The Lake - Sea Angels, and the Devilfish Lair Quest

- When exploring the Lake or taking the Boat out around the Factory, the Champion could encounter friendly entities known as Sea Angels.

                                                               Sea Angel:

* Sea Angels are Merfolk-like, Loli Sea Slug / Clione-morphs with Cherubic proportions that combine traits of Goo Girls and Anemones, looking somewhat similar to the Disgaea unit based on the same animal:

* They possess fins on their back similar to the 'wings' of the Sea Butterfly, a Sea Snail related to the Sea Angel:

* They appear defenseless, but possess a set of retractable, whiplike stinging tentacles that they can use to defend themselves. (If you don't want the tentacles to extend from the head like the Disgaea unit, you can have them extend from their back / shoulders instead. In Disgaea, there's a demon mouth on top of their head because the real animal keeps its tentacles inside its own mouth, which is situated there)

* The Sea Angels have transparent, luminescent, Goo-like skin, allowing one to see inside them, and they have a visible glowing Slime Core in place of their heart.

* They resemble young girls from the waist up, having flat chests or A-cup breasts, and they possess a frilly fin 'skirt' around where their humanoid waist meets their slug body, underneath which is their vagina. Their womb can be seen inside their abdomen.

* They're very friendly and playful toward Pure / Uncorrupted Champions, especially if the Champion is a Child / Teen.

* At mild - moderate Corruption, they harbor a mild discomfort / distrust towards the Champion, being more curt in their interactions, and if the Champion's Corruption score climbs further, the Sea Angels start actively avoiding them.

* Pure, un-Corrupted creatures at heart, the childlike Sea Angels see Marae as their 'Mommy', and serve the symbolic niche of 'Angelic Messengers' to Marae's 'Goddess' regarding her Domain of the Lake.


- Friendly Sea Angels can be interacted with in a few ways, either:

* Conversing with them - Reduces Corruption, provides some exposition, and possibly provides a gentle allusion toward their quest.

* Playing with them - Reduces Corruption, and potentially leads to the Sea Angel finding an item to gift the Champion.

* Sex - Initially not available, but accessible later if you successfully prove yourself to them. More on that later.

- No matter what option is chosen, a friendly encounter with a Sea Angel ends with them playfully kissing the Champion on the cheek, reducing Corruption by a small bit.

* Of course, a Corrupt / evil Champion could just attempt to dominate a Sea Angel by force, but that's likely to cut off further peaceful contact between the rest of her sisters and the Champion, and possibly even get the attention of Marae regarding how roughly her 'daughters' have been treated.


- Eventually, an encounter would occur where a cowering / unconscious Sea Angel is being approached by another one that looks...off. This mysterious assailant has a green tinge to their skin, a slightly more masculine build, a look of aggression on their face, and, notably, both a perceivable absence of a Slime Core, and a small, nematocyst-lined penis poking out from the frills of their 'skirt'.

- This is a: 


                                                               Fallen Sea Angel

* Fallen Sea Angels are Sea Angels that succumb to Corruption, lose their Slime Cores, and thus have their Goo-Girl aspect change to that of a Green Slime.

* This transformation changes them from Loli to Shota, replaces their vagina / womb with a penis / testes, and makes them much more aggressive toward not just outsiders, but also other Sea Angels as well.

* Unlike the friendly, pure, normal Sea Angels, Fallen Sea Angels are always hostile.

* Fallen Sea Angels are far more eager to turn their dangerous tentacles toward those who displease them, being malicious enough to use them to molest / penetrate their uncorrupted 'sisters' if they can catch them, and willing to spread their corruption by having vaginal sex with them, tainting them and ejecting their Slime Core.



- The Champion intervenes, and, after defeating the Fallen Angel, the rescued Sea Angel provides the Champion with an explanation:

* The tainting machinations of the Factory has attracted a devious Water Demon to the Lake, who has stationed themself there to bask in the empowering Corruption. The Sea Angels refer to this entity as the 'Devilfish'.

* The Devilfish has taken to entertaining themself by ambushing and overpowering the Sea Angels when their guard is down, sexually dominating them, and causing them to Fall in the process.

* The Sea Angel who was rescued knows where the Demon's lair is, and implores the Champion to go there and prevent the Devilfish from Corrupting more of her sisters.


- The Champion goes to the Devilfish's lair (marked in the Dungeons section of the exploration menu), which is a short underwater cave containing several battles with varying numbers of Fallen Sea Angels, and possibly Corrupted feral sealife.

- At the end of the sea cave, the Champion surfaces in an air-filled chamber, containing:

* A pool filled with Slime Cores, kept there as trophies

* A number of captive Sea Angels in another pool, kept there as prisoners / toys

* Several Fallen Sea Angels guarding the entrance to the chamber and standing in waiting

* And the Devilfish themself...

                    

                                                                 Lucia

* Lucia, the dreaded Devilfish, was originally a young Tigershark before succumbing to Lethice's corruptive influence and becoming an aquatic Corrupted terror.

* She resembles a small Tigershark child, seemingly not much older than the Sea Angels, apart from a few anatomical differences, those being an inverted color scheme (reddish-brown stripes on black skin), a short, narwhal-like horn sprouting from her forehead, large, Manta-like fin 'wings' sprouting from her shoulders, a pair of claspers replacing her Tigershark penis, and her Shark tail being replaced with a long Stingray tail tipped with a razor-sharp, venomous sting.

* Lucia is a domineering bully who takes the Tigershark's natural urge to throw their weight around and cranks it up to eleven. She accosts all those she feels are inferior to her (pretty much anyone and everyone), attempting to Corrupt them even as she has her way with them. She does not claim to be the strongest Demon, but she has succeeded in carving out a niche for herself in the Lake's 'food chain' nevertheless.


- If the dungeon is delved into pre-Factory, the Champion enters the chamber just as Lucia is performing anal sex with a Fallen Sea Angel, maintaining a completely and utterly bored look on her face even as the Shota is ejaculating from the stimulation. When she notices the Champion, she drops the exhausted Angel and her dead-eyed look twists into a sinister grin. Proclaiming that it's time to try out her new toy, she charges the Champion for a boss fight.

- If the dungeon is delved into after shutting down the Factory safely, there will be less Fallen Sea Angels guarding Lucia, and the Demon herself will be in a groggy, weakened state, being 'hung-over / withdrawn' from the cutoff of the Factory's corruption. She will rant at the Champion about not letting them ruin her fun, and attack. Her attacks include a bite, using her claws, attacking with her horn, and stinging with her tail (which adds some arousal points, possibly along with a trace of Corruption).

- When defeated, (and possibly giving Lucia a taste of her own medicine by having sex with her, which may or may not raise Corruption, I haven't decided), the Champion frees the Devilfish's prisoners, and has a few options regarding how to deal with her:

* They can order her into exile, making it clear that she's no longer the strongest in the Lake.

* They can elect to shove her off of a ledge, causing her to fall a long distance into a raging whirlpool, the entrance of which is then sealed off by a falling rock, effectively sending the Devilfish back to Hell.

* They can ask the Sea Angels what to do with her, whereupon they will mention finding a way to reverse severe Corruption, and, with Marae's help, develop a way to Purify the Devilfish and return her to her senses, whereupon the ashamed Raymorph will become one of Marae's disciples in order to atone.



- Whichever option is taken, the liberated Sea Angels will reclaim the stolen Slime Cores and return them to their Fallen siblings, causing them to regain their senses and return to normal.



- If both this quest and the original Factory Quest are both completed, a Sea Angel will approach the Champion and suddenly give them a passionate kiss on the lips, revealing to them that she and her sisters have developed a precocious crush on the 'brave, strong hero' who saved both them and their 'Mommy'. (This is when the option to approach Sea Angels for sex unlocks.) She also instructs the Champion to return to Marae for a reward.

- After returning to Marae's island, she thanks the Champion for vanquishing two great evils, and bestows upon them said reward, which turns out to be a sacred flower (specifically an Anemone).

- She instructs the Champion to steep the flower into tea, and, before bedding someone they truly love, either drink it or have said partner do so.

- This Anemone flower is enchanted to ensure conception of a child, and result in said child being living anathema to Corruption, a shining beacon of purity. Essentially graced with a small mote of the divine Purity of Marae herself.

- This sacred elixir would eventually be imbibed by the Champion, FL, or Kid A, leading into the events of https://pst.moe/paste/gusjdt and the proceeding subposts, resulting in the conception and birth of Eleionomae.


- If the Factory is instead *overloaded and destroyed* before the dungeon is delved into, this will result in the dungeon becoming inaccessible, the ratio of pure to Fallen Sea Angels inverting (with the numbers of Fallen Angels growing out of control, and the remaining few pure Angels being understandably horrified by what the Champion has done to their mother figure and their sisters,either attacking the Champion on sight or fleeing in terror), and an empowered Lucia will ambush the Champion, now grown to the proportions of a girl in her mid-Teens, and she'll mockingly thank the Champion for the 'help' while Corrupting a Sea Angel right in front of them, culminating in a harder version of Lucia's boss battle.

- There are no significant rewards for this bad-end route beyond either a sexual favor / large quantity of Gems / both from Lucia after defeating her and agreeing to spare her life, or her snapped-off horn upon deciding to permanently dispose of her, in which case she's backhanded hard enough to snap said horn and dragged away screaming by a horde of her own Fallen Sea Angel playthings.
