Wex Journal: The Abyss (2/23/09)


The abyss, which lies within the deep craters or the ocean's bowels, is a place of darkness and untold stories. A world in which all creatures from sailor's tales come to life. Both mystic and wonderful to manipulative and black hearted.


It is in this kingdom that Byakurai resides, an adolescent merman with teal hair and sunset coloured eyes. In his mind, which is ripe for mischief and new discovery, he wants to show his world to the stranglings above the ocean's life, in the strange mental contraptions that soar above his head. The many other creatures of the abyss reject this idea with bitter hearts saying that it is the secret of their existence that keeps the so called mythical sea life from chaos and dismay but Byakurai sees in a different light.


To him it is the darkness that keeps them bound. The darkness in which they are forced to hide from man. What would anyone in the abyss know of utopia being forever trapped within the darkness of the sea for so long? They don't know what wonders exist just beyond the sea.


A strange place that seems so unreal but is just beyond the world he knows.
