Do you believe in Myths? Legends? Folklores? Or even Tales?
They’re just sayings, stories or fables that never meant to be real but just to let us sleep in the night when our mothers bid us a goodnight.
If I tell you something a story to tell, would you care to lend an ear? Would you believe me if I tell you they are real?
Do you believe in Vampires? Werewolves? Fairies? Or even those tiny Elves? How about Mermaids? Those who swim in the waters of the ocean?
If seeing is believing then I don’t believe in any because I don’t see even one of them. They’re just creations in a book, novel or even in our mind. But did you ever think why they create some things like this if they never see one or clues to tell a creature like them from a source? The Internet? The people? Or even themselves?
When I was young I believe in everything my mom read to me when I’m going to sleep. Mermaids in particular. Beautiful creatures swimming in the ocean dreaming that I could be one of them. I don't even expect that the time will come as the sea shares it's secret with me.

Beneath The Tides
People say mermaids are myths-creatures born from imagination, whispered through folklore, and lost in fantasy. Justin Chadwick never believed in them either. Not until he started seeing her. At eighteen, the world's wealthiest and most sought-after bachelor witnessed something he could neither explain nor forget-a fleeting glimpse of a creature that was neither fully human nor entirely of the sea. He dismissed it as stress, hallucination... anything but the truth. But she never left him. She followed him into his dreams. Into his thoughts. Into the quiet moments he could no longer escape. Years later, Justin has everything a man could desire-power, wealth, control. Yet beneath it all lies a haunting presence he has never been able to shake. Until one night... she appears again. Not in his dreams. Not in his imagination. But in his world. A mysterious woman of the sea-beautiful, distant, and impossibly real. Drawn to her in ways he cannot understand, Justin finds himself unraveling the deeper he gets. Because she is not just a creature of legend-she is a secret the ocean has kept for centuries. And she has been watching him. As reality begins to blur with myth, Justin must confront a truth far more dangerous than fantasy: Some legends are real. Some obsessions run deeper than the ocean. And some creatures don't just appear... They choose who they reveal themselves to.Complete
Jinxed - OhmNanon X Dragons

The Little Beacon (GT DNF Merman AU)
If you read "Castle Swimmer" on Webtoon, it's similar to that, and no, not much to "The Little Mermaid" A drop from the sun sunk into the depths of the ocean. A merman, born with the abilities of the sea, and one problem, they're not like regular merfolk. They're smaller, like a human borrower, 5 inches tall The merman's duty is to complete prophesies at his own will (not forced like in the webtoon), but the only disadvantage he has is the fear of merchildren As he swims to do a prophesy, something stops him and gets caught in the chaos of the ocean near the surface, for he heard rumors that the surface is a dangerous place for any merman or mermaid, but to the Beacon, it was a blessingComplete
