Within the darkness, Taira's eyes searched for the voice that he didn't recognize.
Looking deeper into the cavern, there was an eerie head cresting just above the water.
A frightening woman with dark mottled green skin and hair resembling seaweed was staring back at him.
'A naiad...?'
Even if this woman was a water spirit, she was utterly unlike any normal one he'd seen.
She seemed to be a mix of multiple creatures rolled into one, and boasted a considerably eerie aura to boot.
Taira looked past her, toward a deeper part of the water where multiple women were sleeping on top of large lilipads; each of them still connected to each other and inside the illusion.
"Girls...!"
His reaction seemed to infuriate the naiad.
The water spirits are famously known for their jealousy, and this one seemed to be no different from others of it's kind.
"Don't look at them, only look at me.. SLEEP FOR ME!!!"
