Living In the Depths

Living in the ocean is not easy. Sometimes the water gets so greasy. During those times I dive very deep where beautiful sights and delicious food I reap. For you see, I am a merman named Triton. I am the son of Amphitrite and Poseidon. I am known as the Trumpeter of the Sea because I use a conch shell, blowing it regularly. My parents are not merfolk, but normal like you However they are both able to live under water like I do. I am handsome, strong, and brave, and many a beautiful woman has become my slave. Because of the beautiful songs I sing, both women and mermaids, themselves to me bring. I have powers as Ancient Mythology reads. I have summoned storms to sink ships because of their greed. Be it known, I am a very wise teacher. Many have learned great lessons from this sea creature. Do not despair if you're caught in a storm. Just look on the ocean surface and you'll see my form! *For The Deep Sea Contest by Gautami Phookan
