    Summary

    "So, you expect me to believe that you're actually a merman, and that you made a deal with an evil sea wizard so you could learn more about humans?"

    'Yes'

    "... Fair enough. I've heard strangest things, actually. So, would you like to, I don't know. Go sightsee? You'd probably like that, what with 'wanting to get the whole human experience' and all."
