Summary
The god kids are horrified to learn that Wil's meeting with Duncan Kane has granted him extra power over them. Aphrodite gives them all a definite but unclear warning, and when Bells tries to contact her for details they discover the Narrator's powers have begun to warp Aphrodite into a shadow of her true self. Meanwhile vampire ogres from the folklore of Ghana have shown up, completely incongruously, at the beach.

New

 * Pacifica - A mermaid living off the beach of El Dorado who hires the god kids to get rid of the Asanbosam that ate her brother. (She/her)
 * Asanbosam - Originally ogre-like creatures from the folklore of Ghana, known to hide in trees and tangle passers by in their dangling legs before eating them with iron teeth. Some strange version of these has appeared under water attacking mermaids off the coast of El Dorado.
 * Tracy Butler - Another Narrator, who apparently died in a car crash the day before El Dorado disappeared. Liked writing Digimon fanfic. (she/her)
