Chapter 30: Land of the Wild

Cronos crawled out of the ocean

Onto the sandy beach,

Breathing heavily as he struggled to

Catch his breath from the fight

With the ocean itself.

He looked at what was before him

On his journey to Mt. Olympus

And what he saw was the wild

Free and vast,

Open and untouched by mankind

Waiting for one such individual to

Step foot and explore the exotic deity.

He got up

The sand falling off his carcass

The body moving like a man strung up

Moving limply by the puppeteer

Completely exhausted from all the action

And without rest.

It has been a long day for this god

As he moves with all his might

In order to reach shelter

To make it under cover

And to be safe from the 

Evils of this world.

He crossed the beach ever so slowly

Finally reaching the forest

That would make one want to run

Or to explore what is held within it

And climbed up a simple tree

To find the sturdy branch

So that he could finally rest in peace.
