Greetings, I am Poseidon, god of the sea. I am born of the two titans Chronus Rhae, my mother and father respectively. As the god of the sea I have domain over the ocean and all bodies of water. My siblings, including Zeus and Hades, divided the power over the world with me and rule in their own domains. I also created horses, greatly influencing the ways man traveled. When I am not working at ruling the sea I enjoy being with the ladies. Unfortunately my love of women has gotten me into trouble numerous times. The one woman I do not desire however is Athena. She and I have competed many times throughout history for prizes and privelages. Perhaps our greatest competition was over the city of Athens and who would be its favorite god. I gave them a spring and she gave them the olive tree. AN OLIVE TREE! Who needs an olive tree?! Oh well, who needs the city of Athens any way? Now, I must to go back to ruling the seas. Farewell.
Very interesting. I didn't know you created horses. But what I don't understand is why would you create them if you are the god of the sea?

Overall very well written.
