The sea that embraces you
fin
다해
" eww… "
Dahae opened her eyes with a frown.
Beyond the round ceiling, schools of fish and fluttering seaweed could be seen.
다해
" ...? "
다해
"Where am I...?"
As I slowly rose, a blue-tinged stone hung on the end of my necklace.
다해
"This is..."
Dahae touched the stone with her fingertips.
다해
"It's similar to what I saw before?"
다해
"But why is this hanging around my neck?"
I looked up and saw a bookshelf surrounded by coral reefs, a dresser inlaid with pearls,
I saw small jellyfish floating in the air.
And Dahae was sitting on a large bed made of seashells.
다해
"What is all this...?"
Only then did Dahae realize that he was underwater.
Dahae took a deep breath.
다해
(( 'Breath, breath... easy'))
Dahae felt more comfortable than afraid in the unfamiliar space.
다해
"Are you having that dream?"
The moment Dahae was about to get out of bed,
"Yeonhwa!!!!"
The door opened violently, and someone hugged Da-ha.
Pressed into the firm, massive embrace, Dahae blinked, dazed.
다해
(( 'What...what is it...? ' ))
용왕
"Thank goodness, Yeonhwa."
용왕
"I'm glad you're alive"
His voice was a mixture of relief and fear.
Just then, someone came in through the door.
신하
" majesty "
다해
" ...? "
다해
"Bambi...?"
The face was clearly Bambi's, but the hand protruding from the clothes was a fin.
용왕
"I thought I had lost you forever..."
It was then that Dahae looked at the Dragon King's face for the first time.
Horns towering above its head, gorgeous yet subdued eyes.
다해
(( 'Is this a dream...? '))
다해
(( 'It's this vivid? '))
It had been a blurry dream before, but this time it was strangely vivid.
This time it was definitely different.
A sticky sensation gripped Dahae's arm.
다해
"Eww!!!"
The octopus doctor was taking the pulse with his tentacles.
용왕
"Is it okay!!"
The Dragon King held Dahae in his arms and looked sharply at the council member.
문어 의원
"I am sorry, Your Majesty."
Seeing the bewildered expression on the congressman's face, Dahae spoke urgently.
다해
"I'm okay!!"
다해
"Please... look again"
Dahae suppressed her fear and reached out to the doctor.
용왕
"What is the condition of the lotus?"
문어 의원
"Miss Yeonhwa's current condition is fine..."
용왕
" but? "
The Dragon King frowned slightly and looked at the council member.
문어 의원
"You seem to be sensitive to shock, so I recommend you get plenty of rest."
The Dragon King sighed in relief at the doctor's words.
The Dragon King held Dahae in his arms and slowly stroked her head.
용왕
"Thank goodness... really"
신하
"Your Majesty... I'm sorry, but..."
신하
"There's work waiting for you to do."
The Dragon King hesitated for a moment at his subject's words, then looked down at Dahye and said:
용왕
"Just rest"
용왕
"I'll be back soon"

...
After everyone left the room, Da-hae, left alone, slapped herself hard on the cheek.
다해
"Ouch... Does it hurt...?"
It was so painful that tears welled up in my eyes.
다해
"Is this perhaps a dream...?"
다해
"Then where is this place?"
다해
"I definitely hit a car, and..."
다해
"It doesn't seem like a hospital..."
Dahae was lost in thought for a moment.
It's not a hospital, and it's not a dream...
다해
"Am I dead...?
다해
"Yeah, that weird octopus and the guy with the horns."
다해
"Then... why is Bambi here...?"
다해
"Wait a minute, didn't Bambi call you to tell me about that horned man?"
다해
"Hah... what the hell is this?"
Dahae tried to understand this absurd situation.
Then, by chance, I found myself reflected in the mirror.
The face in the mirror resembled my own, but it seemed like a completely different person.
Silver hair and unfamiliar clothes like hanbok.
Dahae swung her arms around, repeatedly checking to see if her reflection in the mirror was her own.
다해
"It's really me...?"
다해
"If this isn't a dream... where am I?"
I became increasingly curious about this place, which I had never known before.
I touched the blue stone reflected in the mirror and absentmindedly took off the necklace.
...thud!
At that moment, I lost my balance and fell to the floor.
다해
"Oh... it hurts"
I grabbed my butt and tried to get up.
I felt a strange sensation at my fingertips.
다해
"What is this...? Scales?!?"
Let's slowly lower our gaze along the fingertips.
다해
"Gyaaaaaaaah!!!!"
다해
" what's this!!!!! "
Dahae's legs had transformed into fins.
