In return for this service, the merfolk bless their coastal town with abundant fish catches and calm waters. However, commercial developers encroach upon the quiet seaside village, and Yosuke's father is drawn away from tradition in pursuit of modern prosperity, turning the mermaid's egg into a tourist attraction.
