The man from the sea and the lady from the sky

written 'in character' by mallegra for online roleplaying game castle marrach

There was a man who came from the sea and he could tell in the morning when he woke up one time that something was different because he felt it in the water that the water was different feeling and up in the sky there was a lady who was flying who could tell that it was different too and the thing that was different didn’t make a whole lot of sense to them you’d better believe it "It is like the rain is falling backwards

from the ocean to the sky" she said to her friend who was a really big bird and he didn’t say anything back because of how he was a bird but he thought that it was a really silly thing to say but in the sea the man who came out of the sea was saying to a fish "It is like the sky is reflecting the sea today and not the other way around" and the fish did not say anything back but he did

not really know what the man was saying and it was for two reasons and one of them was that he was a fish that did not know language and the second thing was that things were only different for the ocean man and the sky lady and they both decided that they had to go up or down (the man goes up to be on earth and the lady goes down from the sky) and they both went onto an island but this is a

story about Love At First Sight or The Moment Known so it has to be a bit longer before they sight each other or know about the love you’d better believe it so it is a romance story where they do not go on the same part of the island straight away because they have to find each other so she lands in the forest on the island and he washes up on the sand which is like little grains like what you have in an

hourglass and he was very tired from swimming so lay down with his breath going in and out of his face and a girl who is not the sky girl but a different girl came up to check on his breathing to see if he was just having some sleep or if he was in danger and the girl saw how he was still breathing so she tucked him in with some seaweed but then he opened his eyes and she said "Hello are you okay"

and the man said "No" so the girl took him to her house where she lived on the island and made him some good food to eat and said that the man could stay as long as he wanted to and I forgot to say that he can travel in time so please remember that for later and the lady from the sky was walking around the forest while this was happening and she had wings I think and they kept catching all on thorns and ripping up and she made a home out of some very big leaves that she put up

like a tent and she lived all on her own for some days until the man from out of the sea walked near to wear she was living and she heard him walking around and crashing into things because he was not very good at walking on ground because of how he swimmed around for all the rest of his life and she came out of her tent leaf house and was so pretty that he got very shy and couldn’t say anything to her and

she said "Hello? Hello? Hello?" lots of times and did not know why he just stood there becoming more and more red so she turned red too but it was not from being shy it was from being angry because of how he was not talking and she walked away from there even though it was where she was living and the man from the water got very sad and the lady from the sky got very mad and the reason the man was so sad

was because when the lady had said Hello hello hello he had fallen in love with her straight away and she didn’t even know so he went to the edge of the water and thought he might jump into it and be friends with all of the fish again but then he remembered how he had been down in the water living his normal life when something had pushed him up onto the land and he thought it was the lady and maybe that he was

meant to marry her so he turned around and went back to her leaf home but she wasn’t there and he cried and his tears coming out of his eyes were warm and tasted like sea water but he would not like it if you ate them and I don’t think you are meant to eat sea water or salt because someone told me not to eat a lot of warm salt so you should leave his wet face alone and let him cry because of

how he is not real anyway because this is just a story and he has stopped crying now in the story and he looked for the home of the girl who had made him some food and tucked him in seaweed and when he found her house the girl from the sky was inside of it and she was eating the girl’s food and the sea man got sadder because what if the lady and the girl fell in love with each other and nobody fell

in love with him but he decided to be brave so he opened the door and went in the house and he said “Hello” to the sky lady and the sky lady smiled and her smile was not as bright as the sun or snow or other sky things are bright but she was very happy and then he was very happy too and he said even more words and what he said was "Will you please marry me you are very beautiful" and she said

"Yes" because when he had said hello she had fallen in love with him too even though he was not as strong or big as the ocean but he was still a little bit strong and big and it was not love at first sight but it was love at first sound maybe you could call it that and they hugged the girl and got married on the island and they said that they would be in love in the sky or on the ground or in

the sea and they were in love and they lived together for a lot of years but then the man from the sea said to the girl from the sky do you remember children and the lady said I did but I had forgotten which is very strange because they are so nice and the man said where I am from there is a baby but I’m from a different place in time which is maybe why and the girl said can you take me there

and the man said no but he also said I have to go back now even though I can’t take you there because of how I travel around in time and they were both very sad and he went away and the lady put her hand on her belly and she understood that she was going to have a baby and then when she had a baby she realised it was a little version of the man as a baby and she loved him very much and it was still true

love even though she was his mama and when he grew up he said "Hello" again but did not know who she was or remember her and she knew that she had to go and put him into the sea so he could grew up with the fish and come and visit her in the past and they could fall in love again so she threw her baby into the water and the baby drowned and that is the end you’d better believe it.
