"She went to the surface again to see the voyagers." Flounder told Ariel off.
"What? How many times do I have to tell you that being on the surface is dangerous! What if humans could see you?"
"They're not dad. They're just like us but with legs.Also, I want to become a voyager myself. I want to have legs and sail a ship." said Ariel straightforwardly.
"Are you out of your mind! From now on no more going to the surface! You can't swim beyond this castle until you will return to your senses!" King Tritan reprimanded.
"What? No, you can't do that to me!" Ariel started to cry.
"Yes I can because I'm the king and you are my daughter. My word is the law!" King Tritan said firmly.
