I died in an accident and met a so-called ROB who turned out to be Poseidon. He sent me to Earth in 1961 with nerfed water powers and erased my memories until I turned 18. Growing up as Noah Hunter, with no clue about my first life, I only knew that the water felt like home. By 1979, I was a rising swimming legend, Olympic dreams within reach, and a Harvard scholarship in my pocket. But money was tight, so I took a modeling job, just a small one. That’s when a casting director spotted me for a movie. A movie I remember watching in my first life, which was infamous for...stuff. Bad stuff. Unfortunately, real life is a bitch, and I didn't have the luxury to say no when the pay was that good. At the time, I had no idea I would actually start liking this film stuff.
