Zarathustra meets a soothsayer who tells him that there is nothing new under the sun. Everything repeats itself, over and over again endlessly. And the soothsayer asks this odd question: "Where is there a sea in which one could still drown?"

Note to readers: This chapter is written confusingly. Usually most of the dialogue in these chapters is Zarathustra making a speech, but 2.19 opens with the soothsayer speaking. I missed that. I read it as Zarathustra at first. I only figured out it was not him later. This makes the rest of it make a little more sense once you see that. It's easy to miss the way it's structured. 

Then in 2.20 Zarathustra goes off on how the Will to Power can be an act of creation. The will is a creator. It can be a lame creator or a bad creator, but it's still a creator. 

This seems like a callback to the prior chapter in which the soothsayer says there's never anything new. There can be something new, if there's a will. Perhaps this is what Zarathustra means by saying he will show the soothsayer a sea he can drown in.
