The Little Mermaid is a representative of Andersen’s fairy tales. As the heroine, the little mermaid is one of the most classic characters of fairy tales. With full emotions, Cai Gao illustrated the beauty of the sea, as well as the pathos in the little mermaid’s eyes.
The mermaid falls in love with a human so she pretty much trades her voice for legs and if she doesn't make the human fall in love with her (without a voice on top of that) then the sea urchin that took her voice will take her soul as well.

In the crystal clear waters of the deep ocean the King of the Sea lives with his daughters. The youngest one wants to conquer the heart of a prince and asks the witch of the abyss to transform her long fish tail into a pair of tapered legs. Then the little mermaid ventures on earth in search of love, but... "I did not want - as de la Motte Fouqué did in his Ondina - that the siren would gain an immortal soul only and exclusively thanks to a stranger; thanks to the feelings of someone else. I think that would be unethical, that the conquest of eternal salvation depends on luck, and I am absolutely not willing to accept such a point of view. I wanted my little mermaid to make a choice, which is much more natural. And much more divine." Hans Christian Andersen
