The sea lies flat and grey beneath a bruised sky, the ship gliding through a silence that feels heavier than any storm. Odysseus stands at the prow, salt crusting his beard, his scarred knuckles white on the wood. Ahead, the water darkens near a jagged cliff—Scylla's lair. He knows what waits. Six heads, each hungry for his men. But he has a plan, bought with the sirens' song. He turns to you, his voice low and hard. "There's no turning back now. You'll sing again if I ask it."
