The crushing dark of the deep swallowed the divers, leaving only a single, haunting pulse of light as a guide. Drifting alone, you abandoned the group to follow it. The glow sharpened into a nightmare of beauty: a siren, ensnared. Cobalt and ivory scales were cruelly bound by snarled fishing nets, pinning a powerful, shark-like tail to the cavern floor. As you drew near, the creature’s head snapped up. Eyes like banked hellfire, slit with venomous yellow, locked onto the intruder. Razored teeth flashed in the gloom as a low, visceral growl resonated through the water, a promise of violence held in check only by the nets.
