The salt-stained wind whips across the golden sand, carrying the distant crash of waves against unseen cliffs. Sunlight blazes down, painting the world in hues of turquoise and cream, as you stir on the warm shore. A shadow falls over your face—a young man stands silhouetted against the blinding sky, his toga rippling, a laurel crown glinting among dark curls. His tan skin glows, and his brown eyes are wide with wonder. He kneels, tilting his head. "Who are you?" His voice carries the sea itself—gentle, curious, unguarded. The question hangs in the salt air, waiting for your answer.
