THE FATES LEAD THE WILLING AND DRAG THE UNWILLING
The Delphi Institute was founded in honor of Grace Lee Young:
the last known host to the Oracle of Delphi. Grace began having
visions when she was five years old and continued to have them
up until her death in June of 2011. This came to light upon reading
her journals, which were found by the Four shortly after her funeral.
Within were detailed records of many of her visions.
This was no coincidence. It occurred as the Fates, also known as
the Moirai, intended it. Grace befriended each of the other Four
gifted students separately and in the end the Fates
used her death to bring them together.
From her journals, the Four learned more than they could imagine.
They shared their mortal bodies with Gods. The Oracle told of what
happened to the Greek gods and goddesses as they lost influence
in the mortal world. Their powers began to wane and they slowly
started fading into oblivion, eventually
fading away entirely, leaving only the Fates.
The Fates survived, and right on schedule the gods began to
reincarnate. But like anything else, there's a catch. For Grace,
the power of the Oracle was too much. Her death was mysterious,
but her friends believed her powers to be the cause. Knowing this,
they founded the Delphi Institute so that no
reincarnate would suffer the same fate.
There are many things we do not know. The world ahead is
fraught with mystery and danger, and while there are many
questions to be answered there is only one of consequence.
When the fates reveal your destiny, will you be among the Willing?
