Cool how some of our oldest stories basically illustrate when sequels work ("what if instead of another epic war we spun off what happened to Agamemnon, then covered themes of justice and vengeance for a few plays") and when they don't ("what if Beowulf fought Grendel's mom? How about a dragon?").
@Leucrotta my brain:
🎶 Grendel's mom has got it going on 🎶
(we don't even know the tune or any of the other lyrics)
