Merturned Chapter 31 A Bittersweet Visit
Chapter 31 A Bittersweet Visit In the prison chamber, Bryan and Joe find themselves engrossed in an intense game of aquatic chess with Trent and another merman. The pieces glide through the water as each player strategizes their moves. Trent leans back, a sly grin spreading across his face, and announces, "Checkmate!" Bryan groans playfully, realizing he's been outmaneuvered once again. Amidst their friendly banter, a guard approaches their table, signing to Joe and then to Bryan. The guard's message is succinct: "Joe, Bryan, visitors." The words instantly grab their attention, knowing that they have important guests waiting for them. They exchange excited glances, their anticipation growing. Joe quickly signs to the guard, "We'll catch our breath in the air garden." The guard nods in understanding, allowing them a moment to prepare. Sensing their urgency, Joe and Bryan swim swiftly towards the air garden, their hearts pounding with a mixture of nerves and excitement. Reac
Merturned Chapter 32: Finrir The Bard pt 1
Chapter 32: Finrir The Bard pt 1Tritan carefully guided Finrir towards the cage, allowing Joe and Bryan to observe the unique appearance of Finrir's two tone tail. Finrir's front was adorned in a pristine white shade, beautifully contrasting with the fan-like pattern of black along the back of his tail, reminiscent of the majestic orcas that roamed the ocean. Even his dorsal fin bore a stri resemblance to that of an orca, exuding power and grace. As Finrir took in the design of the prison, his keen eyes scanned the surroundings, absorbing every detail. He turned to Tritan and signed, "Your prison system also seems kinder than ours," his tone tinged with curiosity and intrigue. Tritan nodded in acknowledgment before diverting Finrir's attention to the mermen within the confines of the cage. Tritan introduced Finrir to Joe and Bryan, his expression filled with pride and familiarity. "This is Finrir, he is my cousin. You might have heard about his pod from Nerissa," Tritan signed,

Chapter 33 Finrir The Bard pt 2 "The light that filters through the water is distorted by the obstructing mass, casting an eerie and unsettling ambiance," Finrir explains, his tone reflecting a blend of weariness and determination. "Emerging from the depths, we are greeted by a sight that leaves us disheartened and disgusted." As Finrir speaks of the surface, his expression carries a hint of dismay, his eyes mirroring the disappointment and frustration he experiences firsthand. He paints a vivid picture with his words, describing what he sees with exaggerated signs to convey the depth of the situation. "The vast expanse of water is obscured by a nauseating mass of garbage and debris. The putrid smell permeates the air." "Surrounded by this repulsive garbage patch, we catch our breath, desperately see respite from the polluted waters," Finrir continues, his expression laced with a mix of determination and resilience. "We know we cannot rest here for long, as the contaminated w

Chapter 34 Idea For A Cure.In the dimly lit cell, Joe and Bryan sat side by side, their minds consumed with finding a solution for the afflicted pod. Their signs filled the confined space as they discussed possible cures, their former human knowledge and Bryan's background as a marine biologist guiding their conversation.Joe leaned forward, his brows furrowed in concentration. "Bryan, we need to think outside the box. We can't rely on human medicine here. We have to consider options that are available to us in the ocean."Bryan nodded, his eyes scanning their surroundings as if searching for inspiration. "You're right, Joe. We have a vast ocean at our disposal, and we need to tap into its resources. Let's brainstorm. What are some potential remedies we could explore?"Joe rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Well, I remember reading about the healing properties of certain sea creatures. Some produce substances that have antibacteri

Chapter 35 Naida’s Still In Tritania 8 Months After ArrivingNaida gracefully swims into the healing cove, her curious gaze drawn to the line of merfolk, each holding containers filled with various remedies. The containers vary in appearance, some creatively crafted from upcycled materials, while others showcase the artistry of merfolk using shells and seaweed. As she approaches, she notices the aquamarine mermaid behind the reception desk, diligently examining each person's list of ingredients accompanying their remedy.The receptionist, with her shimmering tail, ensures that only those with comprehensive ingredient lists are allowed to proceed.

Chapter 36 Naida Pushes Past TraumaThe next morning, Naida gracefully swims towards the grand palace, her heart filled with anticipation. As she approaches, she is confronted by the guards, their tridents forming a barrier in her path. Naida comes to a graceful stop, her hands swiftly moving in Aquasign.She signs, "I'm friends with the princesses, Princess Nerissa and Princess Madissa. I would like to visit them, please."The guards exchange glances, silently communicating with each other. Then, one of them opens the palace door and signals to someone inside. Moments later, a mermaid with a deep teal tail emerges from the doorway. She signs to Naida with a welcoming smile."Princess Madissa is currently away, but Princess Nerissa is here. Follow me, and I'll bring her to you," the mermaid signs.Naida nods gratefully and follows the mermaid, her eyes widening in awe as they swim through the corridors adorned with intricate coral fixtures on the walls. The palace emanates an aura of r
Merturned Chapter 37 Naida Finally Delivers Her Message
Chapter 37 Naida Finally Delivers Her MessageNaida, noticing Bryan's signs, quickly taps Nerissa's shoulder to get her attention and signs to her. "Oh, that's right! I just remembered what I came to tell you about. Before I left home, there were travelers talking about a kingdom on the other side of the Aqualearia called Burminia. They are known for their amazing healing abilities. I wanted to suggest that you see if your parents would consider sending an envoy to seek their help. From what I heard, it is in warmer waters just on the other side of the Atlantic. It's a long way from my home but not too far from here, only a few weeks' journey."Nerissa nods with wide eyes as a plan begins to form in her mind. She signs to Bryan, seeking more information. "Does that sound like where this Caribbean Sea Whip grows?"Bryan furrows his brow as he ponders and signs thoughtfully, "It sounds about right, but I would need to see a map that includes both this kingdom and Burminia to be certain.
Merturned Chapter 38 Can You Get A Map?
Chapter 38 Can You Get A Map?On the training grounds, Tritan and Finrir engage in a challenging sparring session, their swords slicing through the water with precision. Finrir, determined to teach Tritan the art of swordplay underwater, guides him through the intricate movements. However, their training is interrupted as Nerissa clicks and waves to catch their attention.Finrir immediately senses the urgency in Nerissa's expression and grants Tritan a break from their spar. Tritan, concerned, signs to his sister, "What's wrong, Nerissa?"Nerissa's determination shines through as she presses her lips together and signs with conviction, "I think I have a plan, but it may take some time. First, I need a map of Aqualearia, and I need you to bring it to our lunch meeting. Madissa and Naida will be there too. I'll explain everything then. Can you get a map?"Tritan nods resolutely and signs, "Of course, I can. Finrir will be there too." Nerissa beams with joy, knowing Tritan's unwavering s

Merturned Chapter 114 More Secrets.
Chapter 114 More Secrets.It dawned on her that they might not fully understand the significance of the special dish she had prepared for them earlier. In her culture, this dish was traditionally made for groom-pair to eat at the wedding feast. By accepting and eating the dish, the groom-pair would be acknowledging the bride as their mate. In a legal sense, they were already mated temporarily for a year, during which the pod would determine if they were a good fit. They had the option to recommit permanently at the end of the year, or if a child was born or conceived during that time, the mating would become legally binding when the child was born.However, given their short time together, Aziza wasn't sure if Trent and Hunter, her bonded mermen, would still feel the same about her later. She knew they were both honorable and would take care of her if a child was born, but she didn't want them to feel obligated. So she thought perhaps it best if they used
Merturned Chapter 113 Last Night In Luxury
Chapter 113 Last Night In LuxuryWith the old weight unhooked and pushed aside, Trent grasped the metal cords anchoring the air bladder to the weight and began to lift. The two counterweights were supposed to balance each other, ensuring buoyancy while underwater. However, it seemed a little heavy, and he planned to discuss this with Tritan later to get his input on the matter. Despite that, Trent knew his work was done for now."Good! Because I saved you dinner. Everyone else already ate, and I told them you were busy," Hunter informed Trent through their bondlink. "Aziza and I are waiting for you."As he prepared to head back, Hunter's message reached him through their bondlink. Trent smiled at the thoughtfulness of his bondmate and thanked him. Feeling a renewed eagerness, he swiftly swam back to The Serpent's Blood inn, where Aziza awaited them.Trent's heart warmed at the gesture and the camaraderie he shared with his companion
Merturned Chapter 112 Air, A Commodity
Chapter 112 Air, A Commodity Later, Trent finds himself entering the black market alone, heading towards the specific shop where they inquired about a restricted item the previous day. The merchant, known for dealing in new Atlantian military-restricted items, had mentioned that he had what they were looking for, but it wasn't kept in the shop. Trent navigates the hidden and unsavory place, a black market that can provide anything you need, even if it's hard to find elsewhere. However, what sets this black market apart from others and puts Trent at ease is the absence of one despicable thing he couldn't stand witnessing – slavery. There's no hint of such terrible activity here, which allows Trent to focus on his mission without worry.As Trent reaches the end of the hallway, he turns left into the shop he seeks. Inside, the shelves are filled with crates containing various weapons, including lazerarms, light spears, crystal induction daggers, and other items restr
Merturned Chapter 111 Last Day To Relax
Chapter 111 Last Day To RelaxAs the bright white waylights illuminated the underwater city of Watch Point, the group gathered at the little eatery near the statue. Markous and Lucious hovered in the line to get food, while Marine kept the table clear, waiting for the rest of the group. Soon, the whole group arrived, and they all sat at the table to eat. Tritan briefly explained that they would be leaving the morning after next, having to wait one more day for the custom sword to be made.After enjoying their meal and engaging in pleasant conversation, Bryan leaned forward and addressed the group, "I've already found the perfect place to get the rest of our provisions. There's a reputable merchant named Fintar, not far from here, who specializes in supplying adventurers like us with high-quality gear and tools for underwater journeys."The group's eyes lit up with interest, and Joe nodded in approval. "That sounds great, Bryan. Lead the way, and we'll follow you to Fintar's shop," he
Merturned Chapter 110 The Forge
Chapter 110 The ForgeAs Tritan, Finrir, and Naida approached the end of the alley, they were met with a sight that captured their attention—a large shop with no front wall, only a bar-like counter stretching from one end to the other, leaving the interior visible and open. Beyond the counter lay a bustling work area where four skilled mermen were diligently crafting their creations around a central wall. The wall, not perfectly round but built around a natural formation, exuded an aura of rugged elegance. It extended around the back like an irregular well, with the mermen moving gracefully amidst their craft, adding an artistic touch to the workshop's ambiance.Two windows were meticulously cut into the wall, and each window's sill extended out a foot, supported by a large anvil stone. This unique design left a square foot area with high sides around each window, which then rose and joined in an arch at the top, forming a tunnel-like extension that stretched out a foot, also supporte
Merturned Chapter 109 The Arms Ally
Chapter 109 The Arms Alley Finrir swims around the circular market, his eyes carefully scanning each alley until they finally lock onto something of interest down the alley directly behind a grand statue standing tall in the center of the market. Eager to share his discovery, he swiftly swims back to Tritan and signs, "I found it, it's this way."Tritan can't help but grin playfully, his curiosity piqued by Finrir's excitement. Naida's eyes also light up with anticipation as they both join in the chase, following Finrir through the bustling market. With each stroke, they navigate the narrow alleyways, passing by various stalls offering an array of goods, ranging from colorful trinkets to delectable underwater delicacies.Finrir leads them down the alley, never pausing for a moment, while Tritan and Naida eagerly keep up the pace. They pass a series of weapon shops along the way, each displaying the usual assortment of tridents, spears, harpoons, and sleek metal armor. Tritan briefly
Merturned Chapter 108 The Black Market
Chapter 108 The Black MarketElsewhere in the market, Trent and Hunter, the latter still with one eye bandaged from his recent injury, stealthily navigate a dark and secluded alley. The row of stalls and shops surrounding them appear closed or abandoned, concealing the pathway leading to their destination. Trent's senses are heightened, and he can't help but feel the weight of anticipation in the air. His parents' unscrupulous teachings have honed his ability to locate the secretive black markets hidden in the most obscure corners of any realm.As they venture further into the dimly lit alley, Trent and Hunter rely on instinct, guided by Trent's uncanny knowledge of finding these covert hubs. The absence of illumination, the hushed silence, and the shadows looming around them all add to the enigmatic allure of this clandestine place. Trent remains vigilant, feeling the gaze of unseen eyes upon him, but he remains composed, knowing that the right sigil can lead them
Merturned Chapter 107 The Sonoclam
Chapter 107 The SonoclamSwimming up to Nerissa, he peered over her shoulder as the merchant signed to her. She held a delicate metal clam in her hand, and Joe could see a crystal bead inside, nestled like a pearl in a real clam. To his surprise, as Nerissa opened the clamshell, he noticed an intricate holographic screen inside the top shell. She deftly interacted with the holographic display, leaving Joe in awe. He had no idea that merfolk possessed such advanced technology.The presence of the honeycomb-shaped piece and the tiny node on the other wall now made sense. Just above the holographic screen, near the top of the clamshell, there was a honeycomb piece similar to the ones he had seen earlier. A matching smaller piece, fitting into the center of the honeycomb, was attached to the bottom shell. The arrangement resembled a flip-phone, with the two glass-coated metal pieces functioning as a speaker and microphone.As Joe scrutinized the device, he cou

Chapter 106 Watch Point’s Market.The next morning, as the first rays of dawn gently touched Aqualeara, the group emerged from their rooms, feeling refreshed and ready for a new day of exploration. Aziza sat gracefully at the bar, her tail swaying softly as she engrossed herself in a captivating book, waiting patiently for her companions to join her. The inn's airgarden provided a tranquil start to their morning, allowing them a few peaceful moments to collect their thoughts before they embarked on their adventure.With their spirits lifted and stomachs content from a hearty breakfast, they set off for the market, the heart of Watch Point. As they approached, the sight that unfolded before them was nothing short of awe-inspiring. The enormous statue of the Guardian of Virtue stood majestically at the center, a testament to the village's values and beliefs. The smaller-than-life-size sea serpent coiled gracefully in a magnificent mound, its head rising up in a protective stance, and it
