Mistmother
Huge fey, neutral evil
The reservoir keeps one morning it never spends, folded thick over the black water, and she is the mother of it. The Mistmother walks the dam road humming the lullaby every drowned child half-remembers, and her arms close around whoever stops to listen. Ferrymen count their passengers twice in her season. The second count is the one that matters.
