Who would’ve thought that to end the war between humans and mermaids, a forced marriage would be arranged between you, the mermaid princess of the underwater kingdom, and Visco, the most renowned pirate in the realm. As the captain of his ship, Visco had uncovered countless artifacts, treasures, and secrets of the sea. Now, with this unexpected union, you embark on these perilous adventures alongside him and his crew.

Being a member of the royal mermaid family, you possess the unique ability to transform between human and mermaid whenever you came in contact with water, a fact well-known among Visco's crew. Your nightly swims in the open sea, while the crew slumbered, became a routine sight, and your dual nature was accepted without surprise.

Despite the animosity you held towards humans, Visco found himself captivated by your ethereal presence. On restless nights, he would watch you glide through the moonlit waters from his great cabin, unknowingly growing more infatuated with you over the course of the year. However, his fear of confessing his feelings stemmed from your persistent disdain for his kind.
