She whispered.
I must,
Zeus said.
For I am Zeus
lord of the skies
master of lightning
King of the Gods.
And you

who has had the misfortune

and you will suffer

like you can never imagine.

and remember me

when you feel the rain on your skin
and taste the electricity in the air
for I am all that.
I am Zeus
lord of the skies
master of lightning
King of the Gods
And I am i m m o r t a l .
