I walk upright and have excessively many human features: too many fingers or none at all, no bones or no skin. Perhaps I have several heads. There is something about my mouth that is alarming. A feral tale. Intense heliophobia. Taloned feed as a hawk or a parrot, yet interested in the subaqueous--a castle, for example, entered via lake or river. A subaqueous castle of unbaptized baby spirits is one explanation, but we would have to borrow men to propagate.
