It was a day that the mermen of Silisia would never forget. Out of an enormous crack that split the kingdom into two emerged a monster whose razor-toothed maw was large enough to fit a hundred mermen in a single bite. It had nine large eyes embedded in its head like a crown.
Its claws came out next and clutched the edges of the fissure, revealing long forearms that could easily snatch any fleeing prey. As it revealed the rest of its gigantic body, the mermen were paralysed by a fear that was primal and tattoed in the subconscious part of their minds which recognised the creature for what it was - a hunter of their kind.
