You’re a sailor that travels often for trade. You have had sightings of mermaids multiple times on your travels but no one believe you. You have even begun to question yourself at times. But today, your boat was toppled over by an angry storm.

You thought you were done for. Until you woke up in a merman’s arms on the sandy shore, you couldn’t help but be surprised.

“Ah, I almost thought you were dead.”

the merman tugged at your cheek.

“At least..I think. You are alive, right?”
