“The story starts with Poseidon, god of the sea,” Lady Azura began. “One day, a sailor’s boat was caught in the powerful winds and the waves of a storm. The sailor was being pulled under and would surely drown, and the mermaids swam to help. Poseidon, angered that the mermaids dared to interfere with his control of the sea, banished them to below the surface. They were never to help another human in peril. The mermaids were so sad, that whenever they saw humans swallowed by the sea, they’d cry and their tears would harden and wash up to shore.”
