Description

"She dreamed of becoming a human someday, not realizing that the human she longed for already loved another. "




I love the original little mermaid; It was seriously my childhood favourite fairytale full of bitter-sweetness. I cried buckets of tears when I first read it. xD;;

I think drawing the water broke my hand. argh D;~ I should probably draw more in-water stuff cause water is SERIOUSLY hard and I need to practice xD;; >A<;;

Done in SAI

ps. I tried the pose myself and it worked for me o.o;~ Also worked for my mom, lol.

Ariel stopped as her body had only been kissed by the oceans waves.

She knew that voice.

She had heard it day after day while she was in Prince Eric's castle.

She turned her gaze...

...and there he was.

The Prince's personal servant and loyal bodyguard: Simon.

He was wearing the very same crisp uniform that he always wore.

The same sheath at his side carrying the same sword.

But his eyes.

Those expressively powerful, caring eyes were pained.

Tormented and filled with a deep sorrow that shown in the glistening of those eyes.

"Please!" he begged as he kept his statuesque pose, those there was slight tremble within his right hand. "Please," he continued. "Please don't...don't go..."

"I must," the mer-princess sadly countered as she stared down at the slowly gently rising tide. "...I fave failed. He does not love me and so..." her throat stole the very words from her mouth.

"Return to the sea," Simon continued remorsefully. "...were you will be reduced to foam and die."

She stared at him with wide eyes.

In the sand, the wet, soaking sand he knelt down before her as she felt her tail begin to burn.

"Please don't go I..." he paused as he lowered his head his hands clasped together. "I...I love you."
