Chapter 2 Aquarium Ruin - Little Mermaid

Completed the second dungeon of the game and it seems to be configuring as a similar pattern as the first game of the series. Each dungeon (except for the tutorial one) are linked to a particular Blood Maiden and you go around searching for the core needed to weaken the Nightmare and be able to kill it in a multi-part battle against it destroying the many pieces that it is composed of. The Nightmare and the dungeon design clearly show who is the owner of the dungeon which, in this case, was Little Mermaid (water based, lots of blue, etc...).

Apparently it was here that Otsuu first found her and immediately declared to her. She doesn't even know why, but knew she loved her at first sight. I'm still unsure about what is the fairy tale that Otsuu is based on, the name itself makes me think something Japanese, but I wasn't able to find definitive proof in the few posts online I searched. I didn't want to go too much deep to avoid spoiler so I guess I'll wait until they reveal more themselves.

I'm a bit puzzled about the final scene that was shown after defeating the nightmare and coming back to the base. Again, we take for a very short moment control of another individual (or Nightmare considering the sounds) as it moves escaping from something in the dungeon. Who is he and why is he connected to Jack? Is it because they're both Nightmare or is it because it's something very strictly linked to Jack (Alice). I hope it's not Alice because I really want her to be playable...

Either way, seems like next stop will be Red Riding Hood. Let's see how it goes!
