@§§§¤††--¨ something lies glowing ¨--††¤§§§@
##§†-¨¨¨¨¨ on the ocean floor... ¨¨¨¨¨-†§##
§¤†††-¨¨¨¨ ¨¨ ¨¨ ¨¨¨¨-†††¤§

§††------¨ ¨------††§
§§†----¨¨¨ on the ocean floor, a dangerous and ¨¨¨----†§§
###§¤††--¨ caustic and sweet sweet thing, it ¨--††¤§###
#@#§¤††--¨ glows, it lures you closer. a creature! ¨--††¤§#@#
§¤††-¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-††¤§
#@#§¤††--¨ it's almost otter-like, but like lava, ¨--††¤§#@#
#@#§¤††--¨ a liquid shaped like a living thing, ¨--††¤§#@#
#@#§¤††--¨ and when it raises an arm, its fingers ¨--††¤§#@#
#@#§¤††--¨ are dripping with fire. with its song, ¨--††¤§#@#
§§†---¨¨¨¨ it lures you closer yet. ¨¨¨¨---†§§
@§§††††--¨ ¨--††††§§@
#@#§¤††--¨ it's in a state of bliss! it's a flame, ¨--††¤§#@#
##@#§¤†--¨ lit by the sun! and this pleasure is to ¨--†¤§#@##
###§¤††--¨ be shared, shared with others. ¨--††¤§###
§†††-¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-†††§
#§¤††-¨¨¨¨ and the creatures of the sea creep ¨¨¨¨-††¤§#
#@#§¤††--¨ closer, hypnotized and curious, and the ¨--††¤§#@#
#@#§¤††--¨ sludge extends a hand, and they take it, ¨--††¤§#@#
###§¤††--¨ ¨--††¤§###
##@§¤††--¨ writhing with joy, accepts them all. ¨--††¤§@##
#@#§¤††--¨ they step inside, taking the shape of a ¨--††¤§#@#
#@#§¤††--¨ squirming otter, now a stretching cat, ¨--††¤§#@#
##§¤††-¨¨¨ now almost humanoid. although suddenly ¨¨¨-††¤§##
#@#§¤††--¨ it all liquifies completely, now just a ¨--††¤§#@#
##@#§¤††-¨ burning puddle, lit not by the sun, but ¨-††¤§#@##
#@#§¤††--¨ by some internal fuel hostile to life. ¨--††¤§#@#
