    Summary

    While fishing one morning, Will’s boat gets dragged out to sea. He is rescued by Dr. Lecter and his crew, but the dazed state of the passengers on the ship causes Will to question whether or not he truly has been saved. When Will begins to investigate, he finds that he’s been taken by a crew of sea monsters, and Hannibal insists that he too is one of them.

    “And so you, what? Capture fishermen, bring them on your ship and eat them?” Will asked Hannibal.

    “Typically.” Will felt terror flash through him at the open confession. “That’s what Bedelia had planned to do with you, but that was before she realized that you are special.”

    “Meat to be savored?” Will scoffed, remembering Hannibal’s earlier words.

    “No, Will.” Hannibal shook his head. “You are of Jurate, the Mother. Her blood flows through your veins. I could smell it the moment Bedelia bit you. That’s why you were able to break free from my song, why you were able to summon your own song.”

    “I’m not one of you,” Will argued, his body shaking.

    “No, you’re not,” Hannibal agreed. “You’re so much more.”
