Description
In the past she would swim to the surface to sit along the water's edge and watch the humans. She used to find them quite magical. Most mermaids thought so. But over time she lost her intrigue. She began seeing their shadow sides, and how their fears evolved into hate. She couldn't stand to watch them being so mean to each other anymore and decided to remain in the safe and loving waters of the cove.
As the years passed she began to change. Merfolk don't age like humans, with wrinkles and such. Merfolk begin to patina when they age, a colorful sheen cloaks them, most especially their tail. As she began to patina, she became hidden in the waters even more. She blended into her surroundings. This made the Moon ever so sad because he loved Fin the most. It seemed that every night it would take even longer to find her. Finally one cold night in November he called to Fin and presented her with a gift wrapped in stars. Inside she found a crescent slice of the moon. (Twas a piece of his heart, truly). He had attached it to a rod from the Milky Way as a handle. The crescent was a pure illumination, a soft glow of the moonlight. He asked her to hold it up to her face each night, so that the moonlight could reveal her beautiful spirit. and he could find her to say goodnight.
