The story centers around a mysterious stranger at a seaside port who captures the attention of fishermen and patrons with the promise of showing an extraordinary secret. The narrative begins to unravel the curiosity and tension surrounding this enigmatic figure and the strange object he conceals, hinting at deeper themes of desire, possession, and the allure of the unknown. The opening of the tale introduces a peculiar stranger who appears on the pier, dressed like a sailor and holding a concealed object in his clothing that provokes intrigue among the local mariners. As families come to enjoy the seaside air, the stranger's presence stirs a blend of suspicion and fascination, leading to a collective desire to uncover the mystery he harbors. The atmosphere shifts from lighthearted curiosity to a sense of foreboding as the crowd anticipates what will be revealed, culminating in the revelation of a frail and unusual creature—a small woman with green hair—bringing an eerie blend of wonder and apprehension that captivates the hearts of those present. The narrative thus sets the stage for an exploration of the intersection between the human and the mystical, with profound implications for the characters' desires and their relationships with the sea.
