TBM-2508.16 – Mermaid Minute: The Last Tide

by

Description:

The funeral itself isn’t about burial. We don’t put anyone in the sand. We build a shell barge — decorated with what they loved — and let the current take them. Aunt Coral had strings of pearls and her favorite coral comb. Old Finnback? A treasure chest full of maps he never used, because that man never admitted he was lost.

by

Description:

I’m sorry, am I an Actual Woman of the Sea, or did I wake up in a land-walker HOA with kelp-based paperwork? Because this is giving suburban cul-de-sac energy.
