Deep in the depths
Far below
Lurks an insanity
That will grip your soul
The souls of the drowned dead
Speak of suffering
Whispers come to the ears
Of those who sail the waters
Sometimes coercing them in
Or gripping them as they dive for treasure
A diver once dove into The Ocean Of Souls
Never coming out again
On the comms all that was heard was laughter
The man speaking happily
Of a love long lost
The family he once had
Their voices echoed deep from within the depths
Though it couldn’t possibly have been them
The diver took off his gear
Then the comm feed went dead
Never was the diver heard from
Or seen
…Again…
A sea captain once swore
He heard the call of his dead kid
Even swearing he’d seen angels dancing
On the black waters of the ocean
No way he said…
That isn’t right
I’ll not be falling for the tricks of this place
No doubt those angels I see
Are devils in wait
I’ve heard too many things
I’ve seen so much myself
I didn’t survive this long
Just to be tricked into death
No sir, not me
You can’t trust this ocean
A week later he went out
Late at night there was a great scream
Something completely inhuman!
The skies turned red
The very human screams of torment
Echoed like thunder
Right behind this!
The captain
As well as
His ship
Were never heard from again
Many believe whatever happened on the waters that night
Is likely the reason for his disappearance
The Ocean Of Souls is home
To an infinite number of mysteries & legends
In fact
It is said
Something lurks deep within
Supposedly the size of 15 oceans!
That is a tale for another time
I must go
Should I return from my next venture out
I’ll have more tales to tell ya!
Cpt. Ryker never lies!
I’ve been around a time or two
Till next time
Be careful out on those waters
May your God be with you!
