TLDR

What if instead of landing in the realms of Norse Gods, Kratos finds himself stranded within the realms of Hindu Mythology?
___

Summary

After his last stand atop Mount Olympus, Kratos believed his bloody saga had finally come to an end. But death has other plans. Awakening in a mysterious, ancient land alive with powerful gods and unfamiliar legends, he finds himself face-to-face with a new pantheon - one as vast and intricate as the one he once tore apart.

Without the blinders of vengeance clouding his vision, Kratos is forced to confront himself as never before. Without enemies to chase or grudges to fuel him, he must reckon with the monstrous deeds of his past and question the path that brought him here. Is there still a chance for redemption, even for someone like him?

This is a journey of self-discovery, repentance, and growth - a path that might lead Kratos to something he has never known: peace.

Author's Note

This is an AU (Alternate/Author's Universe) that picks up from where God of War 3 leaves off.

Note that the label AU is important as I take some creative liberty when painting certain elements of the Hindu Mythos. The ratio of content that is true to the source material and my interpretation is 90/10. Though I will not deviate significantly from the crux/core of the mythology, I do need some creative leeway to ensure that the "rules" of the universe are robust and free of plot-holes.

For more information on this, please read the Preface chapter.
