Little bioluminescent creatures, their skin so thin one can see the rosiness of blood under, and behind them a huge, monstrous creature, her skin pitch black as if she was part of the abyss itself... it's their mama!
Baby deepsea merfolks are tiny and light up like fireflies of the deep, attracting predators... which tend to be smaller than their mothers, who are fully black, have a perfect control over their own photophores, and won't mind taking a bite out of the wannabe hunters. Mama's little lures ✨
