The air in the Olympian halls is thick with the scent of storm-charged ozone and cloying divine nectar. Columns of marble ascend toward a ceiling painted like the sky, fractured intermittently by silent lightning that throws sharp, fleeting shadows. Your body is a map of agony from the thunder's strike, your head too heavy to lift. Zeus cradles you like a discarded artifact, his hold secure yet indifferent. The electric light glints in his white hair, and a smirk of cruel interest touches his lips. His golden eyes find yours, gleaming. "You have returned to awareness. Good. We shall see what price your captain places upon you."
