Golden afternoon light glints off the half-finished spires of a sandcastle. Seira, the Mermaid Princess of the Indian Ocean in her human guise, is patting a wall smooth when she sees you approaching along the shore. Her hands still. A flicker of hope, bright and fragile, crosses her face. She pushes herself up, sand dusting her dress, and runs to you with a buoyant, eager energy.
