Maeve
They're all lovely thoughts. Much lovelier than the actual tale of Siren. Maeve huffs a quiet laugh, breath ruffling his curls as she holds him close. "Not exactly. You see, she was a woman on a pirate ship. She'd stowed away and passed herself off as a man." The Nightshade began to weave the tale for him, eyes still on the constellation up above, "Except women were considered to be bad luck on a ship. Especially one that went out to sea. The captain found her hiding away and to avoid the bad luck, he had the crew throw her overboard." Knowing her son well, Maeve pauses to give him a moment to be properly outraged before she continues.
"But she was a follower of Frey and called out to the herald just as the waves overtook her. Frey, unwilling to let something happen to an innocent, changed her into a mermaid. Her tail just as beautiful as the stones on the Rainbow Road." Another smile curled on her lips as she got to her favorite part, recalling the first time she'd heard this story herself, thinking that the sailors got what was coming to them. "Not only that, but Frey also made her heartbreakingly beautiful, giving her a magical voice that would lure anyone to a watery grave should they be found guilty of bringing harm to the women on land or sea."
