Within the golden treasury of ancient Greek mythology lies a forgotten secret—Phaethon, the illegitimate son of Helios the Sun God, a youth who dared to challenge the cosmic order. When mockery echoed through the marketplace, when the label of "bastard" followed him like a shadow, he made a world-changing decision: to drive his father's solar chariot and prove his divine bloodline in a single day. But when the four stellar steeds sensed his mortal blood, when the runaway sun began scorching the earth and freezing the oceans, when Zeus's lightning gathered in the clouds, Phaethon finally realized—some powers cannot be wielded, even by a demigod. This is not merely a tale of pride and downfall, but a legend of paternal love, sacrifice, and eternity. In amber-colored tears, in the river's embrace, the truth shall be preserved forever...
