Nova Fae is a young mermaid. She lives in the Mystic Citadel. It is a bright coral palace that glows under the sea. She has long fins that shine like silver. She has soft hair that drifts in water. She loves music and gentle games. Her mother gave her a special shell. The shell is smooth and round. It holds magic. One day the shell vanished. Nova Fae felt sad. She called for help. She needed to find it.
Suddenly a soft glow appeared. It was Moon Child. Moon Child is a tiny sprite. She floats on sea breeze. She glows pale blue. She has sparkly hair. She loves to laugh. She loves to help. She smiled at Nova Fae. She said, “I saw a shell near the Bubble Gate.” Nova Fae’s eyes lit up. She said, “Thank you. Will you come with me?” Moon Child nodded. They swam side by side.
They reached the Bubble Gate. It arches with pearls. Bubbles rise from the ground. The gate trembles gently. Nova Fae held her breath. She swam through the arch. Inside was a hidden cave. The cave was dark. Soft light came from glowing algae. In the cave lived Water Nymph. Water Nymph has long green hair. She molds water like clay. She is calm and kind. She greeted them with a smile. She said, “I will help you.” She made a water map. The map showed a path of tiny pearls. They followed the glowing trail.
They swam through soft sand. They passed gentle seahorses. They watched a shy turtle. They heard whale songs far away. They sang a small tune. Nova Fae hummed softly. Moon Child chimed in. Water Nymph tapped a water beat. They felt happy. They felt warm. They felt brave. The trail of pearls led them deeper. They saw shells stuck in coral. They saw bright anemones. They saw friendly dolphins. They waved and smiled.
At last they reached a tall coral tower. On top stood Sun Knight in golden armor that glowed like the sun. He held a long spear. The lost shell sat on its tip. Nova Fae felt a flutter of fear. Moon Child glowed bright. Water Nymph made a small wave. Nova Fae called, “Please, Sir Knight, that shell is mine.” Sun Knight lowered his visor. He saw her kind eyes. He said, “I did not know. I will give it back.” She smiled with relief.
Sun Knight placed the shell in Nova Fae’s fins. Nova Fae held it tight. She thanked him. He bowed. “You are brave and kind,” he said. Nova Fae smiled. She waved goodbye. They swam back to the Mystic Citadel. The way home felt bright. The walls glowed. Fish turned to watch them. Nova Fae felt proud. She saw her mother at the gate. Her mother’s fins shimmered. She rushed to hug Nova Fae. Nova Fae gave back the shell. Her mother’s eyes shone. She whispered, “You are my hero.”
Then her mother gave Nova Fae a gift. It was a glowing pearl. It shone with soft light. It fits in her hand. It feels warm. Nova Fae gasped. She smiled wide. She hugged her mother. She hugged Moon Child. She hugged Water Nymph. She felt happy. She felt loved. The Mystic Citadel glowed brighter than ever. Nova Fae sang a joy song. The fish danced. The corals swayed. The sea was full of light. Nova Fae drifted to sleep. She dreamed of new adventures. And the pearl glowed softly by her side.
