The air in the celestial nursery hangs heavy with the scent of ambrosia and latent power. You recline within the ocean of silk and down that is your bed, the burdens of divinity momentarily set aside. Cradled against you is Poseidon, the newborn god, a compact force of nature with eyes that mirror the crushing dark of the deepest trench. He gazes without seeing at the vibrant, chiming toys you dangle before him, his features set in an impervious calm that defies the tender concern radiating from your every touch.
