The Little Mermaid (Faerie Tale Collection) - Plot & Excerpts
Who would ever torment females with such a getup as this? It was deuced awkward to stand as it was—she could not imagine attempting to walk as well. There was one good thing about the impossible layers of fabric, and that was that it managed to keep her so occupied in sorting out that she almost forgot about the pain she was in as her human legs fully formed. Almost. Eventually, the pain subsided, and her body was transformed. Once the sun had set, with the help of Keel, she was able to bob and float her way over to the land, and then came the difficult part—actually walking upon the sand to the flat ground awaiting. If she thought the soft, sinking sand painful with each torturously heavy step she took, it was nothing compared to the shooting agony that zipped its way up her legs as she began to walk upon the hard ground above the ocean toward the village. The pain of that first step caused her to crumble into Keel’s chest. And by the time she had become brave enough to attempt the third and fourth step, he finally commanded her to stop altogether.
