There's something... otherworldly down there. It happened last night. I had lost track of time and didn't make it back to port before nightfall. But as I was slowly sailing through the foggy darkness, the portside of my vessel lit up with an eerie blue glow. At first I thought it may have been from another ship. But I quickly realized that it wasn't. It came from below the water. Deep below.
It was as if someone had sunk the lighthouse beacon to the bottom of the ocean. In my three decades of fishin on these waters, I an't ever seen anything like it before.
But then... Somethin passed over the light.
I saw... I don't know what I saw. Its shadows mostly. But whatever it was, it was massive. Easily bigger than an ocean liner. Way bigger than my dinky little fishing trawler. I think I may 'ave had the sense chased out of me, cause I just stood there staring at it like a fool. But then I felt dread wash over me. This... creature... It knew I was there. I don't know how I knew, but I did. Just some horrible feeling in my guts that it was watching me.
I ended up gunning the engine. Sailed flank speed all the way back to port. Didn't care about the stress it put on that old engine or any of the rocks I could 'ave hit. Is a miracle that I didn't.
Never believed in stories about sea monsters before. But now? Well... I know that there's something down there. And I ain't in any hurry to go meet it again.
subdivisions!
