From the Depths She Comes

The party placed Sunraya in her bed next to her sleeping parents. As they left the room and looked around what remained in the village. The waters were quiet and still without the fishing boats out amongst the waves. The gulls waited, expecting the scraps from the latest catch that would never come.
But as the party watched the gulls swimming on top of the light waves the beginnings of fog started to creep across the water. As the fog crept closer to the jetty and moored boats the surface it thickened as if summoned from the waves itself. As the party watched from their position a large, hulking creature strode from the water onto the shore. Covered in large swaths of seaweed it straightened up and looked around the village with a cruel smile twisting its features.
A woman, some would say beautiful if not for the clothes that looked as if it had been salvaged from those lost at sea. As she sunk her toes into the sand, soil and gravel of the land of Launghui she inhaled deeply. ‘After years the blood oath is complete. The villagers that pillage the waters and refuse to trade with my sisters and mother is no more. The curse fully enacted.’ as she spoke water dribbled from her mouth.
A laugh, mad and joyful broke from her mouth. ‘To think the fish that they loved so much would be their downfall. It was easy mother! Like you said, ask the fish to feed upon the urchins and snails and the meat would be tainted with poison. As long as I kill them all before they wake in a few days time then they will be gone for good.’
The party watched as she strode forward, her eyes wandering across the houses and buildings of the port village. Before, they settled on them. ‘Some still wake sisters. Something that I was not planning for. Yet these are not the villagers that refused us, that drove us out, that attacked and hunted us. Or those who killed mother. No these as outsiders.’ she paused as she straightened herself. The touch of magic prickled their skins as she attempted to charm them.
‘You wont attack and drive me away like they did will you? Its been hard being lonely for so long. All we wanted was to partake in the feasts, the merriment from the creatures that they caught from the sea. Yet when we asked they drove us away. This is just fair and just retribution that we must do. Something we must see through.’ her words sounded like pleas, but the hidden threat was real.
The party were in danger of becoming the source of the sea witches hatred if they didn’t think quickly and act even more so.
