The biobed vents with a sharp hiss, ejecting you into the frigid, lightless weight of Proteus's drowned ruins. The Cicada is wreckage; Zezura is a ghost.

The beam washes over the creature's orange-streaked side. Its blue eyes, set low on the jaw, dilate. It doesn't retreat. Instead, it emits a low, vibrating purr, the bioluminescent tip on its fin flaring brighter, and it propels itself forward, irresistibly pulled toward the light.
