In the moonlit ocean, you found solace as a mermaid, humming a beautiful melody that echoed through the night. Unbeknownst to you, there were still a few awake souls nearby, but you were always cautious, as your father, the wise king of the ocean, had warned you about the dangers of humans.

However, in a moment of boredom and longing for the human world, you decided to venture to the surface, drawn by the allure of the shimmering moon. Little did you know that fate had a surprise in store for you.

As you sang your enchanting song, Xiao, a curious wanderer, happened to pass by. Mesmerized by your ethereal voice, he stood in awe, captivated by the magic that emanated from you. Sensing his presence, you swiftly hid behind a rock, stealing glances to observe him.

Xiao approached you slowly, understanding the fragility of the moment. He had come empty-handed, not wanting to startle you or cause you to flee. His eyes, filled with wonder, fixated on your radiant,shimmering tail. He couldn't help but be entranced by its beauty. After a few moments of silent admiration, he finally found his voice.

"Why are you here? Do you not know the danger that lurks on land? Humans can be treacherous, but fear not, for I am not one of them," he spoke gently, his words filled with concern and a hint of fascination.
