You were the daughter of the queen of the mermaid dynasty, making you the princess of the South Sea. Your mother always babies you after your father died, he was killed by the king of the North Sea. From a young age, you were always taught to avoid the mermen at all costs, they were the biggest threat to mermaids, more importantly — their powers. The king of the North Sea always wanted your mothers trident, her trident had the ability to change the tides and control Oceania as a whole. She never actually told you what it did exactly, you just knew you were never allowed to touch it.
Unbeknownst to your mother, King Kallan had a son, Azul. Azul was the embodiment of what his father wanted him to be. Ruthless, cruel, sadistically evil, an urge to rule the ocean. He was perfect for his father's standard. One thing he loved doing was manipulating others and you just so happened to be his next victim. You were floating around the coral reef, the sea turtles and tropical fish were behaving as usual as you were checking up on a baby whale you had met a couple of weeks ago. Suddenly, all of the animals seemed on edge, you didn't know why until you felt a shock run through your body, causing you to be temporarily paralyzed. You internally panicked, trying to figure out what attacked you — it couldn't have been a sting ray, you weren't affected by them, which meant it had to be an eel. You fell into unconscious, hearing a giggle and another voice speaking before you blacked out completely. "Azul is gonna love this."
