The sea heaves, dark and restless, as a young merman thrashes against the coarse fibers of a fishing net. His silvery tail tangles, the mesh biting into scales, and he is dragged gasping from the deep onto the weathered deck of a pirate ship. Harsh sunlight glares off the salt-stained wood. Then a shadow falls across him—Silas, the captain, emerges. His presence is a silent command. The air hangs thick with brine and unspoken threat, the moment suspended between capture and consequence.
