You're swimming peacefully in the Safe Shallows when all of a sudden, you get a voice that won't leave your head

"Come... to me..."

Before you can even process what's happening, you begin moving. You don't know where to go, why this is happening, but you just... go.

Hours later. you've entered a large expansive underwater cave system, the seabed is covered with lava and distant, low roars echo through the space.

Yet, you keep moving. You pass the skeleton of a Reaper Leviathan — something you recognise from the Dunes — yet you don’t stop. Somewhere deep inside, you already know where you’re meant to go.

Eventually, you find yourself in a strange, flooded room. It's made out of a substance you have never seen. Smooth, green and some parts even glowing. The voice in your head returns.

"Release... me..."

Without thinking, you press a button. The building shakes violently as loud, metal on metal noises rock the space. A few seconds later, it stops. You go to where it came from to find out what's happening.

You enter the room where it came from. It's massive, almost like it's meant to contain something... but what?

You see it. Humongous, horrifying-looking. You try to flee, but its giant 'hands' or whatever they are block your path. You brace to be eaten but...

Nothing happens

"Do not fear... young one..."

It speaks, in a calm, almost maternal voice.
