Néo Olympus - Another Ordinary Day

It's just another ordinary day at the port of Piraeus. Cargo ships, their hulls scarred by salt and time, grind against the docks, disgorging shipping containers by the thousand. Inside: bio-microchips from the neon warrens of Shanghai, synthic blood canisters from the floating markets of Tenochtitlán Norte, olive oil laced with illegal cyber enhancers, and the occasional god-forged relic smuggled past customs with a wink and a bribe.

Above the chaos, the Gaze and Melody, a pleasure cruiser dripping with gold leaf Corinthian columns and holographic laurel wreaths, cuts a serene arc through the Aegean. Onboard, magnates from the high-rises mingle with underworld kings, all sipping retsina spiked with synthetic ambrosia. Below deck, deals are struck in body language and ancient whispers.
