Never before in Syrena’s life had she felt uncomfortable before but now she did, now she didn’t know what to do. How could this be? What sort of place was this Helovia that it could turn her into nothing more than an ordinary horse. Just that thought made shivers run down her spine. She was a herbivore now, a disgusting, lowly herbivore. She was still dressed like a monster - the ability of her dull coat to transform into dozens of colours when it came into contact with the water, the fins that decorated her head and bottoms of her legs - but she had lost the ability to do the truly magical things.

How was she supposed to hunt like this, to kill in such a useless body?

The bitterness drove her away from the beautiful land of the Falls and out, out somewhere. She wanted to find the forest where Essetia had found her but she didn’t know the way - she had not been used to paying attention to where she was going (it had never mattered before) and after leaving the rocky land she tried to retrace those steps.

But her heart brought her somewhere else. Right past the forest where she had been found, until the scent of saltwater caught her attention. The ocean. There had not been an ocean near those woods but the pull of the tide was too strong for her to avoid. Perhaps there would be sisters there, perhaps they would be able to tell her what was happening to her. Why had everything that she was get taken away from her, leaving her a horrid shell.

The beach was empty. In the sweltering heat of the afternoon she felt impatience growing, mingling with the bitterness and anger until she could not remember what it felt like to have positive emotions. She had been abandoned, stranded here for being the most beautiful of all her sisters. They had driven her here with their magic, that could be the only possible explanation. Trapped her here so she was no longer a threat.

The only remaining trick she had was the only thing that could soothe her now and she could not resist the chance to feel beautiful again. Without flare this time, without caring whether anyone was watching, she waded into the shallows and watched as the water changed the colour of her coat around her ankles - turning them a rich teal and bright tropical blue.

Pointless now, but it was something at least.

Fathomless slate-grey eyes stared at her ankles, wishing nothing more but to let the seafoam take her out of here and back to where things made sense.
