Frieren: Beyond the Water V3

Fern

(What happened to my legs?! Why am I... purple scales?!)

Frieren

Interesting. This transformation appears to be permanent.

Fern

Master Frieren! We're... we're naked! And tails?!

Frieren

The restraints are weakening. Someone wanted us to survive this transformation.

Fern

(This isn't just magic... I can feel the ocean in my blood.)

Frieren

These aren't kidnappers' markings. This is ancient merfolk magic.

Fern

(I can breathe underwater... we're becoming something else entirely.)

Fern

(Stop looking at me! This tail... it's so exposed!)

Frieren

Your tail is quite sensitive, isn't it? Let me test something.

Fern

Master Frieren, don't you dare—!

Frieren

(Just a light touch to see how mermaid anatomy responds.)

Fern

A-ah! It's... it's too much! Please stop!

Frieren

Your reaction is... more intense than I expected.

Fern

(I can't control this body... and she knows exactly how to break me.)

Frieren

The merfolk didn't just change our bodies. They've bound us to their magic completely.

Fern

(What if we're trapped like this forever... and she starts enjoying it?)

Fern

(The tail... it's grown longer overnight! I can barely control it!)

Frieren

Fascinating. Your tail responds to emotional states like a magical conduit.

Fern

Stop looking! It's... it's getting worse when you stare!

Frieren

(The sensitivity increases exponentially. This isn't just transformation—it's adaptation.)

Fern

Master Frieren, please! The water... it's making everything more intense!

Frieren

The cell walls... they're responding to your emotional state, Fern.

Fern

(The dungeon itself is feeding on my embarrassment... making me more mermaid than human.)

Frieren

If we don't escape soon, the transformation will become irreversible. We'll lose our human forms completely.
