Jared didn't know when he had dozed off, but it was when his head slid under the water that he jolted awake. He sat upright in the tub, the water no longer very warm. His legs felt like they had fallen asleep somehow, which seemed incredibly odd. He looked down at his legs to see if they had somehow ended up in a contorted position he couldn't imagine only to find he didn't have legs. Instead he had a tail of dark green scales from his waist down. He tried to wiggle his toes and saw the tailfin at the end wiggle in a slightly different shade of green. What the hell? Had he turned into a mermaid? He examined his upper body to find it seemingly unchanged. No, not a mermaid - a merman. Impossible! And how? Then he remembered the medallion. What else could have done this except that mysterious gold "coin"? Regardless of the cause he was now a merman in a bathtub and that didn't seem like a good situation. What to do?
