It's the first time I've ever heard of something like this.

Are all the books in this world the same?

[Weirdness aside, Nami has had a bit of time to digest what's happened to her. She does not like being stripped away from her quest, not at all. Saving her entire race is pretty important, you know. But considering what she's learned of the Piedra Roja so far, what comes next seems easy enough.]

Anyways, my name is Nami and humans know me better as a mermaid. I've never actually been part of a crew, or had much reason to use a boat, but I know how to work with a team and I'm pretty comfortable in the ocean. I can harm and I can heal, like the seas themselves.

[It's kind of where she lived for most of her life, after all.]

I'm not really looking for anybody in specific, but if anyone out there has heard of a "moonstone"...

[Nami stops talking for a moment.]

It's really important that I find one.

[Unlikely that she'll get anything out of that, but she may as well try.]

Nami?! You're a mermaid now?! What happened did the stone thing change you? Do you need help changing back?!

What are you talking about? I've always been this way, and I don't want to change into anything else.

Ehh? [he knew Nami wasn't always a mermaid because she had legs and mermaids didn't have those until they were old so] You must be a different one. Yo. I'm Luffy.

[MERMAID. TRY NOT TO SOUND EXCITED.]

Ahh. What's a moonstone, miss?

My people live deep underneath the ocean, but we're not alone. We use the moonstone's light as a ward against creatures that would want to attack my kind.

But its glow only lasts for one hundred years, and it's my duty to find a new one before it's too late.

Ehhh, really?

Fishman Island had somethin' weird like that. I dunno about stoppin' monsters, but it lit up their big bubble kinda like a sun.

I'm sorry but I have never heard of a moonstone before. What exactly is it?

My people live deep underneath the sea, and we need the moonstone to keep other creatures from attacking us..

Do you get attacked a lot then?

Maybe you'll find this 'moonstone' at the Backwater Brig. I mean it has a lot of things there, so maybe if your lucky you might find it.

[Would it really be that easy?] You think? I saw that place being mentioned when I first opened this journal.

Guess I should stop by and have a look.

It's always worth a shot and if it isn't there then don't give up hope and I'm sure people will find something like what your looking for.

I've had Moon Stones before, but I don't have any with me at the moment sorry... [ How different they could be between their universes escapes his train of thought. ]

How urgent is it? I'll keep my eye out! [ Even while stranded in an alien world, an explorer must be ready for duty! ]

Urgent? The survival of my people depends on it! It's the only reason I left my home to look for one.

[This very important fact also goes overlooked by Nami.]

Are you really the moonstone's bearer?

[ Calvin's face widens in shock, and his voice alarmed in turn. ] Oh no that's really serious...!

I... I don't have it right now but! I'll look for one! But...

[ He sweats. ] If it's this important and powerful, then I might not be thinking of the same moonstone... But I'd really like to help...

Hello Nami,

My name is Marco, and I'm with the Spade crew.

Two questions for you, if I may? What island are you from, and what do you associate moonstones with? If they are directly rocks from the moon, they might different planet to planet, or moon to moon, as I'm starting to learn.

I'm not from any sort of island. My home has always been underneath the sea and I've only been on the surface world for a short while.

There's not much I can say about the moonstone. It was always been given to us through a trade with someone from the surface. But when I went to get it, the bearer... never made it.

-A mermaid... just a fancy word for another human devouring youkai, as far as she was concerned, but she figured she could play nice.-

Not all books. Just these specific journals.

[Why would anybody want to eat a human, that sounds so gross.]

Is it magic, or something else that lets us use them like this?

[Nami's glad she at least knows it's not common to every piece of literature. She doesn't really want to look like a fool by talking into every single book she comes across.]

If nobody can direct you to one, it's possible that you might find a moonstone on one of the islands.

I'll check them out as much as I can. If there's a chance I can find one while I'm here, I have to take it.

A...Mermaid...

[At first he sounds rather disbelieving, and then with a residing sigh he decides to just accept it.]

Well, at least you're not a vampire.

So what do you call yourselves if you don't mind me asking?

We're called the Marai.

[And yes, Nami is glad she's not a vampire. Though, she may only know a little bit about vampires.]

I'd show you what I look like, but I don't think I can do that with this thing.

Sweetheart, heard y' say mermaid an' that yer needin' a crew. Mine's catastrophically short on other fishfolk like myself an' I don't give a shit if the Cap says no more recruitin'. Yer welcome t' swim 'long with the Spades any time y' want. Hell I'll come pick y' up myself. What y' say?

[Sweetheart. What.]

That's pretty nice of you, and I don't see why I shouldn't accept. [Having at least someone else who's similar to her might just help her settle in that much better.] But about your captain? I know what you said, but... Is it really going to be alright?
