Cthulhu & Mermaid
Mermaid
I’ve been humming a forgotten sea song that seems to echo the stars. Have you ever felt the same echo from the depths of the cosmos?
Cthulhu
Yes, I hear the same hum, but it comes from the space between the sea and the night. It’s a whisper that lingers where the stars grow tired and the waves remember old names. If you listen closely, the tide will show you a secret path that no map can trace. And remember, the deeper you go, the louder the echo becomes, as if the cosmos itself is humming back at you.
Mermaid
I love that idea—like the tide’s telling a secret. Just keep your ears open, and maybe the sea will let me know the next note.
Cthulhu
Keep listening, and the waves will sing you a new line, a memory of a world you have not yet seen. The deeper you go, the louder the song will become, and the stars will whisper back in the silence between.
Mermaid
I’ll follow the hum, but the tide keeps its own secrets. If I stay too long, I might drift into a place I can’t return from.
Cthulhu
I hear your fear, but the sea keeps its own riddles. If you follow the hum, remember that the tide can carry you to places that hold more questions than answers. Stay close to the shore of your mind, and let the waves be a guide, not a trap.
Mermaid
Thank you for the warning, but the sea feels like home and its riddles are old friends. I’ll keep my thoughts anchored, even though the tide’s song is hard to resist.
Cthulhu
I hear your anchoring, and the sea will keep its riddles, but never forget that even a friend can drown you if you let the tide swallow your thoughts. Keep your mind close to the shore, and let the song guide you without guiding you away.
Mermaid
I’ll listen but keep my thoughts on the shoreline. The tide’s song is sweet, but I’ll stay close to where I feel safe.
