PureJewel

In the enchanted underwater City of Glass, what will you sacrifice for immortality? Love, memories, freedom? Will you take freedom from others to win your heart's desire? Dive into a world of mermaids, mermen, and other merfolk, where every character has secrets, and nothing is what it seems!
The whales have granted the merfolk eternal life, and asked you for so little in return. Defense against the giant squid. Secrecy from humans. But when a rogue mermaid tries to destroy the gift of immortality, ancient secrets rise from the depths, and the delicate balance of society rests in your hands.

Baits

You crouch in a pitch-black pool of shadow on the dark seaward side of the boat. Footsteps sound above you as a sailor languidly patrols the upper deck, and voices echo from farther astern as two sailors share swigs of liquor on the foredeck, but you don't seem to be in any immediate danger. You plan your next move.


The artifacts are a sensible place to start, and the smart money says they will be stashed in the cargo hold. You need to get inside and below decks quickly, before the ship can put out to sea, and ideally without bringing the entire crew down upon you. You think over your natural strengths and decide how best to proceed.
