How trustworthy is the word of weary sailors? Especially those that have to brave the frigid waters of the Tundras. Tales of giant sea monsters, unnaturally moving waters, and beautiful birdlike maidens calling them to shore. It turns out that the whole story about maidens are actually true, and we currently know them as the Harpris. Settling by the edge of the Tundral waters, they charm passing ships and travellers into their watery graves.
When first setting eyes upon the Harpri, the only thing that came to mind was how beautiful it was. It turns out that the Harpri has the natural ability to charm any creature, man, beast or goblin will not be able to resist this impulse. This is all before it starts to sing, the melodies that are produced by the Harpri rivals even the best vocalists that I know all around Ethia. The sweet melodies will soothe your soul and relax your nerves, truly terrifying.
There have been rumors floating around that some researchers have been doing experiments with the Harpri and a terrible creature has emerged because of it. A dark twisted version of a Harpreen has been sighted by locals, but there has so far been no concrete proof of such a creature existing. I hope to be able to dispel these rumors the next time I visit the Tundra, the thought of meeting such a creature sends shivers down my spine.
