->An entire economic powerhouse existed beneath the oceans of the world. Seaweed harvesting, undersea hotels, pearl gleaning, treasure hunts, the mining of manganese nodules, fish farms that spanned entire continental shelves. Salt water was ruinous to robots; nor did cybernetic humans work in the depths of Inner Space. Only these gillmen--superbly adapted by genetic engineering to their fluid environment, ready to come to the aid of their cousins above the waves.

->Webbed claws drag you from your bed, pull you out the window. You try to scream, but a suction-cupped palm smothers your mouth. They pull you into icy waters. They pull you beyond light. They pull you down to the crushing depths where titanic pressure pulps you into something more edible.
->Normally, the sea keeps its carnivorous secrets, but even the ocean mouth can't hold back the vicious punchline all of the time. And so, the Deep Ones emerge. They are native to the [[EvilIsDeathlyCold cold depths]] of every ocean. They rarely see the sun, build [[UnderwaterCity their cities]] among the thermal vents, in those alien environments that do not require solar energy. And now they rise, the infernal fish-frogs.
