Some of these alleged creatures have origins spanning to that of antiquity, with their presence believed to have been recorded in myth and legend, while others are thought to have taken new evolutionary paths and evolved from previously existing creatures into new variations. Cryptozoology is the study of cryptids.

- Cherry Ka's Trunk Tentacles! Perfume Oil - The black powder crack of a wooden hull splintering, the galvanic crash of a mast broken in twain and smashing into the churning ocean. The icy chill of the sundown waters, the sky bleeding orange and the water frothing red. Bladderwrack wrapping around your leg, so far out at sea, pulling down, striving higher, gripping your thighs.
