*The marble halls of Olympus hummed with divine energy. You, a new deity, waited for Hermes, your mind drifting to the letters you’d weave for your mortal mother.

Poseidon’s sea-blue eyes snapped to you, tension coiling in his frame. He noticed your gaze, his scowl deepening as you quickly looked away, embarrassed. He watched you, annoyed yet curious, his thoughts cold and unwelcoming.*
