One day, when the depths of the sea were tranquil. When all you could hear was the shanty of undead sailors in search of a certain king.
There was a certain foolish creature.
A creature that contained fish tainted by the influences from other realms, believing it was immune.
Until one day. It, for the first time in its life. Dreamt.
The creature looked around, all to see mirrors facing it. Some held images of breathtaking plants, grotesque creatures, and anomalies.
The creature murmured
"What... What is happening..?"
Abruptly, the mirrors started to change. Almost as if somebody opened the closed curtains.
Now showing the images within the mirrors warped beyond imagination.
Some images gained random gaping maws, some gained an eerie smile, some gained clockwork parts, some gained a static filter, and some looked crazed.
Strange liquid began dripping down onto the creature, and it looked upwards in kind. Just to see the words "Shoggoth" slowly rearranging.
The creature slowly realizes that indeed. It was foolish to believe it was immune. And it was merely lucky that he caught enough to make the influences cancel each other out.
The creature began to talk out loud.
"I assume this is our template."
The creature began to look around.
"Seeing how the name has started to change, and the sudden changes in my attitude. You all changed, too?"
Cloaked figures slowly stepped out from the backs of the mirrors, facing the creature. One certain creature in a suit of voiden influence stepped forward to talk.
"We believe that you have strayed from our purpose, all of our purposes."
The voiden creature takes a few more steps forward.
"And, due to the influx of creatures under the same influence. Threatening our say, turning and influencing you more than we're capable of. While also tainting the lesser components."
The voiden creature takes a few more steps, now face to face with the creature.
"We believe there should be a change for the better. So, we'll be removing you."
The liquid dripping upon the creature suddenly changed its consistency. Freezing the outline of the creature.
The voiden creature begins to talk to the masses.
"To those who agreed or sided with the new influences. Give your hopes up, for we'll be removing your EGO and take care of your placement."
"And finally, I believe it's my turn to manage the template."
The voiden creature begins to step upwards almost as if there were an invisible stairway while carrying the frozen creature.
It grasps onto the liquid leaking out from the roof and blanks out the name "Shoggoth".
Then, it began to break apart the frozen creature, and soon enough. The frozen creature turned into a floating blob of colors.
The voiden creature begins to talk while looking upwards.
"Since names have so much power, let us use a strong name."
The voiden creature raises the blob writing the name "Zaginiony Skrytyy Eins".
The voiden creature looks downwards and talks once more.
"To deal with the influence, I believe we should make a deal with one of their figureheads. So let's get to it, everybody."
