Glass Octopus — GHOST: Its entire body is 100% transparent | Benthos Error

What if the only proof you exist is your eyes?

The Glass Octopus has no skin to hide behind — its body is completely transparent, organs suspended in open water like a living display case. That white cylinder drifting in the void? That's its gut, fully exposed to anything hunting below. Only its rectangular pupils give it away, two floating windows staring back from something that technically isn't there.

Below the last light.
