[4K] Age of Mythology: Extended Edition - [Game Movie]
Unlike the campaign modes in Age of Empires and Age of Empires II, Age of Mythology has only one central campaign, Fall of the Trident. This tells the story of Arkantos, an Atlantean admiral who is sent on a quest to regain favor from Poseidon, god of the Atlanteans.
Arkantos’ quest takes him to the Trojan War, where he meets Ajax, Agamemnon, and Odysseus and helps them to win the war. He then continues his travels and meets Chiron, who advises him to pursue the cyclops Gargarensis, a devotee of Poseidon. Arkantos, Ajax, and Chiron travel through the Underworld in their search for Gargarensis, and end up in Egypt.
In Egypt, Arkantos meets Amanra, a mercenary queen, who asks for his help in a domestic matter. He obliges, and helps her to defeat an ally of Gargarensis, Kemsyt. While in Egypt, Arkantos learns the truth about Gargarensis: he hopes to gain immortality by freeing the Titan Kronos from Tartarus. He continues north, still in search of Gargarensis.
In the Norse lands, Arkantos meets Reginleif, a Valkyrie, and together they attempt to prevent Ragnarök from taking place. They encounter Gargarensis again, and he traps them in a small valley with no escape. In this valley, they must survive onslaughts from Gargarensis’ forces, and wait for aid from Odysseus.
While the heroes are fighting Gargarensis’ forces, he establishes himself in Atlantis, locking up its former leaders. To conclude the campaign, Arkantos and his allies march on Atlantis, and Zeus bestows his blessing upon Arkantos, giving him the power to defeat Poseidon and Gargarensis. Arkantos uses this power to kill a living Statue of Poseidon and Gargarensis. Poseidon, enraged that he failed, destroys Atlantis. Arkantos is unable to escape but is immortalized by Athena and becomes a god.
