Merrigan

Ah, hello, well met. I am Wayfinder Merrigan, the navigator extraordinaire who has been leading the Fathoms' latest circuit around the globe! We've just arrived back in these waters and err... we, uh... well, it seems like quite a bit has happened since we last visited... Aguar and Tetra have been filling me in. The maelstrom that hit the Sea of a Thousand Currents is troubling enough, but the Tidelord? Missing? He is certainly prone to cryptic mystery and all, but that is... alarming.

We're joining the seers in their investigation. Fathoms are the most capable divers around—if there are clues to what happened, we'll find them! Besides, we'll find them! Besides, we'll need to update our charts. The storm system that caused the maelstrom must have been massive. Who knows what we'll find down there now... well. Aside from the treasure! There's always some colorful, unique treasures to be found while mapping! Just, uh, a little bonus to fulfilling all the traditional duties of my role, of course...

Anyway, given how dire things are, I'm sure we won't find the Tidelord himself, but I can at least trace the changes in the environment since our last circuit. With his gift of prophecy he must have left something behind! We've already started our investigation of Tidesong Reef here. All the diverse coral and wildlife will make it easy to spot anything that's been altered. Gather what you can in the meantime—anything helps!
