After the Dragon Scorpion Avatar refused the "courtship," other Sea Monsters lowered their guard, cautiously approaching in hopes of submitting and offering their services.
In the depths of the Black Sea, strength is the only law. Ancient demonic beasts like the Ten-Tailed Dragon Scorpion could command countless Sea Monsters with a single order, forming a powerful faction beneath the waves.

He initially wanted to harvest them, but discovered a "Dead Thing" lurking within.

After circling the pillar and finding no sign of the strange fiend energy, he continued his search.
