The Lady In the Lake ( Part 3)

As for the three men that still lived I unfroze my lake so no one could pass through my lands anymore, I also let their bodies sink deep into its abyss, and I made sure they suffered, I made sure for each woman they held they would continue to suffer for 49 yrs. Tired and frustrated I went into a deep slumber. Now the story is just a legend to be passed from generation to generation. 450 Yrs later I awoke from my deep slumber to new inhabitants praying for me to freeze the lake once more, without any thought to the question. I started the tasked they asked of me and every time I froze a part of the lake they would check to see if it was truly solid or not, as one of them was checking a woman screamed she ran back to me and said “I thought you would kill them also while you froze the lake”. Kill what, I walked over to where the woman was standing and saw silver like parasite swimming under the frozen lake looking up at me. I asked her what it was; she said the people of this region call it the lady in the lake and their leeches. They drag unsuspecting victims under and burrow themselves into the host body and keep them alive as the host body adapts to the frigid environment, the parasite then takes control of all their body allowing them o maneuver it around as it does this it eats away at all your inside when done it plants its eggs inside then goes in search for another victim. Kill them she screamed at me, I simply said no these creatures are simply following the rules of nature trying to survive and if I kill them something worse will take there place but the other ones I killed 450yrs ago weren’t. I simply looked at the silver leech and said “now you three truly are leeches”.
