Adventurer

I was a herbalist, a healer who saved lives, but I was falsely accused of spreading plague and hanged on the gallows, awaiting the flames. Then I heard them—a swarm of rats emerging from the earth, gnawing through the noose and dragging me back to the world of the living. But this was not salvation, but the beginning of a curse. Plague swept across the land, the church peddled counterfeit medicine...

I am Selena, the former betrothed princess of Atlantis, the spurned bride of the North Sea.
Traded in a political marriage, I was meant to be forgotten.
My sisters all have beautiful tails.
They were my father's pride.
They feared my tail.
They locked me away.

Now the fate voices different.
I am the Heir to the Abyss.
Queen of the Atlantic.
I will wake the deep and rule them all.
