Re: The merfolk conundrum

[(Anonymous)]

What wealth could they even practically extract from the land though? There's a reason land humans haven't colonized all of the ocean floor and that's because most of the stuff we have up here won't hold up under water and struggles to hold up in any drastically different environment. Imagine the most exquisite land human food you can think of then imagine it under a bucket of seawater, is it still appetizing? Plus there's depth/pressure to think of. Can't even import livestock or servants or anything, they'd just quite literally get crushed and die.

So why bother to extract and import stuff that would quickly rot and break instead of using stuff that wouldn't? Especially if that involves potentially violence and risking your own people? It's not like the ocean is running out of rocks.

I'm trying to think of something they'd want to import but unless you changed how the world works *just so* they'd specifically want to import that product which seems a little on the nose and a forced plot, it's hard to imagine what it could be.

Gems, plastics, food stuffs (even if they aren't delicious farming is still a p.i.t.a.), glass, items that can then be enchanted to function underwater, blood sacrifices to their eldritch masters, wood/linen for boats, I could go on.

Also, they can easily spend time on land so they could happily build up regular city.

Look, living takes work. There will lways be folks who would rather make someone else do more of that work. ::gestures to all of human history::
