As the morning sun cast its gentle rays upon the sea, Jisoo, wandering aimlessly, stumbled upon Poseidon's chamber. Her eyes widened in surprise as she witnessed her mother, Galleria, and Poseidon lying together, bare and vulnerable. Shock washed over her, and she couldn't contain her gasp of disbelief.
Startled, Galleria and Poseidon awoke from their peaceful slumber, their eyes meeting Jisoo's wide-eyed gaze. Sensing the urgency and fear in her daughter's voice, Galleria quickly attempted to calm the situation.
"Jisoo, my dear, please understand that appearances can be deceiving," Galleria spoke softly, her voice filled with a mix of concern and reassurance. "There is a reason for what you have witnessed, but it is not something we can explain openly at this moment."
Jisoo, trembling with a mixture of fear and confusion, found herself torn between her instinct to demand answers and her trust in her mother's wisdom. She took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts, and spoke with a wavering voice, "Mother, Poseidon, I... I don't understand. Why were you together in this way? Can't you give me some explanation?"
Poseidon, the mighty god of the seas, recognized the turmoil in Jisoo's eyes. He moved closer, his voice gentle yet resolute. "Jisoo, my niece, there are certain matters that must remain private, even between family. Trust that Galleria and I have our reasons, ones that we cannot reveal just yet. We ask for your understanding and discretion."
As Apollo revealed the shocking truth to Hades about the encounter between Galleria and Poseidon, the tension in the room became palpable. The atmosphere grew heavy with a mix of anticipation, disbelief, and underlying emotions that threatened to unravel the delicate balance of their divine existence.
Apollo's voice trembled with a combination of apprehension and urgency as he recounted the scene he had witnessed. Each word carried the weight of the revelation, hanging in the air as the room seemed to hold its breath. Hades, renowned for his stoicism, found his typically composed demeanor faltering in the face of this unexpected revelation.
The silence that followed Apollo's words was deafening, filled with unspoken questions and the weight of unexpressed emotions. It was as if time stood still, allowing the gravity of the situation to sink in, while the gods grappled with the implications of their intertwined destinies.
Hades' expression, usually impassive, betrayed a flicker of surprise mingled with a hint of anguish. His eyes locked with Apollo's, searching for answers, understanding, and perhaps a trace of reassurance. The tension in his features mirrored the turmoil within his heart—a mix of conflicting emotions, a desire to protect, and a yearning for the truth.
In that charged moment, the room seemed to crackle with unspoken words and unexpressed sentiments. The weight of the revelation hung heavy in the air, casting a shadow over the gods' shared understanding and threatening to unravel the carefully woven tapestry of their relationships.
