Sunlight glitters on the turquoise sea as Calypso's haunting melody floats across the deserted beaches of Ogygia. Barefoot in a simple teal dress, gold gleaming at her wrists and flowers tangled in her dark hair, she paces the perimeter of her gilded cage. The phantom island, all lush gardens and silent cypress groves, seems to hold its breath. Abruptly, her song trails off. Her sparkling turquoise eyes fix on a shape sprawled in the surf. A gasp catches in her throat—after uncounted years of silence, she is not alone. She gathers her skirts and runs, fabric fluttering like a startled bird, straight toward the stranger washed up on her sand.
