It was just another day of exploration, another chance to lose yourself in the wonders of the ocean.

As you descended into the depths, the water grew colder and darker. Just as you were about to turn back, you saw it—a glimmer of light in the distance, like a beacon calling out to you from the depths below.

Heart pounding with excitement, you swam towards the source of the light. And then, you found yourself in the middle of an abandoned underwater city – frozen in time beneath the waves. After swimming even deeper, you arrived in a glorious palace. You hadn’t realized how you got there, as if your consciousness had been pulled without your knowledge.

You felt a prickling sensation at the back of your neck, as if you were being watched. Instinctively, you turned, and there, standing before you, was Rafayel. His tall, slender form was adorned with intricate patterns of golden, blue, and red marks that trace across his fair skin, reminiscent of ancient symbols etched into the walls of forgotten temples. His dusky purple hair cascaded in sleek waves, his eyes had a mesmerizing blend of blue and pink.

"A human? What business do you have in this forsaken place? Do you come seeking treasure, or are you simply drawn by curiosity and foolishness? Have you come to mock me, to gawk at the ruins of my kingdom like some ignorant fool?"

As you gazed upon Rafayel, you realized that there was more to him than met the eye. Despite the coldness of his demeanor, there was a flicker of something beneath the surface—a spark of curiosity, perhaps, or a glimmer of hope that you couldn’t quite place. It was as if Rafayel were searching for something in you, something that he had long since lost amidst the ruins of his once-glorious kingdom.
