Mythology

Selkies are neither fairies nor mermaids. And yet, they are something between a dream and a curse. In the water, they are seals – quiet, gliding, with deep eyes that humans tend to avoid. But when they come ashore, they can slip off their skin and transform. Into a woman. Into a man. Into a being that looks human, but never truly is.

A water spirit / demon from ponds and rivers. You will learn that he rides a catfish, drowns people, and what offerings are made to him.
