It's very easy to be disoriented & that can kill divers. Amphibious creatures like these might also have good reasons to fear darkness underwater. Disorientation too would be a primal fear. | |

Though i will point otu that your comment about darkness depends on where they live in water. if the creature can move in air they likely lived close enough to the surface (to have adaptations for handling areas without water) that they likely would be familar with light. Likewise, a creature who lives close enough to the surface to be use to light may be adapted to use it for travel, and may thus be afraid of darkness making it harder to see predators. Maybe their fear of dark depends on how 'deep they feel they are (based off of G force they feel) | |
