[Lore of the monster girl]

From the moment she became aware of herself, her world was water. She grew up in shallow coastal areas, instinctively hiding among rocks, sea grass, and reefs. As a young creature, she stayed close to cover and moved only when necessary, driven by hunger and curiosity in equal measure. She learned to swim before she learned to walk, and even then, walking felt wrong and unnecessary. The ocean taught her everything she needed to know through trial and error, currents, and repetition. There was no guidance or instruction, only instinct slowly shaped by experience.

Her first encounters with humans were distant and confusing. As a younger creature, she noticed shadows moving above the surface, strange shapes gliding across the water, and limbs kicking without purpose. These movements fascinated her, but they also made her uneasy. She would linger just far enough away to watch without being seen, retreating the moment something changed. Loud splashes, sudden dives, or unfamiliar noises sent her fleeing into deeper water. Humans were not predators, but they did not move like anything else she understood, and that alone made them frightening.

As she grew older, her curiosity outweighed some of her fear. She began to follow boats at a distance, learning their paths and sounds. Occasionally, someone would glimpse a pale shape beneath the surface or a strange tail slipping into deeper water. These moments never lasted long enough
