EPICS are totally epic

Definition:


Epics are long narratives that tell stories with descriptive and old English about a journey and adventure of great heroes.

Example:


By the shore of Gitchie Gumee,
By the shining Big-Sea-Water,
At the doorway of his wigwam,
In the pleasant Summer morning,
Hiawatha stood and waited.
