Ashes of the First Flame

A colossal, petrified hand rises from the surf, covered in barnacles and glowing fungi that emit an eerie light. Locals believe this hand belonged to a sea god whose death poisoned the surrounding waters, leading to strange currents and mutated sea creatures that now haunt the coastline.

The hand is massive, with fingers stretching out like ancient tree roots, encrusted with vibrant, bioluminescent fungi that pulse softly in the dark. The surrounding waters are murky, swirling with unnatural colors, and the air is thick with the scent of salt and decay.
