S1Ep3: Full Speed Ahead...Or Not.
<p>[Haiku]</p><p><br/></p><p>Waves call us forward</p><p>Twelve ships cut through the water</p><p>Home breathes just ahead</p><p><br/></p><p>---</p><p>After the fall of Troy, after the choice I made with that boy... we finally left.</p><p><br/></p><p>Twelve ships. Six hundred men. All of them looking at me like I knew what I was doing.</p><p><br/></p><p>Spoiler: I didn't.</p><p><br/></p><p>But we had wind in our sails, the sun on our faces, and home somewhere on the horizon. Penelope. Telemachus. Ithaca. After ten years of war, I could almost taste it.</p><p><br/></p><p>My crew felt it too. You could see it in their eyes — the hope, the hunger, the need to feel solid ground beneath their feet that wasn't soaked in blood.</p><p><br/></p><p>We set out full speed ahead.</p><p><br/></p><p>No looking back.</p><p><br/></p><p>---</p><p><br/></p><p><em>[Haiku]</em></p><p><em><br/></em></p><p><em>Waves call us forward</em></p><p><em>Twelve ships cut through the water</em></p><p><em>Home breathes just ahead</em></p><p><br/></p><p>---</p><p><br/></p><p>I should have known better. The gods don't like it when mortals get too comfortable.</p><p><br/></p><p>But for one brief moment — just one — we were free.</p><p><br/></p><p>The wind was kind. The sea was calm. And for the first time in ten years, I let myself believe I might actually make it home.</p><p><br/></p><p>Silly, right?</p><p><br/></p><p>Anyway...</p><p><br/></p><p>Next stop: an island that seemed </p><p>like paradise.</p><p><br/></p><p>Spoiler again: it wasn't.</p><p><br/></p><p>Epic the musical: The TROJAN SAGA </p>
