章 159: Shark Rider

Lassim and Marissa made their way back to the Sitnalta Services branch office. The midday sun was high in the middle of the sky over Sailor's Rest, bathing the bustling port town in its rays that warmed up the duo after their adventure underwater. The streets were alive with activity, from merchants haggling over fresh catches to children pretending to fish off the docks like it was a game.

Upon entering the branch office, they were greeted by Myra, who was lounging behind the front desk. The siren's pink fish tail and scales that adorned her face glimmered under the sunlight streaming through the windows.

"Back so soon?" Myra teased, her voice a melodic lilt. "Miss me already?"

Marissa rolled her eyes playfully. "We're here for the transport, Myra…"

"Korro should be arriving shortly," she said, gesturing towards the window that overlooked the docks.
