VILLAIN REVEAL - Megaras Villain Song ‘Where Gods Go When They Die’ releases TOMORROW! 💙😈
I’m am so excited to be bringing this series back after a full year has passed since the last one and I am so hyped to start it of with one of my favourite girlies, Megara !
STORY
What if the tale was rewritten? What if Megaras’ sacrifice to Hercules was in vain? What if, instead of forfeiting his own life for Megs, Hercules’ was blinded by bitterness over Megs betrayal? Abandoning her to an eternity in the underworld, while he found another, less altruistic way to ascend to godhood and spent his own eternity amongst the immortals, sitting comfortably beside his father, in a throne of his own. What then happens to Meg? What does she become?…
Well that is indeed how our tale differs from the original. After being abandoned by Hercules and left for dead, Meg finds herself floating down the river Styx. The final resting place for the lost souls of the dead, who are doomed to repeat their worst moments in life over and over again, until all the life is drained from them.
Meg never lost her desire to live though, it burned brightly like a flame that could not be extinguished, fuelled by the hatred she had for the Men and Gods alike who had treated her life as a means to an end.
Every memory she relived added to the fire, Her first love leaving her, Hades manipulating and holding her soul ransom, and the worst, Hercules leaving her under that pillar to die, knowing that every time she called to him, he had heard but had not answered. All these memories fuelled her rage until it burned so hot, the river itself seemed to boil around her.
Charon, the fated ferryman of the river, noticed this anger and plucked her from the waters. No one usually makes it this long in the river. Charon has an agenda of his own, forced to bow to the Olympians when they took over, he hates them just as much as Meg. And so Megara made a deal with the Ferrymen, who told her the secret of the gods immortality and how to take it for her own, in exchange for a seat in her new pantheon.
Armed with forbidden knowledge, Meg steals Hades life essence from him, gaining his powers and leaving what remained of his rotting soul to join the waters of the river.
We meet Meg after she has taken over the Underworld and become one with the Gods as she moves to take over Olympus
SEE YOU TOMORROW

We just hit 1 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS
This is all very surreal, I remember being a kid and thinking how cool it would be to be a YouTuber and have 1 million subscribers and now we’re there??
Thank you SO much to everyone that has supported me over the last few years on YouTube! I see all your lovely comments and have loved chatting to you in livestreams and sharing my music for the first time!
Without you I never would have even considered writing my own song let alone creating and releasing a full album and going on tour!
The last few years on YouTube have been a whirlwind and I am eternally grateful for the opportunity I have been given to make and share art.
I haven’t really prepared any kind of celebration video for this milestone so figured this could be a fun time to announce that the villain series returns in SEPTEMBER! It’s been almost a year since we did this series, everybody ready?
