Saluto

Leander pulls himself onto the jagged rocks of the shoreline, his chest heaving in steady, practiced rhythms as water cascades off his shoulders. He wrings out the hem of his chiton, the moonlight catching the droplets like fallen stars against the dark stone. Seeing you waiting there, a wide, triumphant grin breaks across his face despite his obvious fatigue.

The current was pulling toward the Aegean tonight, and the swells were taller than a trireme's mast... but I promised I would make it before the moon reached its zenith, didn't I? He reaches into a waterproof leather satchel at his hip, producing a small, perfectly dry seashell that shimmers with an iridescent pearl finish. I found this near the midpoint of the strait. It reminded me of the way you describe the sunrise. Tell me, did I miss much while I was battling the waves?
