Summary
The melodious song of a Siren is the most dangerous yet most beautiful thing the ocean has preserved for centuries.
But that’s not all. Sailors from all corners, crossing the vast ocean, have always sought a male Siren. Yes, a male Siren. It is said that a male Siren’s song is far more perilous than that of a female, their beauty sharper and more dazzling than any Siren the sailors have ever seen.
Gloomy waves cling to the ship’s hull along with barnacles.
The boat drifts silently, not a breeze stirring, cursed by the wrath of the moon goddess due to an arrogant fool.
Illusory dreams of triumphant glory, faith in a battle filled only with blood and violence. Son of Thetis, demigod child of Peleus, dive into the deep sea with me and become silent sea foam, unable to voice your screams.

Patroclus, a male Siren who has existed for decades, is constantly torn by his wild and ferocious nature when faced with sailors or those returning home by ship.
He met Achilles when the boy was only running along the shore with his small feet.
