Once upon a time, there was a great sailor named Bruno. He lived in Cinque Terre and loved the sea.

Bruno had a best friend named Massimo. They loved to go fishing together.

One sunny day, Bruno and Massimo decided to go on a fishing trip. They took their boat and set sail.

After a while, they accidentally discovered a deserted island called Isola del Mare.

The island had a large tower that seemed very old. Bruno was curious about it.

Bruno said, 'Massimo, let's explore the tower and see what's inside!'

Massimo agreed, and they carefully entered the tower. It was dark and empty inside.

They looked around but found nothing. Bruno felt a little disappointed.

As they left the tower, they saw a beautiful mermaid sitting by the shore.

The mermaid had long, shiny hair and a sparkling tail. She smiled at them.

The mermaid said, 'Hello! I am Marina. Thank you for visiting my island.'

Bruno and Massimo were amazed. They had never met a mermaid before!
