Hi! So we're Lily White and Ivy Black. This story is something we've been working on, so we hope you like it!

Lily took deep breaths on the deck of the Scandal as the ship left Greece. The coastline drew nearer and nearer farther and farther away. All of a sudden a huge shadow fell over her and she backed up. A huge sea monster reared in front of the ship.

"Oh, no," she whispered "Not him again!"

It was the Lotan, a fierce, hungry, seven headed sea serpent. She pulled on her headband, ( a white one that sparkled like snow) and her sword, χιόνι λεπίδα , ( zu nee lue blee tha), aka Snow Blade, came out. Lily ran to the prow of the ship, holding her sword aloft. As she muttered something no one could hear, a cold wind settled over the monster, turning it to ice as it sank below the waves, a confused look on its face, which shattered soon enough, thanks to a thrust, compliments of Lily White. Almost immediately, a cloud of metal birds swooped down.

"Stymphalion birds?" she noted, "Someone wants to kill me." She disappeared under the birds for a few minutes, until they fell down around her, their wiring frozen. As she looked around her, she could barely see the rest of the ship through the thick fog. Suddenly dizzy, she realized she had no idea where they were headed. The ship had swung around and the compasses had stopped working. A mysterious glowing arrow appeared in the fog, along with a list of instructions, which she followed out of curiosity.
