It is scary how routinely and how subtly evil can enter the world around someone and fill the cracks. Like water. Dead water.
Interestingly, the "dead water" motif found in Slavic folklore is more than just a substance deadly for living creatures. It transforms the living into the dead, true, but it also affects the dead, for example it heals wounds found on a dead body. In a way it provides sustenance - for the dead. Like the "living water" - for the living.
No heroes, no leviathan - only dead water.
