"Some god may send out against me, from the brine, one of the swarming strange huge creatures in the breeding grounds of Amphitrite." Amphitrite; sea nymph and goddess of the sea, wife of Poseidon Amphitrite was the goddess queen of the sea, the wife of King Poseidon. Some say she was one of the fifty Nereides, others an Okeanis, but most simply describe her as the female personification of the sea: the loud-moaning mother of fish, seals and dolphins. As such she was essentially the same as Thalassa. When Poseidon first sought Amphitrite's hand in marriage, she fled his advances, and hid herself away near Atlas in the Ocean stream at the far ends of the earth. The dolphin-god Delphin eventually tracked her down and persuaded her to return to wed the sea-king.Amphitrite was depicted in Greek vase painting as a young woman, often raising her hand in a pinching gesture. Sometimes she was shown holding a fish. In mosaic art the goddess usually rides beside her husband in a chariot drawn by fish-tailed horses or hippokampoi. Sometimes her hair is enclosed with a net and her brow adorned with a pair of crab-claw "horns".Her name is probably derived from the Greek words amphis and tris, "the surrounding third." Her son Tritôn was similarly named "of the third." Clearly "the third" is the sea, although the reason for the term is obscure. Her Roman equivalent was Salacia, whose name means "the salty one."
Her symbol is a beautiful pearl

She quickly remembered it was her mother who it was a symbol to, not them, and she just as quickly forgot about the cabin,"Now, tell me." She demanded and pulled Carolynne over to her bed and sat her down, she hovered above her.:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:

~Carolynne Tarns~"You are who you are. No one else. You can't change that. What happens happens for a reason and you can't stop it. So stop holding onto the past. And live in the future. You are a demigod. You can't stop that, so live like a Demigod. And quit trying to be normal, because you aren't." "Well. I went home and I got a few things straightened out and I 'talked' to my mom and um. Well." Carolynne paused and looked up at Atreyet. "And I kind-of-sort-of-may-have done something I said I would never do again." Carolynne looked down at the long sleeves of her shirt than looked at her feet. ~Daughter of Apollo~Laugh a little to much. Smile when you really shouldn't. Be happy when everything is falling apart. Fight the best you can even when you have nothing to lose. And just live. And if all these become hard to do, remember I'll stand beside you.

:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎: ◤Atreyet◢ sighed and stared at Carolynne's sleeves,"You didn't do that again, did you?" she asked Carolynne, a bit mad. She remember talking to Carolynne on several occasions about her cutting habits, and Carolynne told her that they were in the past. Now, she had doubts.:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:

Deep gashes were on her arm hiding the old scars and her wristbands still hiding the scars from when she had the suicide attempt when she was thirteen. Each cut looked newly made, but were old enough to have closed up. ~Daughter of Apollo~Laugh a little to much. Smile when you really shouldn't. Be happy when everything is falling apart. Fight the best you can even when you have nothing to lose. And just live. And if all these become hard to do, remember I'll stand beside you.

:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎: ◤Atreyet◢ lightly smacked Carolynne on the head,"You ninny! What got you so upset that could cause you do do that to your self!?" she asked, kind of yelling at Carolynne. She looked at the terror on Carolynne's face and she realized that she wasn't reacting to well to this situation. She shut her eyes for a little bit, taking a deep breathe in, then re opening her eyes,"I'm sorry for yelling, now, can you please kindly explain why you did this.":≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:≎≎:

She buried her face back in her hands. ~Daughter of Apollo~Laugh a little to much. Smile when you really shouldn't. Be happy when everything is falling apart.

"What were they?" Atreyet asked concerned. She was worried about Carolynne, really worried.
((Be right back, shower!))

You are a demigod. You can't stop that, so live like a Demigod. And quit trying to be normal, because you aren't."Carolynne stayed still for a few minutes. "She told me why my step-dad left and she...she told me why-" Carolynne couldn't speak for a while then she looked up at Atreyet with tears in her eyes. "She told me how Trey really died. And it was my fault." There were other less important things that led her on but those two things pushed her over the edge when she found out. ~Daughter of Apollo~Laugh a little to much. Smile when you really shouldn't. Be happy when everything is falling apart. Fight the best you can even when you have nothing to lose. And just live.

"Who?" she asked, trying to be as caring as she could. She didn't know who she was talking about, and to help, she needed to know who this boy was.

Atreyet stood there, shocked for a moment. She never knew that about Carolynne, and she was surprised it happened. After a minute, Atreyet sat down next to Carolynne, hugging her close,"I doubt it's your fault, it couldn't be.." she said, reassuring her crying friend.
