"There's so much history, yet I'm not sure if I even know where to begin. Of course, the beginning is usually where one starts, but who cares? All that's really important is my name, really. I'm Nita Larene, sea princess, but please do me a favor and not call me princess anything. Formalities are something I don't care for at all. I don't really know why, but it annoys me. There's always those who would talk to me solely because of my lineage and those are the kind of folks I'd rather stay away from if I can help it.
I'm a mermaid, but I'm sure you already know that. I love not being human. It gives me a sense of freedom that I otherwise wouldn't have. Humans are great to play around with though. I never told my father, but I once fell in love with a human. Alas, it wasn't meant to be. Speaking of my father, he's the King of the merfolk and leader of the Mahina clan and likes to let everyone who doesn't know, know. Growing up in that family wasn't pleasant to say the least. There was always so much expected of me, I never really fit in.
That's probably why I don't like to associate myself with them too much. They're all so formal and strict. My mother was very beautiful, but intensely scary at the same time. Learning the ropes of life from her was not fun at all. Everything I did, it wasn't good enough and I was constantly reminded of how different I was compared to my many brothers and sisters. I'm not the youngest, but I might as well be, there's so many of us. I often wonder how my parents found the time.
In any event, I supposed I learned whatever I was suppose to learn because eventually everyone got off my case. Even though I grew up in a very large family, I wasn't particularly close with any of them. They hated humans and anyone who wasn't like them. That just wasn't for me. Sure, humans and most of the other races might have been beneath us, but I wouldn't go as far as to isolate myself from what was going on in Reena just because I didn't like someone. No, I always prided myself on being a rather worldly person. At least, I try to be.
One day, while swimming near the shore, I came across a very handsome man. I knew he was human right away, but I knew that it couldn't be. Relations with others not of our race were strictly forbidden and unless I wanted banishment from my people, I knew I had to ignore him. Unfortunately, I couldn't and we continued to strike up a conversation. Our affair went on for a year or two before we were caught. My father, in all his anger, killed my human lover and I was banished from my people for my "traitorous" acts.
I've been on my own for over a decade now, but in that time I've mingled with many others, merfolk or not, and we've formed a small little community. I miss my world, but I'm not exactly eager to go back and redeem myself. The only man I ever loved is dead. There's nothing much left for me in terms of finding another. I've relegated myself to that much, as sad as it might be. But, I'm no victim and I hate those who would pity me. It could have ended up a lot worse. My father spared my life, why I don't really know nor do I care."
