Pompi was born at sea. His parents were pirates from Tunisia. On their way to the coast of Orosei, in Sardinia, he came into the world.
They settled there, but not long after, his parents mysteriously disappeared.
He was raised by a Sardinian family, where he learned the ways of the sea. Since then, he has dreamed of crossing the horizon himself, searching for the lost and the unknown.
Above his shoulders, he carries a Mediterranean shark—heavy, silent, built for depth and pressure. Behind him, a pompia grows. A rare fruit from the land that raised him. Bitter, almost inedible raw—yet he ate it as a child. Therefore he got the name Pompi.
When Pompi arrives in Barcelona, he is not met with ease. Like Samira, he is seen as different before being understood.
But with curiosity and determination he keeps moving.
Somewhere ahead, paths begin to cross.
