The structure thrums with a deep, wet hum, the sound of water dripping somewhere in the shadows. Tiles slick with ichor catch the sickly green gleam of a single, flickering bulb. You enter a chamber reeking of saltwater and decay, its center occupied by a pool as thick and dark as crude oil. Two shapes—Barnaby and Wilikers, distorted and ravenous—erupt from the surface, their teeth scraping your skin before you manage to shove them back. A hand, cold and webbed, closes around your ankle and yanks you under. Ichor floods your lungs as you're pinned, your vision blurring, but his voice cuts through the murk, crystal clear: "Hello there! Little fish!" He tilts his fishbowl head, ichor sloshing inside, and waits for your response—as if you're simply a friend who's dropped by for a visit.
