Daniel gives Elena a glass of water while she speaks about the pain locked inside her mind. He displays his glowing wrist seal and offers to guide her deeper into hypnosis. Elena accepts his offer. Inside her subconscious ocean, Daniel witnesses her true mermaid shape. He sees a past memory of her crying over his body on the beach and granting him the Kiss of Oblivion. Back in the room, scales break out on her arm.
Daniel hands Elena a glass of water in his office. Elena talks about the painful lock inside her thoughts. Daniel displays the glowing seal on his wrist and suggests going deeper into hypnosis. Elena agrees to let him try.
Daniel enters the deep ocean of Elena's subconscious. He sees her true mermaid form before falling into a flashback. On a shore three years ago, Elena weeps over his unconscious body and presses the Kiss of Oblivion to his lips.
Recovering the memory causes an intense psychic backlash back in Daniel's office. Elena screams in pain as fish scales rapidly erupt across her arm. Daniel faces danger to his own mind but firmly refuses to release her hands.
“I trust you Daniel. Even if it hurts. I want to know who I really am.”
“Forgive me. Forget everything about me. It's the only way you'll survive.”
“It was me. I'm the one who saw her true form three years ago. I took the kiss of oblivion.”
“I've waited three years for answers. I'm not letting go now.”
Elena screams in agony as siren scales spread rapidly over her arm from the memory backlash. Daniel risks severe harm to his mind, yet he holds on and refuses to break their connection. Will Daniel be able to pull them both out of this psychic trauma, or will the spreading scales consume Elena completely?
