Description
A lone Merman, dauntlessly wielding a weapon forged by the remains of some of the most dangerous creatures of the deep, finds himself ambushed after inadvertently intruding upon the courting ritual of a mating pair of mysterious deep sea Serpents. With his spear-like tool clasped firmly in hands, the merman exudes eery confidence and an intimidating disposition reinforced by the successes that his battle-filled life has brought him in the past... Similarly unfazed, the encircling serpents disperse chunks of semi-digested meat from their last victim as a warning gesture to the seemingly stubborn intruder to leave, or meet a grim fate.
