Our dear king and the brave soldiers fight to their full strength, this war had been going on there's many humans and merman died until the 2nd year of the war, the war ends.
No one wins in this war, A commander of a human who have replaced the previous commander that have died during the war. He declared a peace with our King, and he said this:
"My dear king, I want to propose a peace with you and to our species as well, We all have enough of the blood of our own and the dying scream we'll always hear. I know that you know, we need to stop sacrificing of our men.
I apologize if that's what you want to hear or even my life in exchange for peace. Would you please accept my offer?" the Commander said.
And our king agrees and announced the rules for us, he announced the one and only golden rule too, that better not to break or else he/she will face the consequence. Our king replied to the Commander:
"I accept your offer and in one condition, Do not ever come to our sea again, if one of your humans come to our sea. I won't hesitate to tell my soldiers to take them down to the sea and drown to their death."

The Golden Rule:

After that our Kingdom and the humans have few interactions but one day, A ship had crossed to our sea and it met a strong storm. The ship had sunk to the sea and there's a mermaid nearby who help a human, she swims to the land and rescue it. When the human wakes up he fell in love at first sight of the beautiful mermaid. After that, they always meet at their secret place to hide their relationship.
When the day comes that the couple wants a baby to start a family but we all know that can't be happen unless one of them turns into a human or a mermaid. And so the mermaid ask for a favor to a witch, she asks for legs so that she can be with the man she love and the witch smiled with intention when she accepts it. The witch said:
"I accept your favor but on one condition, since you plan on having a child, I foresee that you will bear a twins; one is blonde and the other is raven, I want the raven promise me that you'll give me the raven hair baby then I'll grant your favor to be with your love"
The mermaid promised and the witch works her magic. The mermaid beautiful tail splits into two and the scales starts to fade away and it shows the skin of the legs. Until the legs has shown the mermaid can't breathe and she starts to swim to the surface. The time is perfect her beloved lover is there waiting and they lived happily.
The day has come where the mermaid gives the Witch the raven hair baby. They meet in a hiding place and the mermaid gave her own baby to the witch, after 9 years the couple died because of the sickness that has spread in the land of London. The 6-year-old child was left alone and they said maybe the child died with the parents too.
"The End, John go to sleep, now" The mermaid closes the book and pat on the young merboy's head. The young merboy smiled and giggle.
"aww~ I want to know what happen to the raven hair baby" he whined.
"Well, I don't know what happen to that part" The mermaid shrug and give the boy a pat on the shoulder and smiled at him. She ushered him to sleep on the big clam bed and tuck him on.
"Auntie, do you think that the 6-year-old child is still alive?" The boy asked. The Aunt look at him and smile softly she caress the boy's head. She assured him that the 6-year-old is alive.
"Yes, the child is still alive, I can imagine that he's in a safer place"

"I am your mother!"
A woman shouts at a teenage mermaid boy. She's a half human half octopus, her lower part are the tentacles and her color is deep violet that matches her long Raven hair.
"You are not my mother! You are a liar, a thief "
"You need to listen to me, I am not a thief and your real mother doesn't care about you" The woman trying to keep the teenage boy to calm down his nerves.
"Careful with your tone about my REAL Mother! You do not have any rights to say it like that!"
"You are nothing but a Liar! Liar!" He continued to shout at her with his raised voices and loud.
