Moments From Epic: the Troy Saga That Shall Live Rent Free In My Brain
The opening lines of The Horse and The Infant
"Who do you live for? Who do you fight for? Who do you wish for? Who do you try for?"
"AND TELEMAAACHUS!!!!!!!!!"
The overlapping of Zeus' and Odysseus' parts
The entirety of Just a Man
"So full speed aheaad!!!"
When Eurylochus first appears
"Watch where the birds fly. They will lead us to land!!!"
"Give me til sunrise, and if we don't return, then six hundred men can make this whole place burn!!"
"I had a challenge, a test of skill. A magic boar only the best could kill. One day a boy came for the thrill. A boy whose mind rivalled the boar's own will."
"Cause you're a warrior of the minddd!!!!!"
"Nah, don't be modest, I know you're a goddess. So let's be honest, You are Athena!! Athena!! Badass in the arena. Unmatched, witty, and queen of the best strategies we've seen."

Just btw I don't know him and he's American so I doubt the show would ever come to the UK, but I am HYPED. There's this one song between Athena and Odysseus and honestly the "Aaron Burr, Sir" vibes WERE UNQUESTIONABLE.

Okey people but like you need to understand how much I rotate Warrior of the Mind from Epic the musical in my head. I love it. I love Athena's theme. I love quick thought. I love Athena. It cured me. I I can't function without it. THE "SHOW YOURSELF I KNOW YOU'RE WATCHING ME SHOW YOURSELF." And "YOU ARE ATHENA! BADASS IN THE ARENA"!!!! THE "I HAD A CHALLENGE THE TEST OF SKILL A MAGIC BOAR ONLY BEST CAN KILL"
The first five songs of the odyssey musical have dropped y’all gotta come listen to this! Jorge Rivera-Herrans and his team have worked super hard on this and I’m so excited for it so y’all now know about it if you didn’t enjoy
I've been messing around in the app, dream (ai art generator) bc I'm bored. Currently, they have art styles for love, death, and robots. Because I love the show, I decided to try the same prompt through different filters to see how each interprets it. Here are my favorites:
