A Week in Korinth: A Lady of the Sea short story Natalie Bartley

My name is Amphitrite, Goddess of the Sea, consort to Poseidon, the King and God of the Sea. Many centuries ago, he abandoned Atlantis, our home, our children, his responsibilities, and me. It has been a little over 500 years and I can't rule this kingdom alone. So I'm going to find him. I need to find him; I don't know what I'll do if I don't. I'm stretched too thin as it is. Triton has gratefully stepped up to fill his father's shoes, but without Poseidon here to officially pass on the Trident of Atlantis to him, he is simply a prince floundering under the weight of a title he isn't fully prepared for. Here is my first attempt to locate my wayward consort, and the companionship I found along the way.
