Chapter 1: Just like a fairy tail.

Entry 1:

I've decided to start keeping a journal. I have experienced things that make me wonder just what is possible anymore. I do not want to have to convince myself of what has actually happened so I will record everything I experience until I finally get used to this magical world I have ended up in. Unfortunately I was unable to acquire a journal until recently so I will have to write the past several days from memory. Also, I have finally found a good library and have a lot I would like to read up on so I will probably be keeping these brief in the hopes of catching up with the current date soon.

Day 1, part 1:
Well there is only one way I can start this so here it goes: I woke up on an island populated with monster girls. I wish I knew how I ended up here but I don't, in fact I'm fairly certain I might have suffered some short term memory loss before arriving. Not that it matters, nothing from the other world could reasonably explain how I got here. All I know is I woke up stark naked on the beach with a mermaid hovering over me. The mermaid, named Merry Lou, apparently found me unconscious at sea and brought me to the beach before the sharks or other monster girls could find me.

There have been a few moments in life where my mind was quite simply broken, once my parents offered to get me a lap dance as incentive to get me to learn to drive. But this was a completely different level. I woke up on a beach when last I remembered I was about as far inland one could get, I was completely naked for absolutely no reason, and on top of it all was a beautiful mythical creature seeing me in all my glory. I honestly had no idea where to begin. But apparently only one of my heads was confused because the next moment my "little friend" decided to come out and say hello. Why must it have a mind of its' own? I was too distracted to feel particularly aroused and yet there it was, I swear Merry being a monster girl had at least something to do with it.

Luckily Merry did not start screaming the moment she saw my man hood, a screaming girl is not something I would have been able to handle at that moment. Instead she seemed rather fascinated by it. I know mine is not small but I also know it is not on the impressive side of things either, certainly nothing to be fascinated over. I highly doubt that mine was the first she had ever seen but little else comes to mind when I try to work my mind around her fascination. But it was when she reached out to touch it that I snapped out of my daze and could begin to address my rescuer.

I quickly sat up and positioned myself so that as little of me as possible was visible before I started with the question: "How did I get here?" It was at this point that she explained how she found me already naked and unconscious not far out at sea; she did not know how I got out there. "I see" is all I could really respond with.

I fruitlessly pondered for a few minutes for anything that could at least explain how I would end up naked in the ocean, this was back when I still had hopes that mermaids were simply something previously unconfirmed in the other world. But after mumbling to myself for a little while, Merry timidly made a suggestion. "Um, perhaps you were robbed and thrown into the sea?" It would not have been an unreasonable suggestion if it were not for the fact that I lived far from the sea and never went to many places I was unfamiliar with, facts that I readily pointed out. Neither Merry nor I could come up with anything after that.

Eventually my mind grew tired of trying to explain the explainable and begin to wonder to other topics. I finally started to take note of the finer features on Merry: her long dark blue hair, her kind blue eyes, unblemished face with white skin that is a little scaly in places but it in no way hinders her appeal, and of course her tail with white scales on her underside and dark blue scales on her topside. It wasn't until this point that I fully realized that I had been saved by a mermaid and it should be obvious that I was reminded of a certain Disney movie. I found the thought amusing and it had been a little while since either of us had said anything so I decided to share it. "This kind of reminds me of a story I know; getting lost at sea to be saved by a beautiful mermaid." Is more or less what I said, I might have been too shy to say beautiful.

Regardless, Merry was delighted to say she was thinking something similar. "I know, right?! It is just like one of those stories where you find a man who is not drowned, partially eaten, or insane from consuming to much sea water." A few more details than I needed, I have to remember mermaids are mainly considered tragic creatures. "Although," she added, "humans in our stories are a little better built. Tehe." Ouch. Granted she was not wrong, as far as fairy tale looks go she has me beat by miles, but still ouch.

"My name is Merry Lou, what's your name?" The cheerful introduction made me realize that in all my confusion I had not yet thanked my savior.

"M-my name is Jonathan Adams. Thank you for saving me earlier, it is very nice to meet you." I would have shook her hand or something, but they were occupied covering something at the moment.

"So where are you from?" she asked.

"I'm from Tulsa, Oklahoma." I readily answered like I have a thousand times in my life, but this time it meant absolutely nothing. "… The center of the United States." Nada. "… In North America?" Zip. It was getting us nowhere. "How about you tell me where we are first?" I eventually asked.

"We are on the coast of the south-eastern most tip of lord Amerantes' territory." Was her answer. It was my turn to have absolutely no idea where that was.

I let out a long sigh. I had no idea of where I was and still have no idea of how I got there. I decided that I should at least attempt to make myself more comfortable before I attempt to make headway in this increasingly frustrating situation. "Do you know anywhere I could get some clothes? At least some underwear so I don't have to keep covering myself."

I can still swear I saw her hopes drop a little at that moment. I thought it might be because she didn't have any cloth, using sea shells and what I now know to be carved coral covering her ample breasts, but it turns out that was not the case. "Um, I do, but I…" She pauses for a moment to look out at the sea, I did not learn the true reason why until a little later. "… I will have to go get it."

"If it is too much trouble I could deal with something makeshift out of materials nearby." I may be spoiled as much as any person in a modern society might be, but I am reasonable enough to put up with something if asked to.

"No! No! It's no trouble at all!" She rapidly protests as she makes her way to the water. She pauses just before going in to look back at me. "Just… don't go anywhere okay? I won't be gone long." She then dived down and disappeared under the sea.

I know she told me not to go anywhere, but I needed a walk. I did not plan on going very far and walking helps me think. Knowing what I know now I can see what a bad idea it was. I do not think there is any way I could ever forget what I learned that day but I should put a memo anyway.

Do not go for a naked walk alone on this island!
