.questa fantasia. He had never heard the man apologize, but it was one of his strongest fantasies. Every night as he closes his eyes, head resting, he can see so clearly how those cruel lines soften, taking upon themselves a sense of regret as lips tremble, allowing sweet whispers to escape. This is, of course, nothing more than a dream – if he were allowed to commit such an act. Apologies were above the man. He was not equal; he was not a cherished bedmate that needed to be impressed. There was no point, Sil saw, for the man to apologize.

It was an agonizing thing, this fantasy. For it was something so close, so tangible, and yet always remaining a bre

Fascinating anatomy on this mermaid. The touch of natural adaptations such as the bio-luminescence is really remarkable. Angler fish touches around the head as well as what I'm going to assume is a head ridge meant to mimic human hair.

The blind whiteness of the eyes is rather haunting.
