Summary

We've finally made it to the end of the first book of Herodotus' Histories. It's been a wild ride folks, with all those twists and turns, but it ends with a bang. God it ends to well, I'm so happy. Thank you all for having me! And here's the the next time I see you all <3

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. I try to provide direct warnings when there is reference to anything with overtly traumatic themes but be aware that Greek mythology regularly features assault, death, and many other potentially triggering events.
