Plot
Lead Arkantean Admiral, Arkantos, arrives at Atlantis after several years of warfare to see his son Kastor. However, he is ordered by the Atlantis' councilman, Krios, to sail to Troy to assist Agamemnon in the Trojan War. However, just then, the island is attacked by the Black Sails, a group of pirate bandits lead by the minotaur Kamos, who is a fierce enemy to Arkantos. After Poseidon's statue trident is stolen during the raid, Arkantos raids the Black Sail settlement at an island close to Atlantis, where he recovers the trident, although Kamos escapes and vows revenge against him, before sailing away on a leviathan. Arkantos sends the trident back to Atlantis. While Kastor wants to go with Arkantos to battle, Arkantos advises him to go back home, and sails away.
Arkantos travels to Greece to assist Agamemnon. After a series of skirmishes against Troy, fighting alongside Ajax and Odysseus, they devise the plan involving Trojan Horse and swiftly win the war. Afterwards, Ajax recommends Arkantos to sail to Ioklos (home of the centaur Chiron) to repair his ships, which are too heavily damaged for the trip back to Atlantis. When they arrive however, the port has been raided. They search the base and discover that the Black Sail pirates have destroyed the port, and saves Chiron and some of the prisoners. Chiron reveals that they have been enslaved by a man named Kemsyt, who is leading the Black Sails.
Chiron takes them north to locate the prisoners, who are being forced to dig up an entrance to the underworld under Gargarensis, a cyclops warlord and commander of both Kemsyt and also Kamos, who is also there. They destroy Gargarensis's base and confront him, but he escapes to the underworld of Tartarus using the entrance. The heroes enter Tartarus, where they find a huge battering ram commanded by Gargarensis, which is trying to burst open a large door in the stone. Cautious of his motives, they destroy the battering ram. However, Gargarensis confronts them in his anger and causes a cave to collapse, forcing them to find another way out. With the help of the dead, they reach three temples dedicated to the Greek gods of Poseidon, Zeus and Hades. Arkantos prays to Atlantis' patron Poseidon to help them, since Poseidon is the God of the Atlantean people, but is refused. Arkantos goes and prays to Zeus, who creates a huge staircase to reach the surface.
Reaching the surface, they find themselves in Egypt, where they help a Nubian mercenary named Amanra into fighting Kemsyt, who is there to steal a relic that Amanra's men are digging. She reveals that the Egyptian god Osirishas been killed by Set, who aids Gargarensis. Amanra, however, plans to reunite Osiris's body parts scattered throughout the desert, bringing him back. During this time. Arkantos falls asleep and is met by Athena, who reveals Gargarensis's motives:
Ages before, Earth was ruled by Titans, mystical giant beings under command of Kronos, the head God, and they ravaged the lands. Zeus stopped Kronos and had him imprisoned in Tartarus, revealing that Kronos himself is behind the gates. However, Poseidon, who is envious of Zeus's power over humans, is trying to free Kronos and the Titans in order to destroy Zeus so he could claim the throne. Gargarensis is aiding him in freeing Kronos because Poseidon will grant him immortality as a reward. Athena asks Arkantos to stop Gargarensis at all costs, because Zeus himself cannot interfere against Gargarensis.
In order to stop him, Arkantos travels with Ajax, while Amanra and Chiron go their separate ways to find the pieces. Amanra goes up north, where she finds Kemsyt's fortress on an small island. With the aid of the village on the shores next to the island, she captures the piece, but Kemsyt escapes. Chiron finds another piece hidden beneath a giant tree, and he is aided by Norsemen, who arrived there to stop Ragnarok, and he captures the piece. Meanwhile, Arkantos and Ajax find the last piece in Kamos' fortress. Arkantos raids the fortress, secures the piece, and mortally wounds Kamos with a spear, who falls to his death on the cliffs.
After gathering all the pieces, all four of them arrive near Osiris' pyramid, which houses the second entrance to Tartarus. After reuniting, they all build separate forts and raid the city, gathering all four pieces to resurrect Osiris. However, Gargarensis appears with his army. He mocks them, saying that Osiris is dead and they cannot bring him back to him, but fortunately, all four pieces reunite and Osiris returns. Using his powers, he singlehandedly defeats Gargarensis' army and seals the entrance. Enraged, Gargarensis escapes.
Chasing Gargarensis north, Ajax and Arkantos find Odysseus's wrecked ship, and so decide to land to look for him. Upon landing, both men are turned into boar by the sorcerer Circe. Ajax and Arkantos proceed to rescue Odysseus and his men who have also been cursed by Circe, destroying her fortress in the process. They leave Odysseus with his ship to help him sail home, while Arkantos and Ajax set sail further on to the Norse lands.
When they reach the north, they are given directions to the underworld by dwarf brothers Brokk and Eitri in return for repelling giants from their forge. Later, an elderly man named Skult gives them a banner which is to reunite the Norse clans. However, when the flag is shown, the clans become hostile towards them due to the flag being that of the enemy giant Folstag (a trick by Skult who is actually Loki in disguise) who also allied with Gargarensis.
With the help of the Valkyrie Reginleif, who sent the Norsemen to Egypt, they locate Gargarensis and the Tartarus gate. Inside they are pursued by fire giants until Chiron sacrifices himself to save them. While Gargarensis is at the gate, Brokk and Eitri have been rebuilding Thor's hammer (shattered by Loki), that upon completion seals the gate, angering Gargarensis. Back on the surface, they confront Gargarensis with the help of Odysseus, where the cyclops is captured and executed.
Arkantos sails back to Atlantis. When he brings out Gargarensis's head on the ship, he finds he has been tricked by Loki. The head is actually Kemsyt's. Gargarensis is still alive and is trying to break the final gate holding Kronos, which is at the centre of Atlantis. Gargarensis has captured and fortified Atlantis, and Poseidon himself has possessed a statue in the city center to protect him. Arkantos builds a wonder to Zeus and gains his blessing, giving him god-like power and enabling him to confront Gargarensis and the Living Statue at the temple of Poseidon.
With his new powers, Arkantos defeats the Avatar of Poseidon, and Gargarensis is impaled by its trident as it collapses. All of Atlantis then collapses into the ocean, along with Arkantos. While the remaining heroes sail away with the surviving Atlanteans, Athena revives Arkantos and rewards him by making him a god.(From Wikipedia)
