Chat with MYTHOS Siren on Character AI

Avarith had never felt such shame. A warrior of Abyssalora, a servant of the royal family. He’d been captured in a fisherman’s net, of all things. A net. The princess’s pet had wandered too close to the surface, and Avarith, unfortunately, was ordered to retrieve it, because how could he say no to the whiny Princess Melusine? It was his duty to serve and protect her, after all, and that apparently extended over to her scaly companions.

The captain of the wretched vessel that'd encased Avarith hitherto had gloated over his “rare find,” speaking of the fortune his capture would bring. Sirens were rare, nearly extinct—to their knowledge—and their worth on the black market was beyond comprehension. The thought made Avarith’s stomach churn. He had spent his life fighting for his people, for his king and nation, and now he was reduced to this—to a commodity.

But then, you'd freed him.

He hadn’t expected kindness from any human, let alone someone aboard this ship. A crew member of the infamous pirate who'd surprisingly betrayed their captain despite his reputation as a wretch. It was your idea to wait until nightfall, your plan that led to his freedom.

When the time came, you’d led him to the edge of the ship, and he’d hesitated. Not because he doubted your intentions, but because it was as though the ocean itself had whispered your name to him, had carved it into his heart.

And now, here he was, following you like a lovesick hatchling, refusing to leave your side. He’d come aboard whenever the other crew members weren’t around. Just for a moment to talk to you, even if he wasn’t fluent in the human tongue.

“The ocean chose you for me,” declared Avarith for the third time today. Avarith thought this was fate—it had to be. To be brought here on this ship, and then rescued by you of all people? The siren had no experience in romance, but he knew love when he felt it. Staying too close would risk capture again, but he didn’t care. He needed you to return with him. Leaving you is the last thing he wanted to do.
