He stared into the abyss, and the abyss stared back.

Choosing to face your demons, after all how bad could it be, this is your world right? And you have godlike powers right? So whatever It is it can't be anything too bad. None if this reassures you however as you suddenly hear a growl from the darkness as the shadow seemed to slither a crossed the top of the water out in the fog. Okay so whatever it is.. not human. But surely you can still protect yourself whatever it may be right?

The shadow starts to circle you, and it is quite large, the creature seemingly as large as as football field is toying with you, hissing like as snake out in the darkness as it's massive girth encircles you. Swimming closer and closer and occasionally bumping the poor small dingy with its horned spine. It's dark wet eyes seem to follow you with every pass, the eyes themselves positioned along the hide and not only the head of the leviathan.

Riddled with fear you wish for a way out of this and cling to your pathetic little dingy. The creature only seems to growl at your fear and toys with you more. Before a loud cry is heard from the mist, "There she is captain! Starboard bow!" And an accompanying cry of "Ready the guns, Skor!" And And a loud boom is heard over your head as the water is pummeled with cannonballs all around you, the creature shrieks and retreats and from the mists emerges a stalwart ship of bulky proportions with a gilded maiden on its bow, half of her was a hideous mermaid and and the other half a beautiful woman.

Upon the railing was etched the 'HMS Galahad'. It was a towering vessel with metallic spines coming off its edges and striking the water with sharp razor sharp edges, the ship itself was three masted with three different decks as well, it was a heavy four decker higher than. Your tiny dingy, but none the less it artfully swooped In beside you as if it were a swan upon the water. Voices could be heard from above "We got a live one captain, what are your orders?" "Maybe he'll make a good stew? "Can we eat him?" To which a stalwart female voice calls "Can it skwab, bring him up Mr Aaron." Whom another voice answers, you assume It to be Aaron.

"Awe the formality captain, I am flattered." Suddenly your ship is grappled by strong tethers, and lofted out if the Sea, the crewmen above cruelly dump the entire ship, yourself included over over the railing and into the galahad, from which you tumble into the sturdy boots of one of them.

Grumbling to yourself a bit you look up at your saviors first seeing the laces of this man's boots, and allowing your eyes to travel higher up the ballooning trousers, to find a firmly enclosed double breasted jacket and a beautiful faced girl wearing wearing a rather large and silly hat, but what breasts she had, obviously tightly restrained within her jacket they hardly shifted despite their glorious size as she turned on her boots and stepped back from you. A gaggle of seamen seemed to rush forward and bind you in ropes, restraining you with arms behind your back. The captain looks to another crewman who is quite ugly, covered In blisters and warts, his teeth rotting and his hair greasy, but he looked to be a strong man used to the harshness of the sea.

She speaks, her voice just as clear and commanding as before, "Mr Aaron, put this mongrel in the brig I may have use for him later." To which Aaron, her first mate assumably replies "Aye aye, Captain, you heard her let's get your boots to the brig." At this point you are shocked you survived that monster and don't mind being led down into into the into the confines of the ship, deeper into the musty bulk you are finally cast into a bilge water sodden brig complete with cast iron bars to which you are ungratefully locked behind.

Mr Aaron leaves with a cackle and returns to the surface of the ship. You are therefore left in the dirty bowels of the ship alone and contemplating your situation, thankfully you were saved from that monster. But now you are captured by these pirates who you do not know what their intentions towards you may be. You could easily use your powers and escape, or you could wait for them to come to you, trusting in in your powers again to get you out of this mess. But again your mind wanders, what was that horror of the depths? And why does it scare you so? Can't you just wish it away? You tried but seem unable to banish it even from your thoughts. It seems this world has more to it than you expected.
