The Seamaster

As I considered, the ancient continued, "You have heard of left and right, up and down, even forward and back. But what of the next dimension? We call it 'above' and 'below.' Right now, the division between the two is in turmoil, churning like great waves in a sea storm. It is hard in such times to tell the difference between the two, for the above mingles with the below in tumultuous conflict. That is the cause of the events which are troubling you." The ancient sighed gravely and reached up to brush back a whisp of white hair. "May the Seamaster make peace between these waves, and soon, for all our sakes."
