Within a deep and ancient sea, a terror bides its time
A titanic monstrosity devoid of name and clime
An otherworldly oddity outwith imagination
A terrifying entity defying explanation.
Gargantuan mass of flesh and eyes, of horn, of tails and teeth

Apocalyptic presence wiser than mere mortal Gods
Cosmic abomination lurking realms from mortal thoughts.
