~Under the Ocean~
It was a month after that fated, wonderful, terrible day, the sisters welcomed me the lost mermaid with open arms, her garden still shining, BOOM another failed cannonball, The castle has lost another turrent, the fish swimming out.

~The daughters of the air~
We cry more and more each day, the fathers are away and the children are misbehaving and there's nothing we can do. Our days prolonged further each moment, hope seems to be fading. We must stay positive in this purgatory. Most of us heal the wounded in this senseless war, the mermaids with no soul and the humans are more alike than we thought.

~A kingdom soldier~
This nonsensical war with the sea has started, yeah sure the party boy prince and his cushion warmer have left, why must I get involved. The mandatory army signups bringing literal children to the war, the pristine palace pretending to be innocent. Black funeral banners everywhere you look, this is all unnecessary, my brother in the navy lost out at sea, possibly carried away with what we refer to as sirens, all light is lost with one singular life.

~The seawitch~
Alas, the blade was thrown, the prince fallen, all goes well, aside from the reckless ruckus outside my walls, praise the caverns of the land, for they contain solitude, curse the noise this brings.

~The navy survivor~
CRASH our ship goes down, all hands on deck, attempts to salvage this now scuttled wreck lessening in frequency, all goes down into the depths. The air and sea, freezing, we fall, I struggle for safety and find my way onto the shores of a neighbouring kingdom. Praising the lord I hope they take kindly to me and allow my weary soul to rest. Maybe I could find some carrier pidgeon to send a message to the army defending the castle on seige.

~The child~
Father and brother have left for war, everything is scary, my mother weeps nightly, I attempt to comfort her to no avail, could it possibly be the letter she recieved a fortnight ago? I dearly hope my father and eldest brother return together soon and tell me those delightful tales of adventure once more!
