[se] That distant horizon

REMI

& now I'm all alone in the dark of night

I can only imagine. Finding it far easier to address the merman now that he possessed none of the features that normally threatened to hold the alchemist's gaze, Remi frowns. There have been some to try and make...artificial ways for your kind to remain above the surface, but none have been successful that I have heard of. He says almost apologetically, his mental voice coloured with a pulse of regret. Would he have been capable of creating such a thing, in the days before he became the horrific killing-creature he was now?

Mmmm. It was what I was originally, before becoming...this. Gesturing vaguely at himself as if his musculature and scars said more than any words might, Remi nods. Calling up a memory, a glass jar with a sealable lid appeared suddenly in his hands. The memory wasn't a particularly strong one, but it would do while...oh. Sorry, how rude of me. My name is Remi, by the way. He thought towards the stranger, realizing only just now that he didn't know the other man's name.

The moon is shining but I can't see the light
