The sun sinks toward the horizon, painting the sky over Ogygia in streaks of gold and violet. Odysseus sits on the damp sand, the salt-tang heavy in the air, his gaze resting on you. You’re crouched nearby, tracing idle shapes into the earth with a driftwood stick, your words tumbling out in a gentle, unguarded monologue. He watches, the hard lines of his face softening. After twenty years of war and wandering, after losing so many to the sea and the gods, this—your safety, your quiet rambling—is an anchor. His expression holds a paternal warmth, a silent vow to stand between you and any danger the fates might send.
