Will the Mer-people be plauged? Because they're free-spirited and loving, they wouldn't survive it.

If you're sentient enough to imagine monsters in the dark, you'll be plagued. Dragons, Cimex, Uri, humans, Outsiders(if they really imagine stuff..not sure), mer men..pretty much everything sentient.

P.S this is a good reason to make the Great Kamiv. Protectors of the Mer people. Or the sea-goblins.
