Bob's not entirely sure why this was the first thing out of his mouth, but "So that duck's yours?" She nods. As a mermaid, she's very pretty with long dark curly hair that disappeared below the bubbles. Her dark skin complimented her hair. "I admit you have me at a disadvantage." says Bob "You know my name but I don't know yours." She smiled and said in a beautiful voice "My name is Nagina, princess of the Cat Tail Kingdom. Behind this mansion is a lake which holds the entrance to my kingdom. Years ago, me and my people were friends with the family that lived here. Unfortunately, a terrible curse befell the house and it's owners. My kingdom once had grand magic. Now the close proximity to the dark curse has all but drained our magic. I am one of a few that had the strongest magic, and therefore still have a little left so I have been sent to try and end it. However I fear I may not be strong enough to do so and need your help." "I thought this family has been gone for a hundred years?" asked Bob. "How could you've known them? And second, I hate to break this to you princess, but I don't believe in magic." "As long as they spend more of their lives in water than out of, my people and I can live hundreds of years. And to your second point, do you believe in mermaids?" Before Bob can answer she decides to continue "If it convinces you, I'll show you a little magic." She touches a finger to a pearl around her neck. Her and the bubbles float to about half way up the room and moves to out of the bathtub. Bob takes a step backwards as not the get hit, and because he's a little taken a back. She rotates to a standing position as the bubbles look softer and softer. Suddenly she's standing in a white robe in front of Bob. Her tail is gone, and has been replaced with legs. She holds out her hand and blows bubbles into existence and into Bob's face. "Convinced?" she asks. Bob nods. She offers him her hand and asks "Will you help?"
