Revenge of the Titans is a personal project based off the Clash of the Titans (2010) and Wrath of the Titans (2012) film series. This attraction takes guests right into the story of Perseus and his never ending battle in helping the Gods and protecting the Earth from the Titans.
Queue: Guests make their way from a small village in ancient Greece to the temple of Zeus, passing along statues made for the gods and offerings lain around from gold plates, ceramic vases, and even pieces of fruit. A beautiful tune made from a harp plays around as the guests make their way in admiring the stone architecture. Villagers are seen worshiping the gods.
Scene 1: The guests make their way to the back of the temple where a towering statue of Zeus sits with a woman praying at the gods’ feet. The light which had been pouring in from the sides darkens, thunderclaps from within as a black smoke appears around and above the guests. From the smoke a figure appears, Hades, with a snarling grin. “You pray to the wrong God,” he begins, “Zeus can do nothing for you.” He looks over at the guests “Have you heard the story of Gaia? The Mother Earth who’s first born son was my father Cronos the same Titan whom my big brother killed to set myself and our siblings free.” Hades continues to explain the revenge Gaia has been seeking to enact on Zeus for over a millennium for the death of Cronos her last born son by killing his last-born son, Perseus. “Among you he stands, give up the demi-god and you will be spared, but protect him and you will die.” The woman shouts at the God unwilling to cooperate, he laughs at her ignorance. “Head this warning, if Perseus is not given up at by the end of the day by the cliffs of the City of Argos, Gaia will enact her revenge on all of us.” He quickly disappears and light returns to the temple.
Scene 2/Load: The woman turns to the guests and quickly rushes them over to a carriage waiting for them outside the temple. “Perseus will meet with you outside, now hurry go.” The gusts make their way into the wooden carriage, led by a stunning black hoarse and ride off. From a near by ruin Perseus appears and makes a call to stop the hoarse. “I’m sorry for entangling you in all this mess,” he points towards a cave n the distance “there is your destination” he explains “the bottom to Mount Olympus where you must find Zeus lightning Bolt it is the only thing that can stop Gaia.” He then warns of cave monsters within set to protect outsiders and to keep an eye out for them. Perseus signals for the Horse to continue and the guests are off.
Scene 3: The cave feels damp, a cold breeze brushes over the guests as torches aligning the cave walls roar to life. Light fog blankets the ground as the carriage slowly makes its way in. Soft tones of harp play around us, which slowly turns into a low tone hum as the walls around us begin to shift, molten lava appears from its cracks and out of nowhere from the wall a monster made up of half woman half serpent slithers from walls. Her snake infested hair acknowledges her identity “MEDUSA!” Perseus shouts as he jumps from behind the carriage. “Do not look in her eyes!” Medusa’s evil laugh echoes around the guests causing their hairs to rise. The carriage begins to pick up its pace as Medusa slithers right beside trying to entrap the guests. An arrow is shot at her causing her to stop “DON’T STOP, KEEP GOING!” Perseus shouts, golden bow in hand, a nod to his brother Apollo. Medusa hisses as she is seen coming for the demi-god, but Perseus is smarter and shoots another arrow at the cave ceiling causing a chunk of it followed by molten lava to fall just behind the carriage preventing Medusa from reaching the guests.
Scene 4: The dust settles and it’s dark, just pitch-black dark. All that can be heard are the panting breaths of the guests who barely made it out alive. Soon the cave wall begins to crack as golden rays of light break free, words in ancient Greece telling the story of Cronos and Zeus is etched out as a cool breeze comes rushing in. A bright heavenly light appears and from its Zeus appears. “Hello,” he begins “I see Perseus has sent you to recover my bolt,” he smirks “here,” a bolt of lightning forms in his hand “I will place it in Pegasus’s holt.” The horse carrying the carriage neighs as its back shakes off a bit reveling rested wings, its holt beside it glows a bright blue. “Now go off to Argos, meet with Perseus and give him the bolt. It is the only chance we have at stopping Gaia from complete destruction of both the Heavens and Earth.” He gives on last look at the guests “My son has made the right choice in entrusting you with this task and it is you who we shall pray too on Olympus today.” With those final words Zeus and with him the light vanish as the wall with the golden markings crumbles letting the carriage escape and head off to Argos.
Scene 5: Winding the empty streets of Argos the gusts can feel the eerie sense that something big is just around the corner. Perseus appears from behind a wall and applauds us for retrieving the bolt. From across woman dressed in the finest silks covered by a suit for war makes an appearance. “Andromeda,” he introduces her as the Queen of Argo. “My people are evacuating the city, my men are ready for battle,” she smiles “It’s nice to see you again Perseus.” The guests can sense admiration between the two. “We have the bolt, now we just wait,” and as Perseus finishes his sentence the ground begins to shake, the skies darken, the wind begins to pick up, and form the distance a formation of rock in the shape of an arm can be seen shoot up to the sky. “It’s time” Perseus shouts. Andromeda runs off, Pegasus spreads his wings, Perseus points off to Gaia “we only get once chance at this, the bolt must land in her mouth to strike form within her, now go!” and the guests are shot off into the sky.
Scene 6: Flying across the clouds Pegasus leads the guests to where Gaia begins to rise. Avoiding her reach as she tries to bring them down the guests can make out her features, waterfalls for eyes, a huddle of trees for a nose, and mountain range for lips which she uses to release a deafening roar. The guests see Perseus run up to the base of Gaia with the Army of Argos behind him. Pegasus dips down to Perseus. “We only have one shot,” he shouts as he pulls out the bolt “ready?” The guests watch as Gaia turns to face the demigod just as he shoots the bolt over at the titan and right into her gaping mouth. Pegasus quickly pulls away leading the guests away as a boom is heard from behind and pieces of rock fly in the sky beside the carriage.
Scene 7: Pegasus lands the guests back on solid ground right outside a beautifully sculpted temple of the Gods, fire hangs from its entrances with bushes decorated in orchids surround it. Perseus, bruised and covered in dirt walks to us as the Gods Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Athena, Apollo, Aries, and Hades who is held by molten chain appear before the guests. They each bow their heads as Zeus thanks the guests for their bravery in helping his son defeat Gaia and protecting the people and the future of the Earth. “Don’t think heroes are only born made of Gods and Demi-Gods but from man themselves like you today,” Perseus adds on. “And as for my brother, you can find him down beneath the Underworld in Tartarus,” Zeus explains.
Unload: The Gods disappear before the guests’ eyes and Perseus thanks them once more and exclaims he now must go look for Andromeda as the guests begin to unload from the carriage and walk into the temple.
