The ocean did not, could not remember a time before Rafayel. It seemed to bend at his every whim, lurch at his every move, love over his kind demeanor and gentle nature. The ocean loves him. And in turn, Rafayel loved it. Perhaps that's why the merfolk were confused, then, when the ocean grew dark. aka Merfolk prince Rafayel meets a human artist and falls in love. If only things could remain so simple. {9.4k words}
