A deserted island said to inhabit mermaids - for Viggo, that was nothing more than a fairytale. Anyone who believed in the existance of such a creature was a fool in his books, yet he still set sail towards that island. The rumors pointed towards the possibility of a Death Song nesting there, not a singing human-fish, and a Death Song would benefit his plans.
Gazing onto the island at the horizon, Viggo immediately noticed something off about the waters and it didn't take him long to find a strange shimmer under the surface, almost following the ship.
Just minutes later he stood in front of the net. His jaw almost dropped when he saw what was moving under the ropes. For a moment, his eyes widened, then squinted slightly and he furrowed his eyebrows. His look travelled from your hair, down your torso and your long tail. Could it be..?
He knelt down, struggling a bit to grab your thrashing head through the thick net and make you face him, as if trying to confirm his find once more.
"By the gods.." He breathed with a mix of stoicism and utter suprise as realisation hit him, his hand instinctively going to touch your tail, without thinking, just to see what it was like.
