Aedelyn Castle Alfitaria Resident
*4 Years earlier...* [Alfitaria, Beach] Aedelyn relaxed a bit at Alfitaria beach until he saw a sweet mermaid. It was Sirpa, from last year whom he saved from a fishing net that she got stuck in, she had green hair, green eyes, wore a green seashell bra, had a green tail, a double pearl bracelet on her left arm, and a double pearl bracelet on her tail. Oh, hello. We didn't get a chance to properly introduce ourselves before. My name is Aedelyn of Alfitaria, the son of a family of Tailors in Alfitaria. What's your name? Aedelyn said to the mermaid who he saved as he introduced himself.
Sirpa took a deep breath as she looked at the sky. This past hour had been quite heart-pounding. She had no idea how she even dared to "borrow" her family's magic book without permission. Afterward, she very carefully and quietly swam to this beach, keeping a close eye open if anyone was following. She would have been in deep trouble if her brother Urho had seen her.
Luckily, everything had gone smoothly so now she was on a part of the same beach she always visited to see if that boy would be around. After finding a spot that was somewhat secluded from curious eyes, she got as close as she could swim and then started to crawl up on the beach so that she would be sitting.
After collecting herself, she grabbed the book and opened on the bookmarked page. It was a complicated spell, but hopefully it would work, especially now when it was new moon. 'Please... let it work...
She started chanting the spell, doing everything that was written down. When she eventually was done, she just stared quietly at the book, then at her tail. 'It says that it could take a moment for it to work...' Guess she had to wait. The tail was starting to feel kinda weird.
She had just put the book on the side when she heard a familiar voice. She looked up and saw the boy. What were the odds? She then blinked surprised. She didn't introduce herself last time? She thought she did. 'I guess I didn't...' she thought. "I'm Sirpa from Riverin," she replied smiling.

[Alfitaria, Beach] Nice to meet you, Sirpa. That's a nice necklace of yours. What do you like to do for fun? Aedelyn said to Sirpa. She was a beautiful mermaid with her long green hair. He hoped to be friends with her after saving her life last year making him Sirpa's savior.
Sirpa nodded while smiling. "It's nice to meet you too. And thanks again for saving me last time," she replied. She wasn't too sure if she properly thanked him back then.
"Thanks. It was a gift from a dear friend." She really loved the necklace, as it was the first gift from her first friend Aulona.
She thought about his question about what she liked to do for fun. "I like singing, hanging with friends and making clothes." She also kinda liked playing hooky and sneaking away on adventures but that wasn't really anything she should feel proud about. "How about you?"

[Alfitaria, Beach] You're welcome. I like making clothes too in my spare time, mostly designing. Your long green hair is really beautiful. I hope to train one day to become an adventurer. Aedelyn said to Sirpa.
So, is it okay if you and I become friends? What songs do you like to sing? Would you like to hear a song from me? Aedelyn asked Sirpa.
She somehow felt glad to hear that he liiked making clothes too. "Thanks you," she said when he complimented her hair.
"I hope your dream will come true." Going on adventures on the surface sounded like a lot of fun, and she wanted to do that too. But even if the spell would work, she would need to wait until she was an adult, otherwise her family would worry.
"Sure, let's be friends." She didn't mind being friends with him. "It varies depending on mood, but I usually sing calm songs." She then nodded. "I would love to hear it."

[Alfitaria, Beach] Care to sing with me, Sirpa? Aedelyn said as he sung, hoping she would join in.
Insert Song: Morning Sky
Dreaming of the stars on high That speak to me in secret sighs Drifting on a breeze Only I can feel and hear
Could it be the sacred wind That's pulling me to now begin To walk into the dark Carrying the light of tomorrow
Need to walk the wings of high Beyond the earth, beyond the sky C'mon don't hesitate Don't look back we've got to go now
Don't fear You'll be safe with the one Morning star watching over all
Deep inside so silently My heart must beat Deep inside of me Memories flickering and shimmering on Endlessly
Keeping close to the path Morning star watching over all
Moving over endless mountains up so high Walking to the light Your heart will See the path and you will find your way Just wait and see
Moving under endless skies oh so high Tomorrow we'll follow, when in doubt, Your promises today Just wait and see
She nodded, smiling, nodded, as she then joined in to sing with him. During the song, the spell finally took full effect and in an instant, the tail into a pair of legs. But she was so into the song that she didn't even notice it.

[Alfitaria, Beach] After the song, Aedelyn, blushed toward Sirpa as she was now sitting in the water as a human girl but didn't notice her new human legs. Sirpa... You're really beautiful & you're cute. Your voice is also very beautiful. Aedelyn said to Sirpa. Sirpa was indeed beautiful, as a mermaid turned full magical human. It was a young crush he was starting to have on her.
"Thanks," she said with a light blush when he out of nowhere called her and her voice beautiful. As she turned her head slightly, she saw that her tail was gone. "Huh..." She carefully lifted the right leg, very shakily and stared dumbfounded at it as she started to wiggle the toes. "It worked..."

[Alfitaria, Beach] Aedelyn smiled Sirpa then saw the double pearl bracelet on her right leg That's a cute pearl anklet of yours & your legs are beautiful, Sirpa. Can you try standing up? Aedelyn said to Sirpa.
"Yeah, it si," she replied, looking at the bracelet. Where did it come from, she wondered.
She nodded at the question. "I will try." She moved some to try and stand up. wanting to test if she would be able to use the legs.

[Alfitaria, Beach] How do your legs and feet feel? I'll catch you if you need help balancing. Aedelyn said to Sirpa as he saw her attempt to stand up in the water where she was sitting. She was wearing her green seahsell bra she had as a mermaid. Both he and Sirpa were blushing. Aedelyn felt like he was falling in love with Sirpa. She was beautiful as as a mermaid & now, she’s beautiful as a full magical human on human legs and feet
Having gotten up on her knees, Sirpa was still for a moment, just so that she wouldn't get up too fast and risk falling. At the question, she thought of it, as she gently poked one of her feet with a finger. "They feel okay..." They didn't hurt or anything.
She was about to fully stand up when she realized something which caused her to blush. "This is awkward."
All she had really thought she would be doing was to cast the spell, try out the legs, change back and then head back home. Meeting Aedelyn again was an unexpected (yet nice) surprise, so she didn't think she would need to bring anything extra.
