Scale of the Sea (Aka g/t SEA PUPPIES)

A girl wakes up on an island with nothing more than a dagger, a fuzzy memory of how she got there, and a giant merman to keep her company. Does that confuse you? Now you have an idea of how it feels to be her.

Some say the sea, as timeless as it is powerful, holds the story of all who have come before you.
For some, it holds the answers to the past.
For them, it held the door to the future.
If you asked our not-so-heros, they'd probably tell you it was more of a violent yank into a rabbit hole no sane person would prefer to travel on
...it's a complicated relationship. But hey, it makes a hell of a good story.
