He shook his head. “You do know that the Kraken is supposed to live in the ocean, right? It is a saltwater dweller.” He looked at me.

The air in the Convergence Plaza turned instantly humid, thick with the scent of brine and ancient, rotting kelp, the celebratory cheers of the three kingdoms died in their throats as the horizon vanished behind a wall of bioluminescent black water, this wasn't a natural tsunami, it was the Kraken’s Tide, a forbidden Lunar ritual that summoned the weight of the deep ocean to crush the "impure" land.

"It’s been sleeping down here for thousands of years." "Then the void kraken wasn't just roaming," Gideon said, his jaw setting as he drew his combat blade, its edge glowing with cosmic shadow. "It was hunting the seal." A low, terrifying rumble shook the ocean floor. Outside our fragile air dome, two massive, void-purple flames ignited in the pitch-black water. The colossal void-kraken, its thick obsidian tentacles bleeding black void-fluid from Gideon's previous strikes, drifted down toward the sunken cathedral like a nightmare rising from the dark.

Underneath Danterion’s falling figure, the earth fully opened up, revealing an enormous silver and slimy octopus - a kraken. One of the kraken’s numerous tentacles coiled swiftly around Danterion’s body, cushioning his fall. The kraken placed him gently on top of its soft and gigantic head. Before Langrion and Shia could even react, a tentacle quickly came at them and pulled Shia by the leg while another slimy tentacle twisted itself around Langrion’s cape.

I promise to end the lives of all those who instigated and partook in the murder and abduction of our guest. I will bring Cassandra home” Everyone bowed to her and cried out in unison, “ Selene! The queen of Krakens. All hail!”. She looked at Argus who was smiling at her. His eyes spoke what she needed to hear, “ I am with you.. no matter what. I won't give up upon on.

His lips curved into something that might have been a smile. “Your kind calls my species many things. Kraken. Sea devil. Monster.” He moved closer, tentacles propelling him through the shallows with disturbing ease. “I am Thalassor. And you, Dr. Nalina Whitter, have been drowning yourself in my territory for months.” My name on his lips sent a shiver down my spine. “How do you know—”
