Story Of Cronos
Lorali swims towards the palace. She had heard that a great war had begun upon the land and that mighty flying beasts were in the center of this. As she enters the palace she sees her father surrounded by mermen she had never seen before. She waits for a time when she could talk to her father alone, when the time came she said "I have never seen those mermen before, father, who are they, were do they come from?" Kron turned to see his daughter next to him. "Why are you here! You were sent to the gautto for samples of the seaweeds growing there." She pouted at him and his harshness crumbled, she is so like her mother he thought. I heard there is a mighty war upon the land, is this true? Aye tis true and those are humans who have come here for our help. She pondered this but how can they be human...they have fins like us? Kron had hoped he'd never have to tell his daughter of the secert potion that people could change into merfolk and merfolk could change into human for 1 whole day. "There is a potion that humans can use to become merfolk my child that is how they are able to come here." "Oh!, Ok father," still baffled by this, "but how can we help them in their battle?" Kron again had to lie to her. "We are to let them know if we see any big camps from the seas around PenDragon". When in fact the mermen of Cronos were to take the potion and join the ground troops in the human war including Kron himself. He could never ask his people to do something this dangerious without him there too. Lorali knew something was not right, but she let it drop for now. Kron asked if she'd see to dinner. She hugged him and swam towards the dinning area not knowing that this night would be the last that they would share.
