Serena's Point of View

Romaritime Harbor is a Harbor located in Belleau Region, Fontaine.

It is a large coastal elevator and observation deck built on the side of a waterfall vista that extends to an aquabus rail to the Court of Fontaine. It also provides passage to Girdle of the Sands, Sumeru.

I swam from the Liffey Region all the way to the Belleau Region. I came closer to the waterfalls that border Fontaine with it's neighboring nation, Sumeru.

Now given the fact that there's waterfalls and Romaritime Harbor is Fontaine's largest Harbor, you can only assume that it's big. You'd be correct to assume so too. I mean it has an elevator like come on now.

A look of determination on my face, I started swimming faster with my tail. I looked at where it seems like the water was ending or falling off and I swam faster and faster towards it.

Before I knew it I swam past the waterfall, out of the water and into the air. My arms were stretched and I just smiled enjoying the air on my face. On the sky I looked majestic, my siren tail and everything, the momentum I was in made me feel invincible. I took a deep breath before it felt like gravity started doing it's job again and I started to fall down.

I dolphin dived into the water at the bottom of the waterfalls, the first base area of the Harbor.
It seemed like I had gathered quite the attention from the locals as they gasped and awed. I was pretty far away but let's be real... Everyone most likely saw me swim through the waterfall and fall all the way down. I never turned into my human form either, I was in my siren form the entire time so everyone had seen me.

"Woah!!" I heard a feminine squeaky voice from underneath the water surface, "Did Paimon see that correctly? Was that a fish monster that just fell down the waterfall?" She added, I laughed from under the water.

Siren ears are quite sensitive, they can hear sound waves and they can hear sonic waves as well. Acoustic sounds are a siren specialty after all.

"Do you think it is who I think it is Lyney?" A familiar feminine voice said, I recognized it immediately. Lynette. I could hear everything they were saying from underwater, nothing escapes me right?

"Well, only she would make a Grand Entrance like that... Her and Lady Furina of course." Lyney said. He knows me all too well, I suppose. Otherwise he wouldn't have said that. Grand Entrances aren't necessary something I strive for, but they are something that adds flair to any situation.

I listened to their conversation. I know, I know, it's not very regal of me to be eavesdropping onto their conversations. But hey they don't know where I am and they don't see me either so all fair's right?

I took a look at that Traveler, he had gold hair and gold eyes. The clothing he was wearing... It didn't remind me of any of Teyvat's styles. They look like they're not even from Teyvat itself. Perhaps he's from the Dark Sea? Hmmm... No upon closer inspection I wouldn't say so.

"By the way, we were just getting ready to go the opera house to meet the Hydro Archon." The flying girl said with her squeaky tone, "Would you be able to show us the way?"

"So you're going to see Lady Furina?" Lyney asked with his arms crossed. "No problem at all. In fact, I was planning to go to the Opera House myself. I'll gladly take you once I finish things here."
