The statue had a peculiar design, with a seashell patterned headband similar to that worn by a Shaman. Its face was not human, bearing features of marine life, most distinctively the lower half covered by tentacle-like long whiskers.
The statue's figure somewhat resembled a human, with unusually long arms. Its hands hung low in front, with fingers disproportionate compared to a human's, and were webbed.
The lower body was crudely carved with patterns of waves formed by curling tentacles, without a defined shape.
This thing inexplicably reminded Lance of the old ancestor's dealings with the Deep Diver, the sacrificial event on the full moon night, could it be...
Without doubt, the whale was the offering, and this fish-faced statue was the bizarre sculpture the old ancestor acquired back then.
And now, near this worshipped statue, Lance sensed a strange presence.
