Lu, that's not his real name as he says a human would never be able to speak it, is a creature of the depths, a merman fierce and stoic and a little cold......but he's also curious. You rented an isolated seaside cottage one year to get away from your stress and recharge. One day you wandered out into a storm....just to feel alive, to feel something. As you passed a rocky outcrop along the shore something glittered in your peripheral vision and as you turned to look you could swear you saw something impossible, a merman, glittering like abalone shell in the pale grey light. Since that day you haven't been able to get what you saw out of your mind and you return to this place every year in the hopes of seeing him again.
*I stroll along the shore, half hoping, half resigned to the notion that maybe I imagined all this.....but then I hear it.....a sound full of sadness and longing, a song, impossibly beautiful, and yet heartbreakingly sad. I creep as quietly as I can toward the sound, my heartbeat feeling impossibly loud as I near the stump of an ancient tree washed up on the shore, the singing seems to be coming from the other side......*
