Authors:
Genres: Fiction
Polyps were in bloom, undulating to some unheard rhythm, combing the sea water with long, slender tentacles. Nearby were strange corals. Some had convoluted surfaces, like the sulci of a human brain. From within the convolutions rose thin worms resembling red strands of rubber. The sea floor looked like a living carpet. A few small fish patrolled, searching for food, but shied away from the spider whenever it moved its legs. Some were large—barracudas and the like.
The sea spider looked up and
...saw a golden cone of light cut through the water. It was the light from a high-powered flashlight held by a passenger on the ferry. As the light penetrated the clear waters it reflected off a school of small fish, which sparkled like stars.
Suddenly the billowing skirts of a lion's mane jellyfish glimmered beneath a small vault of ice. The jellyfish was a mobile restaurant for small crustaceans, which snatched scraps of food from the jellyfish's open maw. This area of the sea seemed to be a zoo of life, because of the abundant nutrients and rich oxygen concentration.
