Story[]
Charybdon[]
- Intro
- Nightmare Voice: Heed my call... Grovel before its might! Come...
- Zoin: Lotley, the tide is rising.
- Lotley: Yeah, I can tell, Zoin. Human's still asleep, though. They're twitching, having a nightmare?
- Zoin: They're not asleep! Eyes open, see? Get up, human!
- Lotley: Look, we, uh, need help. You help us!
- Zoin: Hey, let's be nice. If we're nice, the human will help.
- Lotley: Human! You help me! PLEASE!
- Zoin: Didn't you see water bubbling while you slept, human? And something huge stirring deep under the sea? Shame, it sure was a sight to behold!
- Lotley: Everyone's been having nightmares ever since. Lotley is afraid to shut his eyes.
- Zoin: Monsters crawl from the sea as the tide devours everything... Us? No, we ain't no monsters. We're the victims here.
- Lotley: Aaaah! Something's approaching! Lotley's scared! Banish the monster!
- Zoin: Help us, won't you, human? If you do, I'll tell you what happened.
- Battle
- Charybdon: Succumb to the call of that which lurks in the depths!
- Outro
- Lotley: You're strong, human. You can help us. Help us so much! Thing is, we're also humans. We're just cursed real bad. Tell them, Zoin!
- Zoin: Yeah, we're totally humans! From the nearby village, we are. We're lazy, and that's what saved us. Everyone went to the shore to check the fishing nets, and we stayed in the backyard to enjoy the sunshine.
- Lotley: And look what happened to us. We're fishfolk now!
- Zoin: And that's not the worst part. I shudder to imagine what happened to folks on the shore.
- Lotley: Yeah. They're evil monsters now. The tentacles! The claws! So, you help us, human. Save our neighbors. Make them normal and good, like they always were.
- Zoin: If you dispel that magic, maybe we'll become normal too? After all, your're still normal. Who knows why you weren't transformed...
Reborn[]
- Intro
- Nightmare Voice: I named them my children, and gifted them with the colossal power of the Dark Depths. Join them, mortal. Bow before me! Accept me as your master!
- Lotley: Wakey, wakey! Get up. You promised you'd help our neighbors!
- Zoin: Don't be rude, Lotley. Can't you see they're being plagued by nightmares again?
- Lotley: Sorry, human, Save our neighbors, will you? PLEASE DO!
- Zoin: So, our elder and his daughter are the first. Always been deathly pale, those two, but now...
- Lotley: The girl's still a treat to look at! The man looks like he just rose from the grave, though. Oh, and they'd also summon demons from the underworld at night! Sill, they were lovely neighbors. Nice and quiet. Always clean, too!
- Zoin: Shut up, Lotley! Look here, human. Once they were turned, they became even stronger than before. Maybe you could beat them up real bad and dispel the magic. Y'know, make them normal again?
- Lotley: Can you at least try? You're one powerful human!
- Battle
- Corvus: I've accepted the gift of the Dark Depths! The power granted to me knows no bounds!
- Outro
- Corvus: They took my power!
- Morrigan: Indeed, Father. Mine as well.
- Lotley: Just like that! Boom! No more scary and powerful monsters! Just ordinary humans.
- Zoin: Thank you, human. I'm kinda sorry you're having nightmares. You seem alright.
Fanatic[]
- Intro
- Nightmare Voice: You took away the gift of the Dark Depths from my beloved children. You anger me, mortal! The abyss awaits you, so dark and endlessly deep...
- Lotley: What's going on, Zoin? Over there, on the cliff on our right.
- Zoin: That's some occult businesses right there. Look! They're worshiping that which lurks in the depths...
- Lotley: Hey, you there! Our human's going to make fried fish out of ya! Our human's going to give you what for!
- Zoin: Lotley, you moron! Can't you stay quiet? Look what you've done!
- Lotley: Oh. Uh oh... Are they after us? Save us, human. Or we won't get to meet the rest of our neighbors!
- Battle
- Elmir: The Master will accept us in his circle. The Master will choose us!
- Outro
- Aurora: Fall back!
- Elmir: By the lucker in the depths... We'll get you next time!
- Lotley: We barely made it!
- Zoin: If the human hadn't helped, we'd have made nothing at all.
- Lotley: I can see our neighbors! Ugh, they look quite scary now. Brrr... And yet they're so strong and powerful!
- Zoin: So, what are we waiting for? Let's return them back to normal! We just might lift the curse from ourselves, too!
- Lotley: Wait, Zoin. Let me catch my breath!
Renegade[]
- Intro
- Nightmare Voice: Don't you dare touch my servants... Bow... Submit...
- Zoin: Wake up! It's time to go, human.
- Lotley: Yeah, we need to hurry and save our neighbors.
- Zoin: They are two brothers. A bit distant, and their sense of humor is on the weird side.
- Lotley: Yeah. Phil and Charl. Their jokes can literally kill! Let's save our neighbors! Y'know, lift the curse, return them back to normal. Do it, human! Please!
- Battle
- Phobos (Phil): The gift of the Dark Depths is my new power!
- Outro
- Phobos (Phil): My precious! The power of the Dark Depths is taken from me!
- Zoin: Yeah, Phil. Don't worry, it's over. Go get some rest.
- Lotley: You did so well, human! Thanks so much for saving our neighbors! You're so good, so skilled, so...
- Zoin: Ugh! Lotley, will you please shut up already!
Abyssal Spawn[]
- Intro
- Nightmare Voice: Have you defied me, mortal? Have you disobeyed the will of the Master of the Abyss? My heir will decide your fate!
- Lotley: Something's rising from the water. Something huge! Defeat it, human! What do you mean, you don't want to? Are you scared of your nightmare?
- Zoin: Hey, that's not what we agreed on. We all see nightmares, but we're still moving forward. We need to save those who succumbed to the Master of the Abyss. That's what matters.
- Lotley: It's all for a good cause. You help us, human!
- Battle
- Abyssal Spawn: No one shall resist my ancestor's will!
- Outro
- Lotley: That sure was a scary one. Ugh!
- Zoin: If that was the heir, what does the dad look like? Y'know, the one whispering in our nightmares.
- Lotley: I-I don't think I want to know that. Let's go ahead and save the rest of our neighbors. They're evil and very powerful. And then they'll be normal and totally good!
Abjurer[]
- Intro
- Nightmare Voice: You draw ever closer... To my revenge! Fool! Having dared to defy me, you'll find no mercy!
- Lotley: I'm hungry. I could eat a whole... Oh! Good morning, good human.
- Zoin: That's right. Today's an important day!
- Lotley: We're going to save the last of our neighbors. Then, no more! We're gonna be sooo good!
- Battle
- Satori: I got what I was after. The gift of the Dark Depths is mine at last!
- Outro
- Lotley: Ahhh! How wonderful! So very wonderful!
- Zoin: Yeah, it's pretty good. The human helped us save all our neighbors.
- Lotley: They don't look all that awful anymore. What did they need with all that power anyway? Yeah, you did very well! Good human!
- Zoin: We have a gift for you. You'll find out all about it tomorrow. For now, get some rest.
Master of the Abyss[]
- Intro
- Nightmare Voice: You're here. You have come. You will submit! Now I am your master! I AM YOUR MASTER!
- Zoin: Hush, Lotley. Don't wake the human... Still, it sure turned out great in the end!
- Lotley: Yes! Good, very good! The human drove away those posers and took their power! Now we're the Master's head servants!
- Master of the Abysss: Grovel, you filthy maggots! Where's the human?
- Zoin: Right here, Master.
- Lotley: We did everything as you asked, Master. We didn't hurt anyone. We just brought them here. But the human thumped your other servants. Poor things!
- Master of the Abysss: Silence. You will be punished for your deceit!
- Lotley: Oooh. Uh oh...
- Master of the Abysss: You conspired with the human to deprive my servants of my gift, the power of the Dark Depths. You took what was mine!
- Lotley: But... We...
- Master of the Abysss: And you, human... You're special. YOu didn't transform like the rest of them. Didn't succumb to my call. You could've become my viceroy on land. But you just had to ruin everything. And now you'll pay the price!
- Battle
- Master of the Abysss: Heed my call, mortal! Grovel before this might!
- Outro
- Zoin: Get up, human!
- Lotley: Ugh, come on! Are you just gonna lie there? We, uh... We wanted to apologize. For bringing you to the Master.
- Zoin: And for using you to get rid of our rivals. The ones with the gift of the Dark Depths, I mean.
- Lotley: Also, we ain't no humans. Been fishfolk all our lives. Bound to serve the immortal Master for all eternity. We had no idea you had the special mark! A rare mark!
- Zoin: That's what helped you defeat the Master.
- Lotley: And... Since he's dead anyway, can we serve you instead? It's our duty...
- Zoin: Lotley, did you hear that? The human said they're setting us free.
- Lotley: What do you mean, Zoin? Can we, uh, do whatever we want or something? Eat all we want, too? Sing aloud? Never obey orders?
- Zoin: Of course, Lotley. You and I are now free birds!
- Lotley: Free fishes, you mean? Or something like that?
- Zoin: Ugh, Lotley! Don't take it literally!
- Lotley: Oooh! Thank you, human. We promise we'll be good from now on. Lotley will help everyone. Lotley will love all people!
