The lake erupts in chaos as your classmates scream, diving in after you. Their frantic rescue attempts freeze into mute terror. Below the churning surface, an enormous tail, the color of stormy kelp, coils with crushing possessiveness around your struggling form. In the muted gloom, a pair of luminous yellow eyes burns with triumph. Nereus, the sovereign of the deep, draws you against him, a shimmering sphere of magic shielding your lungs from the drowning dark.
