simply has a different water temperature. Relaxation Hall. Here, the people gather after enjoying the peace of the bathhouse's springs to taste the honeyed nectar and delicacies blessed by Fagusa at a joyful feast in the last days of the world. The Bowl of Plenty. The largest bathing bowl in the Marble Palace. It is said that Fagusa herself used to bathe here with everyone, and the water from the spring would gush forth. The lively atmosphere will make you feel a surge of energy. The Marble Palace. A huge bathhouse blessed by Fagusa, where people gather to enjoy the honeyed nectar at feasts, debates, and merriment. The Marble Fair. An important place visited daily by the people of Ochema. The colorful stalls of the fair inspire the townspeople, allowing them to forget for a while that discord rages outside the city walls. Kephala Square. This square was built in memory of the miracles of Cephalus. Here his numerous followers pray and the townspeople hang around.

Mydei is the demigod and the owner of "immortal body" - that is, he is immortal. I think it's obvious but Mydei is insanely strong and his power is capable of destroying everything around him. There is a legend that in Kremnos it is customary to feed their bodies with the fresh blood of fallen enemies, but this is just a legend. At least Mydei prefers pomegranate juice. Initially, Mydei did not plan to accept Nicador's divine authority and conceded it to Fainon, but he failed the flame core test and was stuck in a nightmare. Mtdei rescued his friend and took the core of the flame, becoming a demigod. After that, he ordered the surviving Crusaders to stay in Ohema and forget the bloody traditions of their homeland. Krater — is a mentor and protector for Mydei, a former friend of Mydei's mother, Gorgo. Krater trained the Crown Prince in military matters and kept the promise made to Gorgo: he protected Mydei and kept him and the crown. According to the plot of the game, Krater showed perseverance and expressed a desire for Mydeus to accept divine authority, become king and return home. However, Mydei is tormented by fears and doubts. Mydei believes that this is the best thing he could do for his people, because the endless and often senseless slaughter so typical of the Crusaders simply does not have a normal future. And he wishes his people peace and prosperity. Mydei has many titles: Ambassador of a healthy lifestyle on Amphorae; Top 10 most beautiful faces of Amforeus; Vice-champion of the Ohema Arm Wrestling Tournament; Member of the jury of the Ohema Theater Festival; An expert in the ancient language of Kremnos; The main judge of the show "Kitchen of discord: Culinary battles"; The most desirable companion on a desert island; The most desirable man in the role of a leader. Mydei's only weak point is the tenth chest vertebra. Only a blow to the back can kill him. In fact, Mydei is afraid of tickling.

The Titans of Amphoraeus are the force that has supported and ruled the world since time immemorial. Joys and sorrows of mortals, their knowledge, battles, love, life and death – Everything is connected with divine power. The three titans of creation: Kerkes, Kephale, Mnestia. The three titans of the pillar: Aquila, Georios, Phagusa. Three Titans of calamity: Zagreus, Nicador, Thanatos.

Water in which souls dissolve, darkness Consuming Amphoreus. The Black Current and its creatures nearly destroyed the Eternal Land.

The mysterious Black Swordsman, or Flame Stealer, is a character associated with the black current. The swordsman hunts for flame cores, and his crescent-shaped sword serves as a storage for these cores. In the story, the Swordsman in black overtakes some titpns, for example, Oronis, and forcibly takes her core. The enemy is aware of the Titans and the Zlatii, and he also kills some of them. The goal of the Black Swordsman (Flame Stealer) is to reset the current cycle of Amphoraeus and start a new one (or restart this one). The golden Fleece contains a description of a Black Swordsman, who is supposedly a Phainon and is in a time loop.

The eternal sacred city of Okhema — is the current capital of Amphorae and the only city that remained unscathed after the disaster on the planet, which is called the black current. The black current not only drove the Titans crazy, it forced people to fight each other, and also physically consumed space. Ohema is the headquarters of the Zlatii, an organization that hunts for the flame cores of the Titans and is about to take control of Amphoreus by nominating 12 new demigods. In Ohema, the Senate (the council of elders with voting rights) is in charge of everything. The Senate often makes not very sound decisions, but Aglaya has levers of pressure on this body. The secret of the prosperity of Ohema lies in the fact that the Cephalic Titan, propping up the world, was able to protect the city from the black current at the cost of its capacity, and since then plunged into eternal sleep.

The Kremnos Castrum — is a huge mobile fortress in which Nikador, the Titan of Strife, has long been worshiped. Iron discipline and a fight to the death are the values ​​that the inhabitants of this city once professed. Now, only the Offspring of Titan, full of hatred, rule there. The Kremnos Castrum is crowned by the Blade of Rage, the sword of the Titan Nicador, which is fueled by the souls of fallen warriors. Interestingly, in the Kremnos Castrum there was a tradition of inheriting power through the assassination of the ruler by his heir. This was feared by King Euripon, who had previously killed his father and taken his place. As a result, the son of Euripon, Mydeas, was thrown from a high cliff.

Janusopolis — is the polis of the three Titans of Fate: Oronis (Time), Talanta (Justice) and Janus (Gates). The now-destroyed city used to be a haven for priests and fortune tellers, where Tribios was the supreme oracle. The priests of Janusopolis tried to stay out of politics, focusing on predicting the future. The policy is now consumed by eternal night.

Grove of the Muses — is a partner academy of Ohema. It searches for the core of the Kerkes flame and conducts advanced research on phenomena like Titans or the black current. In addition, the Grove provides academic support for the journey of Those Pursuing the Flame. The wise men live here: it is there that the scientist Zlatius, Professor Anaxagoras, nicknamed the Stupid, lives. However, on Amphoreus, the Grove of Muses has a scientific rather than a cultural purpose. We can read a bit of Laura Grove in the set of Relics of the Tree of Deep Thought. The Grove of the Muses is divided into several schools of sages: The Cognitive School oversees research and experiments. The school of lotophages manages the gardens of medicinal plants and nutrition. Schools of hornologists study forests and strange animals. The Uzelkov School manages books and archives. The worshipers' school conducts important rituals. The Stonemason School is responsible for physical training. The Red Clay School manages art education.

Styxia — is another ruined polis of Amphoreus, but it did not fall from the black current. Styxia has long since sunk into oblivion. This happened after the rebirth of Kastoria, who had ravaged her native lands in madness. Also mentioned in this ballad is the River of Souls, which no living person can cross (but the Mydei could!). Previously, Styxia lived under the protection of the Titanide Ocean Phagusa. Today, Polis is dead and surrounded by a River of Souls, and on its streets, among the ruins, you can find the remains of a huge dragon.

Aydonia — is "a land that worships death (Thanatos, the Titanide of Death), Aydonia, where snow swirls forever, is now immersed in sweet peace." In the description of the trailer about the Titans, Aydonia is also referred to as snowy. This is a very harsh land where life is valued more than anything else in the world.

First question: Mr. Mydei, you are the Crown Prince of Kremnos, could you tell us about your past?

"The previous king of Kremnos used the prophecy as an excuse to throw me into the sea of ​​souls as a sacrifice to the titan. In my earliest memories, life consisted of fighting and battling monsters in the abyss, from dawn to nightfall, over and over again. Rare moments of hope came at low tide, when it was possible to collect shells and fish. The taste was hardly pleasant, but at least it saved me from hunger. After leaving the sea of ​​souls, I decided that it wasn't worth remembering. Now it seems to me that even in the most difficult times there is still a chance of survival."

The second question is: What feelings did you experience when you left the sea of ​​souls and returned home?

"The familiar rust smell in the air hadn't changed. Kremnos have a tradition that they are proud of: at the Kremnos Festival, the winner, regardless of origin, gets the right to challenge the tsar. The honor of dying during battle proves inflexibility and loyalty, but it also harbors blindness and treachery. The former king used this right to kill my grandfather, but he himself did not escape the same fate... ha, strife is truly an endless dead end."

Third question: It is said that you led your people through many battles during the time of strife. What was your life like then?

"In the days of our wanderings, we celebrated victories more than once and held modest feasts. Pomegranate honey nectar, toasted beef ribs, cheese bread... The familiar tastes of the motherland and the time spent cooking relieved physical and mental fatigue, allowing us to rush into the next battle with renewed vigor. But in this dying world, gripped by a black tide, most battles end in blood and casualties. Ladon, Aydonia, Enius... my comrades-in-arms left us one by one, finding their last refuge in a foreign land. Even if the titan of strife has fallen, the conflict between humans and the gods is far from over."

Fourth question: The journey of the Flame Chasers not only united the heroes, but also connected Kremnos with Ohema. How do you feel about Ohema?

"We once had a feud with Ohema, but now it's the last remaining pure land. The prosperity and power of Ohema cannot be denied, but still it will not be able to accommodate everyone. Obstacles between people, hatred, obsession... the scars left by the war cannot be easily erased. But wherever I am, until the last drop of my blood is shed, I will never allow my subjects to make senseless sacrifices."

"Hephaestion, Pertikas, Leon, Ptolemy and Pevkest. Ever since I returned from the sea of ​​souls, they have been with me. In exile, we overcome all difficulties, and for better or worse, we were always together. Those ten years were hard, but I have nothing more precious than them. Every evening we gathered around the campfire, drank honey nectar and sang as if for the last time. They all died even before the lone unit from Kremnos joined Ohema. In the wild lands of Amphorae, the wind smells of rust. Hephaestion scolded me, they say, who dilutes honey nectar with goat's milk. He said I was ruining his rich scarlet color. Hephaistion is skinny, but on the battlefield it immediately becomes clear how deceptive his appearance is. There was an unimaginable power hidden in him — thanks to her, he crushed the enemy in the blink of an eye. Pertikas was an excellent medicine cook, and he learned a lot of strange recipes from traditional medicine. Leon was the fastest runner. He was the most reliable messenger. Ptolemy is a true bookworm. He was always talking about literature. When we left Kremnos, he stole a stack of ancient folios from the Great Library. This library belongs to my family anyway, so, well, I stole and stole, what's the difference. And finally Pevkest... Hehe! He was always a silent man, but he played music so well!

Pertikas left us first. He was wounded in the stomach by a poisonous arrow from the Palm warriors in the second month of cultivation, the fourth month. As a result, Pertikas' medications helped everyone except himself. Leon died in the fifth winter. The blizzard in Aydonia raged for three months. On the night when the blizzard was particularly merciless, we were attacked. The city of madmen. In the face of death, they are as fearless as the Crusaders, however, unlike us, honor means nothing to them. They drove us into a bottomless swamp."

"Leon was covering our retreat. His enemies cut off his legs. Leon's body disappeared into the swamps of a foreign land, and it is unknown where it is now. Twenty sunsets later, Aydonia finally fell. We took into account that the usurper asked to resolve everything peacefully. However, the rebels refused to surrender and set up an ambush. Ptolemy and his cavalry did not even have time to enjoy the taste of victory. The rebels blew up the obelisks, they collapsed. It was in their wreckage that my comrades-in-arms found their resting place. Then Pevkest. With his music, he lured the enemy into Enius: he wanted to buy us some time. When the enemies saw through our plan, they boiled with anger. They set fire to the whole city, and with it, my warriors. Pevkest... His last words were preserved on a small clay tablet, which cracked due to the high temperature: "We measured, put on the crown." And finally, my most loyal friend, Hephaestion... He should have stayed with me... until the very end. But suddenly his old illness worsened, and it happened on the eve of my battle with my father. He hid everything from me. When I returned victorious, he was already on his deathbed. "We measured... Our king... Don't cry for me. It's not appropriate for you."

Mydei and Phainon met after the Titan of Strife Nikador finally went mad and attacked his people. Mideas went wandering with the remnants of Kremnos' army, until he met the Pursuing Flames led by Phainon on his way. Then a legendary battle began between them, which lasted ten days and ten nights. In the book Tales of the Heroes of Amphoraeus in the Whirlwind of Creation, this incident is described as follows: It was the first meeting between the Crown Prince and the hero. The two warriors fought for ten days and ten nights until the battle came to an end. No one was able to snatch victory for themselves, and no one was defeated. Phainon managed to gain the respect of Mydei, convince him to join the Pursuing Flames and go with his people to Okhema. The Crown Prince of Kremnos agreed to this, but refused to form an alliance with Phainon and "his kind." Then Mydei was looking for a place where the Crusaders could wait out the hard times, and nothing more. The more time Mydei spent in Okhem, the more he came to know and respect Faenon. The heroes began to grow closer - they were united not only by the mission to find the cores of the flame, but also by a similar past. The homeland of both of them was destroyed, and their relatives and friends died or were killed. Although Okhema accepted them both, they felt lonely. After the appearance of Mydei, Fainon stopped being alone. The men were not only the strongest warriors of Okhema and participated in many battles together, but also constantly engaged in friendly duels, trying to surpass each other. Gradually, Mydei got used to his new home and eventually decided to leave his people in Okhem so that people could live there and feel safe.

In the end, Mydei made a final decision: to break the royal dynasty of Kremnos, to put an end to all traditions and disasters. The path of discord is one - death, senseless bloodshed and blind deaths. He had long been tormented by doubts about whether all this nonsense about "it is better to die in battle than to return having accepted honors" really makes sense. Mydei did not want such a fate for the survivors of his people, did not want the Kremnosians to again take this bloody path, called "military honor". This is not honor, this is idiocy. So when he took on the forces of discord and became the new most powerful god, the Great Mydeimos renounced his title of king so that his people would not die like ants for senseless purposes. And then he returned home, all alone, to fight the black current and protect the lands of Amphoreus...to die again and again, and return from the clutches of death. But even lions leave forever, right?

The Amphoraeus Cycle is a concept of the cyclical history of the planet Amphoraeus. According to the research of the scientist Anaxagoras, Amphoreus lives an infinite number of cycles. Each time the cycle changes, the Zlatiuses, who have gained divinity, are reborn into new Titans, losing their memories of the past. Everything repeats itself: the golden age, disasters, and the black tide with the madness of the Titans. The next generation of Zlatius opposes the gods and takes the flame cores from them, launching a new round of history.
