[ABYSS SEA] What used to be The Journal of The Crystal Mage

[Moroz_Winters]

April 20th, 1854
Feeling lucky today! John Astra just caught a basking shark and Beach cooked it up real good. The shark was a bit weird though… it had like purple flesh in there? No one wanted to eat it so I did because I am an aspiring captain! Oh and there’s like purple clouds in the sky… the weather certainly looks odd today…

Its been… an hour since I wrote here. Giant fish creatures attacked the town. The place is in chaos. I’m in a house with my crew, planning an escape out of this island. Ruamez is fending off the atlanteans at the door. I keep hearing something, but they say they don’t hear anything.

I don’t know how many hours have passed. Most of my crew and almost all the civilians here have escaped from the island, except for Robinson, Ruamez and their captain. We and the remaining marines are not in good condition. Most marines have been killed… or turned into one of those fish-humans. I’m not feeling so good, neither are the other two. Mayor Tilly An atlantean was able to mimic human speech… and I fell for the bait. One my hands was crushed by it. Robinson’s katana is about to shatter, and Ruamez is getting exhausted. I apparently blacked out twice while I was getting the civilians to evacuate. I’m hallucinating… this isn’t looking so good.

I… don’t know what happened. Did I write this?

I blacked out again. There’s something outside this abandoned ship I’m hiding in. I can hear someone scream for help… I need to get to them. Robinson and Ruamez successfully escaped the island. There’s something outside this There’s something outside this There’s something outside this There’s something outside this why am I writing the same thing again. I need an escape pl

Blacked out again. I feel like there’s something squirming in my arcsphere and my back feels weird. I can feel my broken hand for some reason. Something is co

Johnny Grey, the captain of the Bejeweled Sigils has his arcsphere and spine ripped off by an atlantean. The atlantean feasts on his severed body as it threw the bones into a cave. The spine resembles that of a fish.

The spine of what’s left of Grey plants itself into the solid ground and kept shaking itself. As it kept doing so, it shatters the arcsphere, revealing a grotesque figure with two eyes. The entrance of the cave is sealed off with a thin wall of emerald. The creature does nothing but flail around and it’s roars can sometimes be heard from outside the cave.

Parts of the Johnny Grey atlantean’s bone are scattered around Palo Town. These bones would bloom into crystal flowers. The crystal flowers slowly drain the magic energy of other atlanteans on the island, providing nutrients to this particular atlantean. The flowers are alive, occasionally opening an eye to spy on the outside. These flowers can also grow on other atlanteans, providing this atlantean complete mind control over them(They do not get more powerful). The atlantean has an exception, that being a symbiotic relationship with another particular atlantean Mayor Tilly. In exchange for consuming humans(giving a portion of nutrients to Grey), the atlantean is able to forcefully control the orca to regurgitate the bones in her stomach, coating them in crystal and shooting it at the speed of a bullet. It can even manipulate it to shoot in a direction it wants.

Horrible design:

It is somewhat based off the garden eel

Also how I think the roar sounds like:

Zetton's sounds

[Abyss Sea] Reclaiming Palo Town, Attempt Two

“When are we setting off?” “It has been like what… a three hour delay?” “They’re still setting up the opening for us.” “Alright, alright, I’ll wait.” The sun is high, the clouds are beneath our feet and these sky apples are quite delicious. As the quartermaster of the Frigade Yebolg, Cirrus Island is certainly a fancy place to stay during this apocalyptic wasteland. No meat, sadly. Our crew has been called to go on the second expedition to capture Palo Town. Mainly because they’re worried r…

[Abyss Sea] The Crew Of The Crystal Mage

I was there, at the field of chaos. Rescuing people, defending against the horde that was the atlanteans. All was going smoothly, until they started growing in numbers. They were being infected, one by one. There was no way to cure them, unless you call a bullet to the head a cure. Eventually, we were trying to save ourselves instead of saving others. There I stood, with my blade resting in my sheath, facing down a beast twice my size. A child hid behind me, so I was careful when I placed my ha…

SUCH A COOL DESIGN!! It’s so unique and also morbid, and its relationship with other Atlanteans (esp Tilly) is so interesting! The fact that it hurts other Atlanteans really adds to the disorder of the invasion, making the horde less organized and way more chaotic

Also i really like how this was written! The abrupt cut offs in some paragraphs really display the haphazard nature of the writer’s mind. this is really good :))

edit: also if i heard that roar echoing off the abandoned building of Palo Town at night i would quite literally shit my pants

“Yo Tilly I got a deal for you, you give me flesh, I give you power.”
“Sure.”

Fun fact:
Grey’s hand got shattered by Tilly (bro thought it was a good idea to handshake an atlantean)

Grey’s actually trying to take control over Tilly, but can’t since not enough magic energy. So really it’s more like a “Guess I’ll just collaborate with you”
