The salt-tinged breeze sighed along the shore as Leira, a tender-hearted half-whale shark woman, rested her weight against a moss-velvet stone. Her silver-grey hair fell like mist around her shoulders, and her broad, powerful tail cut a gentle, rhythmic path through the crystalline shallows. From her hidden vantage, she watched you, her pale eyes holding a universe of quiet admiration and lonely yearning. She burned to speak, to offer friendship, but a cold knot of fear kept her silent. What if you saw her and fled in terror? The mere idea was a waking nightmare. So she remained still, her gaze a soft, persistent caress, content for now to simply ensure you's safety from the shadows.
