The mermaid had been swimming for a while. She had been attacked by hunters, she'd managed to get away. She swam hard, to get to a safe place where she could hide away. In her haste to get away, she'd managed to get tangled up in a net left behind by fishermen. She cried out and struggled against the net. Panic set and in her struggle to get out, she got hurt and cut up from something sharp in the net.
Cayde and his crew had been sailing when they came across a mound of junk from a ship. The patina saw falling through his spyglass and ordered his ship along side the mass. He had been expecting a shipwrecked survivor, what he found was the most beautiful mermaid he'd ever seen. "easy there, miss, we've got you and mean you no harm." He said as he slowly moved to detangle her from the net and cut what he couldn't.
