UnBooks:My sojourn/Chapter 18

That time my ship was nearly sunken by some eldritch squid-headed horror during my sojourn in the Pacific Ocean

left

It looked kinda like this, only fucking prodigious and psycho.

Dude, that fucking city was non-Euclidean. Like, WTF?

So there I was

fishing marlin in the fucking Pacific Ocean, doing my fishing rod thing with the mackerel bait and the tuna, right? Like, octopoid antediluvian shit.

and this ancient cyclopean stygian sunken nightmare city

rises out of the depths of the sea, and instead of being dead but dreaming, some loathsome tentacle-faced octopus-dragon thing gropingly squeezes its gelatinous green immensity through a black doorway.

so I steer out my

ship and try to ram the abomination's head, and it tries to sink me! WTF?

I barely got away with a smashed bow and a fractured mast.

No, seriously. It nearly sank me.
