✨ EPIGRAPH ✨

"We are coming for you...

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Evil isn't born, it's created.

Singing used to be a joyous affair. Everyone lifting their voices to the water's surface during all the festivals and whenever the mood struck. Merpeople from all the oceans came together to sing and commune with their ancestors every fifth blue moon until the Wraith War destroyed merfolk and humans alike.

Ayriel hasn't used her voice ever since the destruction of her home. Assuming she is the last of her kind, she's surprised to meet Tristan, a merman with a powerful method for bending others to his will.

A different tailspin on The Little Mermaid.
