This is a tale about a race of particularly mischevious creatures that lurk beneath the ocean waves. Common folklore states their enchanting voices can possess any who come too close. Although their image has been tainted through years of storytelling, their true nature still remains a mystery. (This story is solely for the purpose of entertainment, a retelling if you will. If this story turns out as a flop, the real myths are WAAAYYYY better. Trust me.)
