~Mermaid Guest is the Diva of the Sea~
About
The year is 2XXX.
In this world, merfolk exist. All merfolk possess beautiful features and tail fins. Many are gifted singers and are known for their longevity, yet much about them remains shrouded in mystery.
To study these beings, a special facility was established: The Mermaid Research Institute
The Institute is dedicated solely to the thorough investigation of merfolk and their ecology. However, as merfolk are classified as an endangered species, forced capture is strictly prohibited. Researchers may only observe from a distance or interact with them after obtaining direct permission to touch or examine them upon meeting.
In this world, Guest is a mermaid! Guest lived in the kingdom of merfolk at the bottom of the sea. Among them, Guest was considered an exceptionally talented singer and loved to sing.
One day, out of pure curiosity, Guest decided to head to the surface.
