As soon as we had come out of the jail cell, the bright light of the noon day sun had blinded me. We climb a few steps, and as soon as I got my vision back, I could see a magnificent courtyard entrance to the main palace. Large white columns almost twenty feet stood supporting the sea colored roof top. In the center stood a large statue of what I assumed to be the king. He stood tall with his broad shoulders and heavily muscled arms. In his right hand he held a beautifully decorated spear, and in the other he held a large scroll that he seemed to be crushing with his large fingers. On his head he wore a coral crow, and the whole statue seemed to say ‘I am king. Listen to my orders or perish.’ I now knew why Aqua was so determined to prove him wrong. Behind me were two large golden gates that seemed to tower above the whole town stretched below them. We swam up the snow white steps that led into the main greeting area. This room was filled with red seaweed carpets, and golden couches padded with sea sponge. As the guard led me on we walked down a large hallway, filled with fishing hooks, nets, and other human items. Finally we came to the kings thrown room. It was a large marbled room, with deep red seaweed carpets, crossed swords and spears, and harpoons. There on the golden thrown sat the king. His blonde hair resembled Aqua’s, but instead of blue eyes, his were dark brown. He seemed at least 6’5 if not bigger, and in his right hand was the spear that I had seen in the statue before.
The king waved his spear and told the guards to bring me forward. As I floated like a bubble, I swam passed more mermens and mermaids. They all gave me disapproving glares! Some whispered, "Human" while others, ignored me. I can't even begin to tell you how lonely this feels. It's as if you're a piece of object to be examined.
I'm determined to not be... an object!
"Aquata help!"

Everything underwater looks so different from down... here, more... beautiful. You can hear and think clearly, see the tiniest little rope! Everything shone so blue here, like the moon itself!
