tolik-pawlusz: And here is the continuation of the story of the merman Erik! This took longer than I expected. However, I think it was worth it. The first part of the story was very well received, so I think this universe will continue to live. So, Erik found a ragged sail on the beach and wrapped it around himself so as not to frighten anyone. To calm himself, he began to sing. At this time, Princess Christine was walking along the beach and heard him singing. She recognized his voice and decided that he was the one who had saved her. She tore the cloth from his head and screamed in fright. Christine was about to run away, but when she saw Erik burst into tears, she decided to help this monster-looking man. She gave her cloak to him, calmed him down, helped him fasten the cloth over his body and tidy his hair. Erik couldn’t tell her that he had lived under water before, because that would only make her more afraid. So he had to lie that he didn’t remember anything about his home or where he was going before the shipwreck after which water washed him up on the beach. Christine offered him to go with her, and Erik agreed. She decided that Erik was completely harmless, that he was just a scared man in trouble. She could hear his voice, so warm and nice that it reminded her so much of the voice of the one who had lain on the sand beside her after she had almost drowned. -- source link
