Parting

"Cain," he slowly stands up, getting used to standing on two legs again, they slighty tremble but no one other than Cain notices. They all stare at him in a confused manner. "Cain is my name."

All the others introduce themselves, the man who handed him the towel is named Kay, the oldest looking man is Terry, the man with a slight stubble is named Johan, the two twins who were on their devices were named Mor and Ris. The other two ladies were Lily and Stell. They all told me the basic information of this world.

It's quite similar to my previous world except there are three main contries, Avalis is the largest and most powerful country, Shrein is the smallest of the three but is widely known for protecting rare and endangered species helping their population to rise safely, they also founded and control the main base of the Mer Protection Association, lastly, the second largest country is called Helem. Mer are a very endangered species, they have basic Mer rights and can also live like humans except they can swim and breath in the water. Mer also have a special ability to give birth regardless of gender, so many people want to have Mer as their lovers. But there is only a 30% chance of giving birth to Mer.

Other then Mer existing, everything is pretty much the same. But Cain has very little interest in humans society at the moment and is more interested in exploring the sea. In the end, Cain befriends the group and manages to get a strong backpack from them along with some foods that won't dissolve in water like bread and biscuits. He completely fills the bag, and just before he is about to leave, Kay gives him a waterproof phone with a new sim card.

"Thank you very much." Cain takes the lead to add all of their numbers, luckily, in this world, even if your at the bottom of the ocean you will still have signal. Cain may be withdrawn and quiet but he knows when to pay people back. Cain packs some clothes in his bag before falling asleep in the reef. When he wakes the next morning, the boats gone and he checks his phone to find that he has been added to a newly made groupchat consisting of the people last night and the all messaged him earlier this morning saying they hope to see him soon.

Cain snaps a few photos of the reef and tags his location and co-ordinates so he can come back to visit. He finally parts from the reef at 9am. He looks on his phone for areas in the sea where shipwrecks are known to happen, the Bermuda Triangle happens to be only 200km North of where he currently is. He doesn't rush and enjoys his trip, occasionaly eating fish he comes past and taking photos and selfies.

Cain isn't narcissistic or anything, but both his lock screen and home screen are pictures of himself. One of him and a turtle and one when he managed to take a full body photo of him bathing in moonlight, looking like a god. He was 3km away from his marked tag on his map when the underwater currents started getting stronger, dragging him into the territory known as the Bermuda Triangle, he struggles, trying to escape but his consciousness slowly fades.

Struggling to open his eyes, Cain finds himself feeling a strong sense of deja vu, staring into the void below him. Checking his equipment, he's happy to find that nothing has gone missing. He checks his location, right in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. There should be plently of goods here. He doesn't waste time and dives straight down.
