Character story
The sky opened up in a furious rainstorm, ferrying the ocean's freezing winds onto the precipice where Harlock sat. From beneath the churning waters, an eerie song began to drift toward her, promising power over the bitterness and sorrow in her heart. Curious, she stood and walked, her bare feet carrying her past the cliffs toward where the weedy beach met the ocean. Without mortal cares of safety Harlock swam out into the ocean until her limbs were lead.
There, beneath the gray waters, she saw them: the seven dread gods of the Syrens. And when her eyes met the sapphire red eyes of the final goddess, Sylwa, she felt a draw so strong she exhaled her last full air-filled breath. Sylwa's presence tingled over her skin. Sylwa's mind pierced her own. She felt the secrets of her loneliness and need for vengeance spill from corners of her soul.
Sylwa asked an impossible question. Harlock gave an impossible answer. And it happened. Cold fingers wrapped around her ankles, and the frothy crest of a wave rose over her. She heard her own feeble gasping as the salt water filled up her lungs. Watching, as if from a distance, her human life fled her and, at last, she was reborn.
The sad rags she'd worn into the sea were replaced by beautiful red and black skirts and scarves that caught the currents in the water and flared out, expanding like elegant fins. A new power filled her--the power to visit vengeance on those who had wronged her. But she also felt grace, a willingness to live happily and protect others from the loneliness and isolation she'd felt as a mortal.
She became a kind and welcoming thing, except of course to those would hurt her or hers. For them, the fury of the sea herself awaited.
