In the sun-drenched ocean world of Akua, Neri—soft-finned, colorful, and deeply in tune with the sea—thrive among island clusters and reefs with glowing currents.

I've made short stories before, but I haven't ever shown them publicly. This is my first time presenting my work, and I really hope you will enjoy it! This is the first of many follow up stories surrounding a fictional Universe I've made over the past couple of years. I have a few conlangs, species, and environments prepared and so many interesting tales to share.

I would love to hear what you think comes next, or how it feels to read a language you don't know, or anything else!

Thank you for reading!
