Another addition to the cursed mask family, we have Shaelien a shark that met an unfortunate fate.


Shaelien was a treasure hunter that dove deep in the reefs of the ocean in search of loot. She had with her a good crew, each member a friend who all shared many great and even some bad moments. But no matter what they moved forward together and did their best. Shaelien was one of the main divers of the group, all on account she actually had gills. They tied a rope to her before diving so they could pull her up faster in case of emergencies.

One day while Shaelien scowered the ocean floor she came upon a strange ruin, one of a civilization she had not seen before. This intrigued her as new ancient civilizations tended to have interesting treasures. Even if they weren't shiny they could be sold for large sums of money to museums or collectors. She looked about in hopes of finding something, yet no matter her search nothing of worth or even potential worth could be found. It puzzled her somewhat, maybe it was already found before. Then again, she liked history and was fond of ancient cities past, but the one here was completely new. If someone had found it before her it would at least be known to someone. As she started to swim back to the boat, there was a low rumbling sound that carried across the water.

With a bit more concern and some panic Shaelien tugged on the rope to signal for her to be pulled up. Her friends got it and started to reel her up, but then it appeared, a massive horrific looking sea creature rose up from the ruined city. It had massive rows of jagged teeth and a stare that could make veterans cry. Shaelien screamed as she frantically tried to swim towards the boat to go even slightly faster with the help of the rope. But then her speed drastically dropped, why did it slow down she thought to herself. Her answer was silently given as she saw the other end of the rope sinking past her, the line severed by a knife. Many feelings and emotions washed over her as she saw her hope sinking to the oceans floor and her salvation starting to sail away. She felt sadness, pain, anger, fear and most importantly, betrayal as the jaws of the beast slowly closing its mouth around her with a sickening bellow.

A good few years have passed from that one unfortunate time, Shaeliens crew and friends split up after that day. They no longer wanted to go near let alone sail on water again. The ocean had many horrors they wished not to see or go to, unfortunately for them and many more the horrors were coming for them instead.

The faint sounds of a cog clicking about could be heard as something was reeled in from afar. Shaelien was back, the device and rope that was supposed to save her now attached to her arm. It was being used as the opposite of a lifeline for others, reeling them into their fate.
