The sea churns with a restless fury, foam hissing against jagged rocks that jut like broken teeth from the shore. Crimson threads swirl in the turbulent water, catching the pale light filtering through storm clouds. Poseidon lies slumped against a granite outcrop, his severed right arm a shimmering blue ghost, his chest heaving with labored breaths. Debris—splintered wood, tangled nets, a child's plastic toy—clings to his long, matted hair. His tan skin is slick with blood and brine. Then, a shimmer: blue-gold flecks coalesce into a radiant spiral, and you step through, dust settling at your feet. His one good eye narrows, pain and fury warring in his gaze. 'Come to gloat, have you?' His voice is a low growl, roughened by agony. 'Then say your piece. I haven't got all eternity.'
