The price of a soul is heavy indeed.

It wasn't fair.

She hadn't understood. In the underwater kingdoms of her homeland there was no religion - no term for the intangible that made a person them.

She had gone to the meeting place thinking she was on sure footing - clear and confident beacuse of her past experiences with Ursala. The foul magic users under the sea sought real sacrifice from people: their voice, their firstborn, their life.

Any of which she was willing to give up in order to get Eric back.

It had been almost a week now since the witch had killed his entire hunting party and kidnapped him. A day since the note demanding Ariel, and only Ariel, meet her if she wanted him back.

The nobles could confer in meetings all they wanted but she had left as soon as night fell and she could slip away.

There was no way she was going to take any one else and risk this chance. His kingdom needed him - she needed him ( ... )

*****

Ariel remembers very little after that.

The witches laughter echoes.

And it burns - yes, it burns. But she is left feeling so cold.

It is Eric who gets them home, more caring her then anything else. And she feels she should be helping him, should be walking by herself and supporting her husband after his entrapment but... she somehow just can't.She feels so distant from herself ( ... )

I love this. I love how dark and melodic it is, and how at the end there's still the suggestion of more to come. It has a feeling of Brothers Grimm about it. Wonderful.
