Thanks~ I left it open so that lots of mermaids/men could be/ are dangerous to humans, including members of her family/pod, but she isn't. This could leave the door open for future conflicts with her family.

I was actually wondering if you had any thoughts about mermaid abilities? I don't want to make her super powerful, but I was thinking she could be able to breath underwater, swim very fast when she needs to, see and hear clearly under water, be able to descend into depths that humans can't, cold blooded so hot or cold water doesn't bother her, an affinity with sea animals, just basic mermaid abilities. I had a thought that the kiss of a merperson could allow a human to survive underwater for a period of time, but it's just an idea at this point.
