His father had murdered the creature who had dared to attack his son, and he’d paid with his life as they had all started shooting at his father. The achromos were monsters.

You will take her from her safe home. You will make her trust you. And in doing so, you will learn the secrets of the achromos.” “I do not wish to return to her. I wish to serve our people.” “And so you will. With every secret you unveil from her pale soul, you will save us. Arges, you are the first to find one unafraid of our kind.

With her at our side, we will finally destroy them all.”

Never completely.” And something black flashed through Daios, something down right evil. “I will get us answers if you cannot.” And then his brother took off into the depths.

He noticed the tattoos of his pod winding down her arm and across her chest. She wore a top woven out of kelp, just like his mother used to make. And her belly was so round she could barely hold on to him. She tilted her head back with laughter, eventually allowing herself to flatten out in the water and gripped him with only her legs as the image of himself reached for her belly.
