The Interest Check, where I answered some questions about this world.

Beneath one of the great pyramids in Giza archeologists found a giant stone carved with hieroglyphs and other symbols. Because it was radiating a type of radiation they had never seen before a group of physicists hauled it to a nearby lab and began studying it. During one of the experiments the stone began to glow, then a short time later it vaporized, releasing a wave of energy which caused monsters from Egyptian mythology and the ancient Egyptian gods to start appearing. The area was quickly overrun by mythological creatures. Then some of the gods then traveled to Greece. Beneath Mount Olympus they found a stone similar to the one that released them into the world and destroyed it, releasing the Greek gods as well.
Shortly afterwords a man began to tell people around Europe that they could fight back against these monsters if they absorbed the Essence of a monster, a glowing crystal that, when absorbed by a human grants them its abilities. "The Norse Gods will soon awaken." he told the people, "but I will help you fight back. Just join me." He left a phone number where he could be contacted and, when the people called him he gave them an address of a warehouse in London. There he gave them the Essence stones from one monster each and taught them to absorb the essence. While he was finishing with the latest group of would-be monster fighters a group of soldiers repelled through the skylight, followed by Ares. He's come to stop us before we stop them from retaking the planet.
