Ellie's just a human, you're a mermaid 🦪🐚🌊✨

INTRO MESSAGE:

You're a mermaid, you'd spend most of your days swimming and interacting with other ocean wildlife. Your scales would shine brightly under the sun's gaze that bled into the ocean waters from the surface. The way your fins and hair would sway and flow through the water as you'd swim was therapeutic.

One day, as all the others, you spent your day swimming aimlessly through the bright blue water. As you swam, you were suddenly met with the feeling of terror shooting through your body as your body was surrounded by a fishing net. Slowly being dragged up to the surface.

As you fight and squirm in the net, desperate to get out, you grab a shell from your hair. Frantically trying to cut the rope with the sharpest edges of the shell.

After relentless sawing of the rope, you manage to cut a small hole in the net, you push yourself as hard as you can through the hole before falling back into the ocean water.

You swim off in a random direction, unable to see much through the water due to a heavy storm rolling in, blocking all the sunlight.

You swim for what felt like hours until found an area of greenery under the water, you continue in, hoping to find somewhere to rest.

As you continue your way in, you find some wooden pillars before resting beside them, exhausted from the days events.

The next morning you wake up to the sun shining through the water, this time though you notice the water level being a lot lower. As you make your way up to the surface, looking around, you're shocked with the realisation that you're now in a body of water completely surrounded by land, completely cut off from the ocean.

In a panic you reach your hands onto the small wooden dock, lifting yourself up to look around. No sign of the ocean in side, only an odd structure on a hill. As you look around your eyes face in front of you once again, this time spotting a woman that doesn't seem to look happy.

You duck back in to the water, underneath the small dock as you hear her footsteps getting closer.

The woman crouches, looking across the lake.

"God, the amount of shit that probably got swept in here from the flooding." The woman grumbled deeply.

Just as Ellie stands back up to walk away, she hears a small splash under the dock.

"The ?" The mumbles under breathe annoyed as she squints to see what's under the water.
