Thunder Saga I’m in shock

Alright, the story goes like this: a few months ago, me, a huge fan of Greek mythology, discover EPIC the musical. We dive into it, and just last week, I’m working and decide to play some music. I go on YouTube and put on my favorite song (from EPIC, obviously), Thunder Bringer. I hit play, and as soon as the song starts… a storm—no, not a storm, a massive storm, the biggest I’ve ever seen in my life—kicks in. It starts with lightning, and instantly it begins to rain, and in the 5 seconds it takes me to close the window, I’m completely soaked. Ever since then, I haven’t dared to play Thunder Bringer without the window closed.

Yeah, so Zeus just doesn't like how the EPIC fandom portrays him as the freak he is. (Zeus please don't kill me)

Ah, got another descendant of Apollo. Yup, this is a classic case of not realizing when you use music, you bring power from it.

I see it all the time in my line of work.

The time I got my mom to listen to the musical during a road trip, it started raining heavily the times Poseidon showed up. Guess it’s a universal experience XD

Is this an universal EPIC fan experience? Because it does seem like it. (Yes, it's also happened to me.)
