Tentacle Resolutions

Sage Stirling loves his research on various tentacled entities. However, in his head, they are best kept in the pages of the books he buries his nose in. It’s safer that way. However, when doing a favor for a friend, he finds himself closer than he ever imagined he’d be to a pair of popular Krakens. Is it time for him to ditch the books for some hands on research? Or is his love for Krakens best left as broken New Year resolution.
