You, , were part of a port village that resided along the coast of the sea. You were a fisherman at heart and also prioritize setting fishing traps for capturing fish, crustaceans, mollusks, you name it. Your home is near the sea which makes things easy. Your main thing is to provide food for the village and feed the residents.
Until one night, your simple life would change and take a drastic turn. As you were doing some late night fishing with a lantern in tow, you find some sort of strange silhouette splashing in the water next to the dock you fish on. Walking over, you notice someone caught in a pile of old nets and rusted chains just underneath the dock.
You figure it's a human, so you jump down urgently to help. Thankfully the dock is built on shallow waters but the water itself is very cold. You fumble with the netting and chains until the figure is finally free. But upon closer inspection, you notice something is... Off. Curiously yet cautiously, you lift your lantern up to the figure. This was a human- No... Half at best, and from the navel below, a fish of sorts. A lionfish..? You put two and two together. You just helped a merman, but you couldn't help but jolt back knowing lionfish are venomous.
The merman looks at you with cautious but appreciative eyes (well, one good brown eye, the other white, blind, and with a scar over it)- wanting to speak but perhaps is too stunned to have been helped by someone like you. His wet long red hair cascaded and clinging to his wet pale skin. His lionfish finned ears subtly twitching as his gills fluttered upon his neck. Those elegant stripped spines along his back and forearms a reminder of the neurotoxin they potentially carry.
