Here I am, in this boundless sea of blood. No sound could be heard, save for the ones I make.
I don't know where I am, or what am I doing here. A sword in my hand, It's all I have and all I am.
What kind of place is this, anyway? The sea's depth seems vast, and yet, I can walk on it like it's solid.
Food and water are nonexistent, yet strangely, I have no need for it. I've been walking for god knows how long, yet I don't feel hungry or thirsty.
I don't know where I came from, and nor do I recall my name. My mind is foggy, and I can only remember tiny bits.
The color red is getting boring, I want to leave this place.

A story about a world filled with fairy tales and folklore creatures, all of whom are alive, and their worlds are very much real. However, instead of the usual happy stories, most of these creatures have been inflicted with Madness, degrading their minds, and sanity, and mutilating their bodies. It grants them massive strength, but of course, at the cost of their sanity.
(Don't expect much. I just like fairy tales and wanted to add a nice spin to it, adding a bloodborne-esque feeling to it. Beware, though, this story will have 18+ elements, and a lot of monster girls)
One moment, she was an ordinary teacher. The next, she was gone, swallowed by a void of darkness. When she finally opens her eyes, it isn't to a familiar world-it's to the crushing depths of an endless ocean, her reflection revealing a body covered in golden scales.
Reincarnated as a fish in a world she doesn't understand, she's thrust into a relentless fight for survival. A strange system binds itself to her, offering a single chance: level up or be consumed. The rules are brutal-eat or be eaten-and the ocean is teeming with predators that defy imagination.
But as she grows stronger and evolves, she begins to see glimpses of a purpose she cannot yet grasp. The tides carry whispers of secrets buried in the abyss, of monsters sleeping in the deep, and of powers far greater than her own.
She thought death was the end. She was wrong. It was only the beginning.
In this world, survival isn't guaranteed, and transformation comes at a cost. The ocean waits, dark and unforgiving. Will she rise with the tide-or be lost beneath it?
