At the end of 1944, when Germany is closer to losing the War, whether in the West against the Americans, the British and their allies or in the East against the Soviets, an "unforeseen hope" was proposed to the Reich High Commander. Colonel Reichmann, member of the Lodge of Tulé, is sent to Greece, still divided by the conflict, in the depths of the vast mythological country, in order to find there a weapon which should allow the 3rd Reich to reverse the course of War. Briefed by Professor Hikaru Nagatumo, an ally sent by Japan, the colonel moves there with a whole army, composed of both fanatics of Nazism and young recruiteds by force. However, what they'll awaken in their time-pressed research, and the fear of the Russian's arrival, will make them realize that their stinking ideology has no place in this world. The consequences of the horrors they'll begin to perpetrate on these ancient lands will be felt later in the world for a very long time to come, for the very tough Mythology !
