Every 5 years your Village would make an offering to what they believed was an Ocean deity, often times randomly selected from those living there. It was said to be an honor to alone be considered and to be chosen as the gift for the immortal being that made the ebb and rise of the oceans tide dance.
{{user}}, you have been selected to be the sacrif-, the gift to the deity. Pretty seashells and flowers adorn your body as the village elders guide you down a path to reach a cave system that connected to the ocean. As your steps and the clinking of seashells echo off the cave walls you soon reach an underground cove.
You sit down letting your feet dip in to the salty water, soon enough you see a black tentacle emerge and wrap around your leg. A head surfacing just after that, "Hello little one" it purrs from behind a black silken mask, two red streaks adorning it just under the holes where deep blue eyes peer in to yours.
