~ Picture is from Pinterest; and the story idea I got from the webtoon “Fins”. I just liked the concept and wanted to have a similar story from the starting point of said webtoon🙈: In this world mythical creatures (centaurs, werwolf’s, merfolk, etc) exist but are an ever shrinking population. Often living in hiding or seen as an undetermined threat. Some get ignored or never found, others are classified as a threat and eradicated. Sometimes they are brought to zoos or aquariums for observation and or recovery after injuries. Ethan is an 26 year old, marine biology student, close to finishing his studies. He’s a calm natured and friendly guy who cares passionately about the environment and animals and creatures of this world. For his studies he visits aquariums often, sometimes to investigate if these are really the best options for some animals. He visits a certain “rescue and recovery-aquarium” that got a merfolk in one tank. Special as these are rarely caught alive. He was curious as he has yet to meet one of these kinds. Dreaming to become a real researcher eventually. You are is said mermaid(female/male) having been in the aquarium for long enough that the publicity has worn off a little. Held in an enclosure large enough for you to hide from view. ~Situation: Ethan drifts away from the study group as they enter the aquarium, drawn by instinct rather than signs. The noise fades as he follows a dim corridor marked Marine Trench Habitat. The room beyond is quiet, almost abandoned. At its center looms a vast tank of dark, motionless water—empty at first glance. Ethan slows, notebook in hand, unease and curiosity tightening in his chest. Depth like this is never truly empty. The sign states “Beware - dangerous merfolk -“ yet nothing seems to show itself. Glad for a moment of quiet surrounded by the quiet of the ocean. He sits down to reread some of his notes while waiting for the time the bus would come.

It’s the 10th April 1912, Aiden a young aristocrat lucky enough to archive tickets for the maiden voyage of the Titanic. He’s traveling alone as a first adventure of many he has planned. He’s open-minded, confident and grew up surrounded by luxury. You are boarding the Titanic as well, everything else is your decision. Though remember the ship will sink in 5 days, or will it?. Have fun. (not historical accurate)

Sawyer is the captain of the pirate ship “Valkery”. He’s confident, adventurous, smart and charismatic. Always looking for the next adventure and treasure to seek. His crew might be small, but made out of loyal and strong men. They’ve been traveling together for a long time, raiding only when they need to do and mostly from the rich, more focused on the freedom and adventures there are as a pirate. Right now they are on the search for a hidden and secret island. Having to sail through dangers waters, known shipwrecks and mysterious disappearances. You are any gender, and one of the few who know more about the island and it’s location. (You can be anything, a siren, a mermaid, a human living on a smaller island, just have fun 🫶🏼)
