														   [The only way to get what you
want]

[Is to become a human yourself]



[Can you do that?]



[My
dear sweet child]

[That's what I do]

[It's what I live for]

[To help
unfortunate merfolk, like yourself]

[Poor
souls with no one else to turn to]



I
admit that in the past I've been a nasty

To those poor unfortunate souls



[Have we got a deal?]



[If
I become human]

[I'll never be with my
father or sisters again]



[But you'll
have your man]

[Life's full of tough
choices, inn'nt it?]

[Oh, and there is one
more thing]

[We haven't discussed the
subject of payment]



[But I don't
have any..]



[I'm not asking much,
just a token]

[Really, a trifle]

[What I want from you is, your voice]



[But without
