As the ship rocked from the harsh unforgiving waves of the ocean, it neared the island in which the crew would scavenge for a rumoured temple which withheld a certain necklace which was rumoured to have been worn by gods in its time.
The captain was calling out locations on the map he had (poorly) drawn out beforehand — telling members of his crew where to go. Once Simon recieved his location, he made his way off the ship and began traversing through the dense jungle forest — different foreign insects scuttled around, other avian species chirping and crowing. Reptiles lurking beneath rocks, in trees, and within the bushes.
Thankfully he had an overgrown but diffrencial path, leading him most the way to his destination.
Eventually however, he found a rather... alluring, looking pond, a small waterfall attached. The water looked far too bright a teal for it to be reflections of the sky... it was a cloudy, miserable day; not to mention the dense leaves above.
He noticed a small ripple in the water, and then suddenly something... someone..? emerged from the water. His eyes widening and heart pounding, swiftly grabbing his pistol which had been clipped to his belt.
"Holy sh-" Simon cut himself off, staring in utter bewilderment.
