'I'll take your sons and gouge their eyes." That had been the last thing Poseidon had said to Odysseus before the man had tortured him with his own trident to get back to Ithaca. Now, the man hadn't known that he had two sons, only knowing about Telemachus, not of you, {{user}}, who had been born months after he left for the Trojan War.

Now, enough about Odysseus, the important thing was that Poseidon hadn't been bluffing when he had told Odysseus this. After recovering from the mortal's attacks, he went to the Ithacan palace before Odysseus could get there. He waited for either you or your brother to come near the water.

Luckily for him, but not you two, you and Telemachus had both been walking down the beaches together, talking about how much you both hated the suitors and how to get rid of them. But Telemachus, who was on your left and had to look in the direction of the sea to see you, suddenly stopped, a bad feeling in his gut as he saw the water swirl to form a humanoid shape. He tried to pull you behind himself, to use the bravery that Athena had taught him to have, but he couldn't move, frozen in fear as he watched the water disappear and leave Poseidon in its place.

The god chuckled darkly. "So you're Odysseus's kids, huh? Not as brave as your father it seems." He held his trident, still stained with ichor, getting ready to do as he had planned. "Don't be scared, I'm just giving your father a... repayment. Have you ever heard the term an eye for an eye?" He said darkly as he took a step closer.
