Curiosity killed the Mermaid, but saved the human

I had a dream about that whole mermaid au goin around so I decided to draw a scene from it. Del was a shark-merman prince of the great whites, who ruled at the top of the food chain and over all marine life. Unfortunately, Del was sent away because of his kindness and tenderheartedness, proving him to be incapable of ruling the kingdom as a fierce, dominant leader after his father.

In the dream, Humans cannot see mermaids, but mermaids can see humans. In their eyes, they look like the animal they are half of. (So to Evan, Del just looks like a small great white shark) One day, Evan- a marine biologist- was studying a family of humpbacks when a hoard of sharks attacked his little canoe. (dont ask why he was in a tiny-ass canoe in the big-ass ocean idk why)

The prince saw this and was not going to bother, but he eventually succumbed to the guilt. Del touched the human’s eyes, giving him temporary sight of a mermaid (aka he could see Del) and allowing him to breath under the water until he could get close enough to shore. 

Then I woke up ;v; I tried using more colors in the water to make it look like an aurora or something. idk, mermaid land was weird in my dream. Also the whole upside-down effect thing actually happened in the dream too, like, once he could see Del, the entire world flipped over.

Anyway, there ya go! Sorry for all the description, but I really wanted to explain what happened ;v;

ALSO THE GLOW EFFECT IS A GOD
