Features: The prologue of The Lord of the Rings states: "History becomes legend, legend becomes myth." The implication is that myths and legends may contain the truth of history. In the real world, there was also such a person who, with unwavering faith in myths and legends throughout his life and through lifelong toil, uncovered the truth of the myth and restored history to its original form, while also achieving a legend of his own. A war, an epic. A person, a legendary city. A dream, the beginning and end of a myth. – This is the story of Schliemann and Troy.
