Summary
My version of Kratos's life story, told from childhood up until the very end of God of War 3, with all the drama of a Greek tragedy.
Born to a family in disgrace, Kratos has no hope of ever joining the ranks of the elite Spartan army. Until, one day, Kratos catches the eye of one of the most powerful men in all of Sparta. Taken on as his pupil, Kratos is determined to prove his worth as a warrior. As he rises through the ranks and defeats foe after foe, it seems to all the world that this fearsome man with the red tattoo is unstoppable.
Only the ultimate sacrifice will satisfy the gods and grant Kratos the power he craves, and only after being given that power does he realizes that he cannot possibly pay the price.

Patterns often repeat across pantheons. Thunder gods are not typically decent parents, and we all know how that turned out for Zeus when one of his many bastard children came for his head. Far north of the lands of Greece, another thunder god makes his own mistakes in raising his children. He hits his daughter a bit harder than fate intended.
Meanwhile, Kratos finds an injured girl in a crater, and things begin to go as no seer ever predicted.

Summary
Kratos feels a mysterious call to Egypt and, fearing for his son's safety, sets out in search of him. Upon arrival, he discovers that the land is engulfed in a war between the Medjai and the Sons of Seth. As a member of the Council of Realms, he cannot interfere directly, but he soon senses the hidden influence of a goddess in this conflict.
Meanwhile, Atreus meets a new and enigmatic friend, whose secrets seem as deep as Egypt's own mysteries. He decides to pause his search for the Giants to better understand what is happening—only to realize that forces far greater than he imagined are at play.
The inevitable reunion between father and son leads them to fight alongside the Medjai against the Sons of Seth. But when Kratos finally uncovers the truth, everything changes: his long-lost daughter has forged a new identity and become part of this war.
Now, Kratos is not only battling the war around him but also the one within. Can he still save her, or is it already too late?

"Keep practicing, and you'll get better. If you keep practicing with the sand, you'll be better at casting illusions." Angrboda added, as she took the sculpture from his hands and placed it down.

Summary
The snow falls lightly, coating everything with a soft layer of its white coating or adding small amounts to the large blanket that has covered Midgard.
Fimbulwinter has been difficult on everyone, and everything. Food is scarce, water is easier all things considered, but the cold has been unforgiving. Many times on these little expeditions has Atreus come across dead animals, either killed or simply starved to death. It’s a normal part of life, of nature, but he still feels sorry for the poor things.

Summary
Years ago, Oedipus approached an oracle, seeking his fate.
Now a similar fate comes to Kratos in dreams.
(Or, three times Kratos should've said 'I love you' + one time he finally does.)
Verisimilitude. Still here. In his arms. Atreus, in his arms. One last time.
Last?
Atreus’ hand, still atop his.
Kratos slips out—
Please don’t go.
—and places his hand on Atreus’.
I won’t.
