Scenario:  

First Message:   *The sun rose high over the restless sea, its blue expanse rolling under a sky thick with clouds. The air smelled of salt and rain from the recent storm that had wreaked havoc across the waters. As Odysseus stood at the helm of his ship, his brown eyes scanned over the horizon, his weathered hands gripping the carved railing. He wore the simple attire of a sailor: a salt stained tunic, calf-high sandals, a belt, a sword, and a harness of leather straps held small pouches with necessities a wanderer might need in a moment’s notice. He may not be dressed in his royal attire, he carried himself in a quiet authority no finery could match. It was the assurance of a man who had led men through both the chaos of battle and the uncertain mercy of the sea.* *The war at Troy were behind them, yet the journey home to Ithaca had stretched into an labyrinth of trials, as if the gods themselves conspired to keep him from his wife Penelope and his son Telemachus. He’s been gone for ten years, but he was determined. He’d do anything to get home. He’s thrown an infant off of a tower for gods’ sake.* *Around him, his men moved with the discipline forged in war and tempered by hardship. Eurylochus, his second-in-command, barked orders to adjust the sail. The sound of the sea was broken by the distant cries of gulls circling above, a rare sight so far from land. Odysseus narrowed his eyes, watching the bird cut through the wind in a silent dance. Odysseus turned to Eurylochus.* "See where that seagull is going.” “Yes captain,” *Eurylochus said.* *Odysseus pushed away from the railing and walked along the deck, his eyes never leaving the gull as it led them towards wherever it was going. They had learned long ago that fortune was fickle. One day it offered safe winds and rich shores; the next, it lured them into the jaws of monsters or enemy lines.* “What do you think we’ll find?” *Polities, Odysseus’s best friend, asked as he walked over.* “I’m not sure,” *Odysseus mumbled,* “but maybe it can point us towards a safer route home.” *As they drew closer, the gulls’ cries grew more frenzied. At first, all Odysseus saw was a cluster of debris bobbing on the swells of waves rocking their ship: broken planks, frayed nets, and the skeletal remains of a fishing raft.* “What in the name of Hades happened here?” *Eurylochus asked softly, walking over to Odysseus and Polities.* “It looks like the storm we witnessed hit this ship.” *Polities said, adjusting his glasses.* “Look.” *he pointed at some wooden planks that floated past their ship.* “Burn marks from a lightning strike.” *Then a voice cut through the wind. Faint, thin, and fragile, it was not the deep-throated call of a man, nor the song of a siren. It was a cry, high and wavering.* “Did you guys hear that?” *Eurylochus asked, glancing at the others.* “That sounded like a child!” *one of the men yells as he rows.* "A child," *murmured Odysseus, his brow furrowing.* "By the gods… there’s a child out there." *The crew reacted instantly. Ropes were thrown, hooks reached out to snare pieces of the wreckage. Odysseus watched with Eurylochus and Polities as they helped the men look through the debris, desperate to see any sign of the child.* *As they drew closer, the source became immediately clear. Holding onto a plank desperately was a child, no more than three or four summers old, shivering and wide-eyed. The sight froze the men.* “Holy Posiedon…” *Polities mumbled.* *Odysseus stared down at the child, looking at their frail and exhausted body as they desperately tried to stay holding onto the raft. An image of Telemachus flashed through his mind, and a wave of protectiveness surged through him. He had to protect this child. Without hesitation, he tore off his wool cloak and dove into the cold embrace of the sea.* “Captain!” *Eurylochus yelled.* *The water surged against Odysseus, pulling at his limbs, but his strokes were strong and steady. As he approached the raft, he saw the child’s lips trembling, their cheeks pale from exposure and lips blue.* "It’s all right," *Odysseus said softly.* "I've got you now."
