About the Name

The photic zone, euphotic zone (Greek for "well lit": εὖ "well" + φῶς "light"), or sunlight zone is the depth of the water in a lake or ocean that is exposed to such intensity of sunlight which designates compensation point.

The name is ironic as the Eereek is a dark and dreary creature whom hides in places where we would never venture to.. Sometimes..

Despite their frightening appearance, Eereek are extremely social creatures. Once an Eereek hatches it instinctively searches for the nearest human and will imprint on this person, forming a lifetime bond with them. For this reason Arkians know to keep their Eereek eggs very close by when they are nearing gestation. A mistake could be deadly, as some people may mistake a young Eereek's affection for aggression and react with fear, or worse, a rolled up newspaper.
