Individuals entered the Kraken through her [[beak]]. Her interior was just as organic-looking as her exterior, with [[James Coker]] perceiving [[TARDIS control room|the control room]] as "a [[cathedral]] of [[flesh]]". The room was 100 [[feet]] high, with [[sinew]] arches supporting a "glistening ceiling of puce [[muscle|musculature]]". At the centre of the Kraken's control room there was a [[Spanish]] [[galleon]]; her [[TARDIS control console|console]] was merged with the ship's steering wheel. The Kraken's corridors resembled [[bone]]y [[pipe]]s. | Individuals entered the Kraken through her [[beak]].

The Kraken | While they were with Anne Bonny, [[Christèmas]] approached the Kraken and the Hussar asking for help in acquiring the [[2nd Second]] from the [[Chance Coteries]]. They agreed. The Kraken maneuvred through [[Collateral Belt|the Chance Coteries' temporal shield]] and materialised in the [[axiomatic vault]], where - on Chris' suggestion - she murdered the Hussar. The Kraken then [[time loop]]ed the vault, creating an environment where the Hussar's corpse could be used to create a [[loa]]. After the loa was created by the intersection of the timelines of Anne Bonny, [[Chantelle (Weapons Grade Snake Oil)|Chantelle]], and [[Sojourner Hooper-Agogô]], the Kraken scooped it up in her [[tentacle]]s and took it away from the Coteries along the same path she had taken to get in, passing her past self along the way. | ||
The Kraken joined the [[Bankside]] division of Faction Paradox and took on the name "Cecilia". For her work in acquiring the loa, Cecilia was promoted to be a cousin.
