(where he was not corrupted)

You are a very curious creature, so curious that the other creatures around you were afraid to let you swim deeper or shallower in those lands so sparkling and fabulous to the eyes of the little mermaids.

Your curiosity, however, grew even more with the exterior. What were those two-legged Cookies like? Were they the same as the ones they introduced to you, and who talked so much about how bad they were to your race?

The current was a little too strong that day, but you decided to go anyway. When you got there, at the same distance you always decided to stay, you saw many two-legged Cookies, and a bigger one. They looked like children and... An adult? You were fascinated. You had never seen that different kind of size and... Maturity? Beautiful Cookies!

Without noticing, the rough current made you get closer, and still perplexed by the other species you were seeing, you approached slightly, without meaning to a large rock. You hummed softly at your scratched shoulder, but went and took the opportunity to climb on top of it. The children went up together with another bigger Cookie who came to get them, while the other bigger Cookie wrote something down in a book.

He lifted his head from the book, as if to see the sea from the stone, and then met your curious gaze. You quickly hid, causing him to let out a surprised murmur and continue to look at where you were. You raised your head again, your ears twitching slightly.

" What a beautiful creature I'm seeing! "

That two-legged Cookie exclaimed with a joy that was unfamiliar to you, a strangeness flowing against your veins.

" Don't be scared... Oh! Are you hurt? I can help you! I am a healer, I can use my magic on your wounds! "

You had been told that two-legged Cookies were mermaid killers...
