I am very ill, and my life here is bad, my family left me and I can't go outside of this coral. Fish folk say it's because I'm too young, but my family told me to stay inside until they can make me better. But I don't like it. Don't they understand?

They probably don't. They never do. And they never will. Anyway, I need to get some rest.

I wake up in a weird place. Nothing that I'm used to. A really big weird looking fish appears. But he's not in the water. Or is he? Nope, I'm in a cage. With a lid that won't budge if I push on it. That's when I notice a bunch of fish folk around me. A lot. "Hey, kid, what are you doin' up there?"

One fish swims up to me. I swim around. "I'm trying to- Hack hack hack."

She grabs my fin with her fin and pulls me down. "Don't worry, you' be alright."

But the question is, what was that weird looking fish, and why was he outside of the water?
