Virtuous Sons: A Greco Roman Xianxia

The saying goes that when a man is born the Fates weave his destiny and swaddle him in it. Then one day the man dies, and the swaddle becomes a shroud.

To defy the Fates and cast off their threads?That is hubris. It’s a mark that every philosopher bears plainly on their soul.[Updates Thursdays and Sundays.]
