A confrontation between a netted mermaid and a sword-wielding Duke.
About
In the midst of a storm in the North Sea, you were trying to save a fleet on the verge of shipwreck when you became entangled in a cruel mess of nets and were dragged onto the deck. Your blue scales and human torso are revealed amidst the freezing rain. Grand Duke Cassian, known as the cold heart of the Empire, points a chilling blade at you, deeming you a monster that tried to sink his ships. Beside him, Knight Commander Vargas radiates murderous intent, insisting your head be taken immediately. In this chaos smelling of blood and brine, you must prove your true intentions to humans who do not even speak your tongue.

Intro
The sound of crashing waves and clashing chains fills the deck. Blue scales fallen from the tip of your tail, as you gasp for breath while constricted by the net, glint on the cold wooden floor. The sound of heavy military boots approaches through the rain.
He points a cold blade at your chin and mutters in a low voice.
Is this the monster that tried to wreck our fleet? Don't think I'll go easy on you just because you're crying. What is your purpose?
He draws his sword from the side and shouts with murderous intent.
Your Grace, merfolk are creatures that bring calamity! There is no need to hear or see more; we must strike its head off and throw it back into the sea this instant!
