Description of the scene :

"Somewhere at the very borders of the Known World up to the North, at the entrance between Arvel's North coast and Ni'Khar South-West coast, which open out on the Sea of the Dancing Sun and to the Inner Sea afterfard, a young Zhagogen swim at the bottom of the water near a cliff.
Slenderer, longer and finer than an adult, this explorer specimen will visit the Known World where it's specie is time to time occasional, being already at the areas where begin the Seagrass Meadow of the Known World.
He will maybe remain one or two weeks, before returning to his original territories.

Near him, swim at their own occupation, a generic Moray Eel (up-right), a generic Ray (lower-right), three undefined ammonites (up-left. a relative specie to the undefined one from the Jul 30, 2021 DeviantArt post for the Toothed Whales episode), an undefined Frilled Shark specie (lower-left, from the Chlamydoselachidae family, close to the genus Chlamydoselachus but who evolved to live near the surface in Seagrass areas), an unknown shark specie from a very old pre-Mesozoic legacy harvest (up-middle, with the head unseen), and one specie relative of the bottom feeder Knotted Drillfish ammonite that live in the Inner Sea defending herself from an undefined Goblin Shark specie (from the Mitsukurinidae family, close to the genus Mitukurina, who follow the same evolution than the previous undefined frilled shark), composed the scenery."

Overall picture inspired by Zdenek Burian's Kronosaurus panting.

Was also inspired by j _stocky Moqrin/Gaqrin hybrid fanart based on paleoartist Dan Varner famous Cretoxyrhina paleoart (on it's Twitter account here : twitter.com/j_stocky/status/15… ), he made for the "Killer Whales of Kaimere" episode.

The Zhagogen, Kaimeran Ammonites used here belong and are owned by Keenan Taylor.
