When I Read The Odyssey, I Stumbled Upon One Of My Favorite Epithets: "the One Of Thundering Voice",

When I read The Odyssey, I stumbled upon one of my favorite epithets: "the one of thundering voice", for Zeus. It was perfect. Not just because it's related to thunder, which is, well, obvious, but because it implies Zeus has a very deep voice, similar to thunder. Have you ever listened to a thunderstorm? Those things sound deep and low.

Then we have Epic the musical, and Zeus here sounds exactly like one would imagine from that epithet. His voice is not only low, but his notes spread, like there is echo, like thunder when it resonates through a valley.

This was already noticeable when he appeared in the first song, but in the saga that is basically named after him, it really shows.

alright so THOUGHTS ON THE THUNDER SAGA

I was already expecting going in to wanna make the first two songs (for obvious reasons) and to make a Scylla one bc that was the one I was the most excited about, but for some reason ALL of the songs are BANGERS????? LIKE BEYOND REALLY GOOD??? All of them are very dramatic and story heavy, so yea I'm kinda lost I want to make an animatic for every single song now

What I will do for now is work on Suffering + Different Beast, and after that I'll see how this goes. Original plan is to make all of the songs in order!

Suffering will probably look a bit simple, and that is because I want to release this and Different Beast in the same video! A five minute animatic. AGAIN LET`S SEE HOW THIS GOES. In the meantime have this drawing of Penelope in the water, don't worry you can trust her
