When I say King, you say Dom

Prologue

        

Hey everyone I'm Crystal a.k.a Mermaid, This is my first attempt of a story. I've spent a lot of time trying to talk myself out of publishing but here I am! I hope you will enjoy this story as much as I have writing It!

Who else is completely obsessed with mermaids like me? Any fellow Merfolk out there!

Be Nice , share Love and Enjoy - XOXO

            The ocean has its own secrets, if it didn't the world would know that on a night where the moon turns ashy and cold, there is a mourning for the dead by the Gods who all created us. On the ocean's surface it was calm and crisp with salt, in fact the waves had almost stopped entirely. There were small waves that gave a gentle swish, so weak and in pain for the blood shed in an ocean war. If you held your breath maybe the agony of the dying would ripple through you just as it tore the merfolk apart.

         The City of Gashnell was the most beautiful merfolk city in all of the oceans, and one of the most coveted too. It was rumoured that the castle was made from the purest crystal by hand. Some whispered the legends older than them, that the God of the Oceans had crafted it herself. However the royal family of Cavernels sought to protect the city's secrets from their rival royal family Barnolow, only for war to terrorise its beauty into broken sorrows.

         For every secret an innocent life was taken that night. In a palace as large as their own the King and Queen knew they would never pay a greater sacrifice as they heard their guards drop heavily against the floor. Looking down at their new born babies, a prince and a princess, the King whispered promises to his wife and children. The door threatened to burst open, he shoved his Queen and the princess into a swirling liquid portal with seconds to spare. When the door slammed open and his attackers poured in, the King held his prince close and looked at them as if the battle was over and roared, "You have fought for nothing but your own demise fools!".         

I would just like to add that these characters are purely fictional, have no relation or meaning to anything real. This is my work of art, copyright is a big deal! I would never steal someone's art. I'd hope everyone respects that and  refrain from stealing any part of my story!

The way these people act are of my own free writing, if you are offended in any way don't leave harsh comments simply move to another wonderful story on wattpad.

I'm not an English major my grammar may not always be perfect.

I'll try to update every week, I'm currently in university so life happens don't hate!
