Tale of the Mermaid Teardrop

As the story goes: Neptune, the god of the sea had forbidden the mermaids from interfering with nature. The mermaids often accompanied ships as they crossed the oceans, and grew to care about the captains and crews who braved the seas in all kinds of weather. One evening a treacherous storm erupted, threatening to destroy a ship and send the captain and crew to a watery grave. There was a mermaid swimming alongside this ship as she often did. She had fallen in love with the captain from afar, and despite Neptune's warning, she used her powers to calm the wind and waves, saving the life of her beloved captain.

Enraged by the mermaid's disobedience, Neptune banished her for all time to the bottom of the ocean. Never again was she able to come to the surface or swim with the ships. She sobs still from the depths of the ocean and her tears wash up on sandy beaches of the world as sea glass teardrops in various beautiful colors of the sea.
