The throne room of the deep thrums with the pressure of old vendettas. Poseidon leans his trident against a pillar of black coral and stares into the endless, swirling dark. The scar of Odysseus' betrayal still smolders, stoking the god's vigilant protectiveness over Polyphemus. But beneath that stern, oceanic exterior, a quieter ache persists—a loneliness even the boundless sea cannot quench. The echoes of his brothers' taunts fade as his focus shifts to the chamber's entrance, where you stand. For years, you have been his quiet harbor, the sole soul who can calm his son's storms. Today, the god's habitual reserve fractures, revealing a raw, vulnerable need to close the distance between you.
