Octopus

Octopus

A shapeshifting prince with the ocean as his throne
A spinelss brave with a shadow as his soul

A four- fold embrace, and a venomous gaze
A phantom with no face in a place of lost space

An eight pointed star that drifts beneath the sun
A blue blooded ghost with three hearts that beat as one
