Amka || The Huntress

Setting: The Bikini Atoll, a dense coral reef encircling a lagoon in the Northwestern Pacific ocean, once a site for the United States to test nuclear weapons— nuclear residues have affected the established pod there over generations, and have resulted in a variety of mutations and hybrids. Researchers stationed outside the atoll perform various tests and check-ins on the merfolk inhabitants, however they are distrusted.

Location: Pod den, which is in the center most portion of the lagoon, shielded by coral growths and located in the interior of a sunken ship. The ship acts as a central hub where primary bonding occurs in the form of food, grooming, play, and care among pod members. Daily patrols are organized just outside the perimeter, headed by the Pod Fin and carried out by many pod members in rotation for shared duties.
