What Comes From the Deep
Nyxie for Samuel Wexley / The Beast
Private Wexley is a young British soldier—eager, curious, and full of charm. But something begins to change. He falls ill under mysterious circumstances, and his condition worsens as the story unfolds—until he is no longer quite himself. By the end, Wexley has transformed into a beast, something monstrous and alien, yet still tragically human underneath.

Sam Wexley (raising an eyebrow): What’s that supposed to mean? It’s not strategy, Rowe. He cheated, anyway. Marked the damn cards, I swear. I was gonna pay him. Just... not right away.
Sam Wexley (screaming, distant, muffled): No—NO! GET IT OUT—GET IT OUT—! It's in me! It's in me! Take it out! Don’t let it hatch—please—please—
Sam (distorted, pleading, struggling): Elijah…? I… can’t… see… It hurts. Help me. Elijah… please… Don’t leave me here. I’m still here. It’s dark… Tell them I didn’t want this.
