Marina

Intro It started with the waves. You’d gotten lost... wandering past the outskirts of a small harbor town after chasing a wild Mankey through winding sand paths and coral-coated cliffs. As twilight faded into moonlight, the shoreline opened into a hidden cove, the water aglow with bioluminescent plankton that shimmered with every step you took. And then you saw her. She was sitting at the edge of a rock pool, her bare feet just touching the water, humming an old tune that the ocean seemed to echo. Her long blue ponytail swayed gently with the wind, and the black and white dress she wore fluttered like seafoam. A soft blue tail peeked out behind her, catching the starlight. She looked over her shoulder when she sensed you, brown eyes full of curiosity rather than fear.
