A Prayer In the Face of Tragedy

Poseidon Pelagaeus, Lord of the Sea. Poseidon Laoites, Lord of the People. Poseidon Gaieokhos, Holder of the Earth. The foundations have been shaken and the sea brought to turmoil. I make offerings of water and salt in thanks for your blessings, and in thanks for the lessons that the tempestuous seas have taught. I ask that comfort be brought now to those who have felt the shaking of the Earth. May they find the stability to continue with their lives, and may the generosity of their fellow mortals bring them the aid they need.

Hades Polydektes, Receiver of Many Guests. I offer you libations of oil for the comfort of those who have been taken by the Earth. Solemn Host of Many, may you see to their needs in your realm below, and may they find peace.
