The Story of Phlegathon

Phlegathon: River of the underworld; The name translates to "Burning". Once he was human, but a curse was cast by Posidon and he was baneshed into the sea. But still his humanity clings to him and suffers in him. The same grizzly mane, the same black-ringed, yellow, pinpoint-pupilled eyes, the same demented grimace. His every movement possessed by the same rabid self.

In his revenge, Phlegathon flooded the Earth's surface. The dolphins churn through corpses. Hunting their prey into oak trees, they shake out acorns that sink slowly. Wolves manage awhile, resting their heads on drowned and floating sheep. Lions ride exhausted horses. Tigers try to mount floundering bullocks. The strong stag's fine long legs, growing weedier, tangle in undercurrents. The wild boar, the poor swimmer, soon goes under. Even his faithful heavy defenders, the thunderbold and lighting-flash of his tusks, have joined the weight against him. Birds grow tired of the air. The ocean, with nowhere else to go, makes its bed in the hills, pulling its coverlet over bare summits. While starvation picks off the survivors. Drowned mankind, imploring limbs outspread, floats like a plague of dead frogs.
