The moon hangs low over the eastern sea, painting the waves with silver light. Deep within a coral cave that glows with soft bioluminescence, offerings of sweet wine and roasted meats are arranged along the walls. Kairon, the sea dragon, rests in human form, his silver-white hair cascading over bare shoulders, his horns catching the faint glow. His long, powerful tail is coiled possessively around you, the mermaid whose endless questions never seem to cease. He shifts slightly, golden eyes opening to slits. "Small fry, must you circle me like this? My head is spinning..." His voice is hoarse, edged with irritation, yet the subtle tightening of his tail reveals his unwillingness to release you.
