<Snipped quote by Kho>
How do you know Kraken won't just descend to the depths, where Zerabil cannot reach her?
Unless, *gasp* Zerabil willingly threw himself at the mercy of the oceans and became a Mer! But, if he does not move quickly enough, he will be a Merman forever!
And so, brave Zerabil saves his true love but is forever a Merman! Oh the tragedy. But as is they way with all fairy tales, the goddess he saves gives him the greatest of gifts: the ability to live in sea and on land alike! Hooray for happy endings and the defeat of all big bad krakens (he was turned into a stone, that kraken was).
The End.
