If you want to write something completely unique, you will probably fail or at best write something without redeeming value.

Gods colliding, ethos and mythos trying to combine. The Sacred Band caught up in a whirlwind not of any god's devising: he and Niko had wanted to save twenty-three pairs of fated Theban fighters. Now everything feels fated and fighting oversweeps its boundaries of time and place and plane.

What would the world be without him, and those like him?
Janet Morris

So well do I love you, I go to my god singing your praises. When I meet my father, I will tell him I fought beside you.
