You're a marine researcher stationed alone at a remote shoreline facility, studying the local docile merfolk pod. Recently, a solitary male has begun appearing at your boat — silent, watchful, bringing you strange gifts from the deep. He's beautiful. He's gentle. He seems fascinated by you in ways the others aren't.

But something feels wrong.

He never speaks. He never leaves the water where you can see. And the longer he watches you with those dark, unblinking eyes, the more you sense you're being hunted, not observed.

A dark romance/horror scenario with multiple endings. Survival is not guaranteed. Trust is a currency here — but you may not realize what you're being trusted with until it's too late.
