The cave - Aoi & Blobby Adventures

Prompt #5 - The Deep Black

Far below the layers where the merpeople of the Borealis Enclave swim, deeper than even the Epiales dive, the water flows darker than black. The water is thick down that far, oppressive. Some claim it’s not even water, it’s something more sinister. Many who dive into the Deep Black never return. It's said that predators of the Epiales live in the depths, and the remains of their bones and carcasses occasionally float to the upper levels of the ocean. There's never enough left to identify what it was. Special gear is required to traverse the depths, and you'll want to check and double check to make sure that it's in good shape. Draw or write about your character exploring the depths of the sea, and what the depths of the sea does to them in return.
