"Now you know who you really are! But you'll never get to live the life you were meant to live!

"I order you by the sea king to let me go so he may spare your life" I hiss a warning to her as she has me caged like an animal down on the bottom of the sea.

How was Kavan or anyone going to know where I was??

"Chill out little woman" she laughs. "you are in no place to give orders, are you?" she warns me.

She swims around my cage. "My how the tables have turned. Back when you had no idea, we merfolk were out here. A whole new world emerges for you right darling girl?" she laughs.

"How did you know it was me?" I wonder.

"Every merman and merwoman has the marking of the sea on them. You have one. On the back of your right arm look there" she demands.

I turn my arm and look at it. I had a little star marking. I always thought it was an odd shaped mole or something. I frown. It begins to glow on me. Then it stops. She smirks.

"The necklace to. You had it when I left you on the beach to die" she tells me.

"You thought I would die on the beaches?" I stammer.

"I dropped you off as a merbaby on the beaches. To die. Yes. Then by some magic you were turned human. And then your mother you know took you in when she found you there" she tells me.

"I am to marry Kavan?" I stammer as I try to gather all my thoughts.

"Why yes the bravest merman of the sea" she jokes. "You two have to be wed since you were born. You were promised to each other. He knew all along who you were. He nearly found you before me. If he did not already know it was you. He did not want to marry someone he does not know sadly. He has a mermaid back home. And he was hoping if he brought you home then this sham of a promised marriage would be lifted off his shoulders and he would be freed" she tells me with a laugh.
