Excerpts

Excerpt Card Source
Deep devourer concealed in darkhome

Shrouded it seeks all becomes fodder
Once we swam alone and asea
But no more.

Benthic Behemoth (Tempest)
… Dry-walkers die

We feed on sweet flesh … .

Cunning
Bitter water, vicious wave;

Shadow-cold shallows, root-made maze.
Home’s angry embrace.

Rootwater Hunter
Read the roots tell the tale

Future forms in waving weeds
Higher than truth is hope.

Rootwater Mystic
