Not my fault I found a shiny bauble that gave me legs. Amber isn't like her sisters. She dreams of the world above the waves even if it's forbidden. When she finds an ancient artifact that allows her to explore the world of man, she discovers that a local sea witch has been waiting for a red-haired mermaid to make the mistake of walking among humans. Now she's stranded. Amber will go on an epic adventure to discover the truth of her people, the power of her own heart, and a sacrifice that only love can bring. "Stranded" is an Ancient Realms novelette and a tragic Little Mermaid retelling.
