Otherwise, if you're ready, allow me to tell you a story:
No one ever found that vessel. He never heard my replies, my frantic shouts into the radio as the sea breeze whipped against the harbor station walls.
For a time I thought I could have saved him. But he was lost, doomed to something obscene. Or perhaps only to himself.
These were his final words, to the best of my recollection:
(1) "Mayday, mayday, mayday!"(2) "This is the DHH André."(3) "The ship's adrift en route to Copenhagen."(4) "But this godforsaken storm."(5) "I don't know where we are anymore."
(6) "There's…a creature."(7) "Words can't describe."(8) "It's ruptured the hull, hungry for the flesh of the corpses left inside."(9) "The ones it hasn't stolen away to the depths already."
(10) "Time is running short."(11) "The boat, my mind…slipping away, taking on water."(12) "Sinking from the weight of my sins."(13) "The beast will soon bury us at sea."
(14) "Lord, how I wish we'd never found that accursed tome."(15) "The rancid text we dredged up from the mud."(16) "If only we had smothered it with flame at first sight."(17) "But instead I invited its wickedness into my heart."
(18) "Its words were foreign, at first."(19) "But soon they possessed my very spirit."(20) "Their intent sprung forth in a rapturous symphony."(21) "A festival of craving, of ravenous purpose."
(22) "The crew must be sacrificed — all of them!"(23) "How else could the words grace me with the presence of their maker?"
(24) "I began with the captain, whose throat I slit in the safety of his cabin."(25) "Then I watched with glee as the men turned on each other, paranoia claiming the lives of many."(26) "But I was careful, ever patient; not a soul suspected my guilt as I slunk in the shadows."
(27) "As their numbers dwindled, I could feel the maker's wild eye nearing, its call for death a swelling tempest 'neath a dark sky of damnation."
(28) "The rest I can scarcely recall."(29) "Their blood is splattered upon me still."
(30) "I know now that I will not be spared, that I was nothing more than feeble prey to the unknowable."(31) "Yet as the ocean laps upon my face, I know I will soon be free."
Phew. Welcome to Daily Horror Hunt #93!
I wanted to try something a little different for my first time hosting: not just individual prompts, but a short story that ties everything together. Hopefully it's a reasonably entertaining one.
The portions in bold serve as the basis for the prompts, which I've tried to make as varied as possible while keeping things coherent.
If you haven't already, head over to list view for the full prompt details, or check out the list of abbreviated prompts below that you can copy-paste.
If you're not interested in a particular prompt, it might be fun to reinterpret the corresponding line from the story to come up with a new prompt!
