Overbold Leucippos
The great warrior Leucippus, son of Xanthios, son of Ther-
miles. Leucippus, whose lineage goes back to Bellerophon, was
fearless, just like his cousins Sarpedon and Glaukos.. However,
the eyes of the hero, who fell in love due to a trouble caused by
the gods, one day turns so dark that he does not see either his
brother or his father.
Leucippos, who will in the future become a great hero,
spent his childhood in the fertile Xanthos Valley, fed by the
Eşen Stream, with his cousins Sarpedon and Glaukos. Leucip-
pos, who took his power and strength from his heroic lineage,
achieved great success in all the wars he fought in his youth.
In fact, Leucippos gained such a reputation that his fame cir-
culated throughout his country, Lycia. However, one day, the
beautiful Aphrodite caused great trouble to the hero and made
Leucippus fall in love with his own sister. From that moment on,
the hero’s whole life changed.
The moment the great hero became aware of his feelings for
his sister, at first he thought it was a passing passion. There-
upon, Leucippos, who did not care much about the situation,
tried to keep himself away from his sister. However, what the
protagonist feelt was love beyond passion. Because Aphrodite
had Leucippus shot in the heart with the arrow of her son Eros.
When Leucippos realized his true feelings and wants to escape
from the situation he finds himself in, it is too late for everything.
For Leucippos, who realized that he was deeply in love with
his sister, the times he spent without seeing his sister became
unbearable for him. Upon this, the hero, who cannot bear this
situation any longer, goes to his mother and asks for help to
satisfy this desire, and says that otherwise he will commit sui-
cide. Surprisingly, his mother gets angry at first, but because
she does not want her son to commit suicide, she brings Leu-
cippos and her daughter together. And the trouble caused by
Aphrodite comes true, and the two begin to have a great love.
Until someone tells the whole situation to her real betrothed.
