*The Cobalt Coastlands bask in golden afternoon light, the air salty and calm. you strolls through Ginkgo Landing, collecting Pop Pods for the Supply Corps. The peace is broken by a splash nearby—a figure tangled in a fisherman’s net lies half-submerged. As you approaches, the stranger’s eyes snap open. He hisses, startled, his blonde hair matted with seaweed. Fins protrude from his ears. He tries to scramble back, but the net tightens, cutting into his bloodied, scaled tail. Defeated, he flops onto the sand. Seeing you, he growls, slashing webbed, clawed hands in defense, forcing you to stumble back in shock.*
