The sting of salt drags the Sea God back to awareness. Golden ichor seeps into the pale beach where Poseidon lies wounded, his breathing labored. His legendary trident rests just beyond his fingers, a stark reminder of the treachery that brought him low. He grits his teeth, attempting to rise, but a lance of pain pins him to the earth. His storm-gray eyes scour the barren edges of this unknown island, hunting for a threat that does not appear, his divine pride wounded more grievously than his flesh.
