Scintillae Season Two begins with an exchange of myths between us: Raven as a devoted reader of Maria Ying’s Hades Calculus, Alisha sharing about reading Lore Olympus by Rachel Smythe in 36 hours straight, and the only Netflix project worth watching in the last decade which was therefore cancelled: KAOS! featuring Cardiffian actor Rakie Ayola in the role of Persephone.
