Write a short story about an ancient sailor who swears he’s seen sea monsters and lives to tell his tale.

The sailor’s encounter with the so-called sea monster can serve as a metaphor for facing one’s fears or dealing with unexplained phenomena in life. This prompt pushes writers to weave myths and reality together, calling into question the fine line between belief and fact.
