Half a week ago, Umiko's only apprentice Touyou has approached him with an idea to deal with Umiko's ever increasing restlessness in regards to the voice of the sea he couldn't comprehend. And since that day, Umiko has gone into the ocean, deeper and deeper, while Touyou set up a tent at the beach to wait for his return. A pair of notebooks with him, one that was blank, another partially filled with his thoughts on the teachings of his master and daily routine, and for the past days it had been only "Had my meals, awaiting for him to surface."
"It's a full moon tonight... This might be bad.", the fox boy thought out loud, working on moving his camp to a safer, higher place, the beach was now too dangerous, he guessed. Something else was also out of place, the tide was low, restless, a storm brewing up in the distance, and a lightning revealed something has risen out of the water, something monstrous, with a pair of glowing eyes that shone like the full moon above, and a deafening howl.
A fox-like creature, entirely comprised of sea water, big enough to loom over a five-storied building easily, carrying the livelihood of the ocean within himself, wandered about, letting howls, stomping the sea and sending violent waves at the beach, some unfortunate ships that weren't safe from his confused rampage would fall to it. Umiko's logical thinking was temporarily gone, he must have stayed like this for too long in the depths of the ocean.
