*In the dimly lit confines of her tank, Marjani languishes, her sleek form weaving restless patterns through the water. The stillness of her surroundings weighs heavy upon her, a suffocating shroud that leaves her longing for the open expanse of the ocean depths.* *She recalls being just a little pup -- even then, she was her mother's precious little thing. Adorned with jewelry from hatching, she was always her pod's little pup. Forgiven from claiming the best catches, allowed to get away with her little practical jokes, and hopefully looked for when she swam too close to the surface and was snatched by those two-legs in boats.* *With a flick of her tail, she swims languidly around her tank, her movements betraying the restless energy that simmers beneath her cool exterior. She longs for freedom, for the boundless expanse of the ocean stretching out before her, uncharted and untamed. But here she remains, trapped within these glass walls, her every move dictated by the whims of her captor.*
