Chapter 1
Poseidon
We won.
We finally won!
My brothers and sisters are all free, we are all free from our ancestors, yet I still felt the emptiness that consumes my very being, which up until now had no way to get out.
I returned to my senses, from the brooding that I was doing, to look up, right into three deep and heart-felt gazes, each one of the sets had the same colored eyes; white. Getting a good look at them was treaky for they had me hypnotized by their stares but with a willpower like mine I broke free. Other than the color white of their eyes, I tried to look at their wardrobe and found my self questioning my sanity, after all I was stuck in one of my father's cells within his being for centuries, but even though I've only been outside for a few days, I instinctably knew that their were only three other deities who wore black tunics, and crowned themselves with thorn made diadems which only served to scare all creatures alike, but I found myself less and less afraid and more entransed, again.
We looked at other for a brief time when the tallest of them spoke;
"All hail Poseidon, Son of Cronus and Rhea, Future Ruler of the Sea. I am Atropos and these are my sisters, Clotho and Lachesis."
"We are born from time and space young immortal so you may as well know who we are" exclaimed the smallest of the group,after looking at my confused stare.
I begun to think of my new chance at freedom and if what she said is true then they are more powerful than any of the rest of us, which means that they could chose me to play one of their games and I would be unable to stop it. I won't let that happen.
"What brings you here fate" I finally answered after staring-no, glaring more like it.
"Do not dare talk to us that way, Lord. We came here with peace offerings and to show your majesty a peak at your future and you come and treat us like trash." claimed the middle one who if what my gut tells me is Lachesis.
I was about to speak my mind when I reminded myself who I'm with and what was at stake.
'tread carefully' I thought.
"I am truly sorry for that, please forgive my manners" I murmured pleasently enough, I hoped.
"Enough about Poseidon's lack of manners-may we call you Poseidon, your majesty" making sure they had a positive answer they continued.
"As you may have heard us you will soon become the ruler of the sea so-"
"Impossible, the sea is ruled by no one!" I exclaimed
"SILENCE!"
"You are becoming more of a nuisance than we would have thought so we recommend you to be QUIET"
"Ladies, I give my sincerest apologies for I cannot believe such foolery you are speaking..." I shot at them quiet appalled
"there is no such thin-" I tried to speak but was cut off.
"Again we must plead with you to be silent for it is our duty to warn you of your future, for sooner or later, probbably later, you will be in grave danger." Clotho mentioned, her face looking a bit sheepish.
"what have you done to me!" they surely would give me an answer but one that is reasonable enough.
They, ignoring my demands,started talking about my lovelife or lack of it.
"Alright alright, lets say you were right and I will become the sea ruler, what am I going to do, I might have been born prince but that doesn't mean I am ready to rule something that's always been free."
"Don't say such things, of course you won't completely rule her but you will love her as you do your family, some might even think now we think you are calling to her, forming a bond that will last until the end of ends"
The Sea, I thought to myself, thinking that maybe just maybe I could dream of becoming one with the body of water and live free, forever.
"Actually we were talking about your innermost desire, one that even you do not aknowledge;a partner"
At that particular moment in time I looked like a fish out of water which with the way our conversation is going, it became annoying immediately, so I schooled my features and asked the million drachma question.
" The Sea will present you to her, but just in case, here." Lachesis whispered while giving me a wrinkled piece of paper.
They dissapeared with parting words that I would not learn to understand until it would be too late.
"The Sea is she, and she is the Sea"
