A legend
A myth
A person I met before
A person I wasn't expecting
This is certainly a surprise

A woman wearing a yellow coat and rain boots walks into the bar smiling her hair coming down in waves

Ordering a drink of Water instead of liquor surprised me but I did as asked

"Free of charge anything else?"
"Oh yes, Do you know a man by the name Justin Kohn?"

I snort into my hand smiling
"I'm Justin Kohn what can I help you with?"
"I'm Merida Loon from the Loon Family I came here to ask some questions about a secret"

She pulls out a letter handing it to me and I see her bracelet, Crescent moon with Jems of Rubies and Pearls

"The Moon Tide?"
"Yes! That legend has been passed down in our family for years and I never understood it, But my Mother wanted to ask the Kohn family"

Looking into her blue eyes I sigh rubbing my Forehead, I was the last Kohn in the family so I knew this Legend by heart

A Curse
A hoax
A blessing

No...

Betrothal

"You want to get married?"

Nodding she stands bowing

Taking her pale hand into mine I agree but with a clause

"We Keep this secret away from our future children"
"That's acceptable Kohn"

Tragedy awaits for me

Tragic Death by Poison

Died Rich with a Wife who was a Moon Witch

Took my body to the Tide in the ocean

I never resurface

Until A Thousand years Later

I was hailed

The Moon Tide King
