Description

199X, the Atlantic Ocean---

Tragedy befell our honeymoon.
Our ocean cruiser sailed into a storm. We were shipwrecked by someone with an arm bearing a lightning-like birthmark.
My wife and I woke up on a paradise island.
Thinking we survived the worst we began a new life, only for my dear wife to die of illness.
Paradise was dead. I was trapped on a rock known to no one, marked by no map.

My salvation came in the form of a single boat and a team of mysterious cartographers.
They were in search of mermaids. I, finding the one with the lightning-like birthmark, accompanied them
to another unmarked location: the sparsely populated isle of Yamu La Kanu.

What awaited me there was a fate even more tragic.

<report>Surprisingly underrated. This is an action-packed story following a widower out to avenge his wife, while trying to uncover the truth behind the spotting of a mermaid and the disappearance of the team searching for it. Feels more like an actual novel with visuals than a visual novel which was enjoyable.

Has great art, which the screenshots on the vndb listing don't show well. Unfortunately almost all of it is spoilers, or I'd add them. Impressive amounts of CGs, several scenes were changing between detailed CGs every other line, especially in combat. The soundtrack is decent, though lacking in quantity (chapter one mostly used one song).

Highly recommend if you're looking for a shorter, more serious work with the addition of some horror and emotionally impactful moments.
