They spoke of werewolves and vampires, the risk of fairy rings and full moons, but few ever spoke of the danger lurking in the water. Perhaps that was because there was so much water, perhaps it was because the depths of the oceans we're terrifying to try to comprehend. Few beyond the sailors spoke of the beauty and destruction to be found in crashing waves and still ponds. Mermaids, sirens, nymphs, selkies, and so many creatures that remained unnamed. It had been centuries since any had spoken the name of her people but that did not stop them visiting the land. And when the moon was eclipsed they could walk among the mortals, and what mischief they could find. What terrible mischief. Nobody ever spoke of the danger. Nobody ever warned him. And now it was too late. She had his hand and his heart, and soon the waves would take his soul. #flashfiction #amwriting #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #lifeofaperformer #cosplay #makeup #mermaid #magicofthewater #fantasy #costume #talesofthewiccad #drabble #writing #pose #photoshoot #photoedit #fantasycreature https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs8wbWyAMrd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cyfjpeaw7r1a
