  A lovely Indian fairytale from Andrew Lang's Olive Fairy Book.  
  An old woman, impoverished and hungry, sets out for the river to fish and wash herself. After coming out of the river, she discovers a venomous snake in her cooking pot. Hoping for an end to her misery, she takes it home, allowing it to bite her. However, when she opens the pot, instead of a snake, she finds a valuable necklace. She sells this necklace to the king, who places it in a chest. Shortly after, when the king opens the chest to show the queen, he is surprised to find a baby boy inside. The king and his wife decide to raise the boy as their son, and the old woman becomes his nurse, sharing the story of how the boy came to be in their care. The king eventually makes an agreement with a neighboring king that their children should marry. However, before the other king’s daughter marries, her mother cautions her to inquire about the boy's magical origins. The princess refuses to speak until the prince reveals his past: he had once been a prince in a faraway land who was transformed into a snake and later reverted to his original form. The princess mourns for the prince, lamenting his disappearance. The snake visits her and advises that if she places bowls of milk and sugar in the four corners of her room, many snakes will arrive, led by their Queen. If she stands in the way of the Queen, she can request her husband back; but if she is frightened and does not comply, she will lose him forever.

  Dive into a mysterious world of romance, magic, and mermaids 
  Beneath the Waves, Secrets Await: discover a hidden realm where the line between fairy-tales and nightmares blur. 
  My move to Ireland was supposed to be a fresh start, after the tragic death of my parents. Instead, I found myself tangled in a chilling series of murders. As I pry open the cryptic chapters of my mother's hidden past, I'm caught in a treacherous current of intrigue, magic, and desire, pulled by two mysterious men: Sebastian, whose mystique and power are as deep as the ocean, and Ethan, whose allure is darkened by whispers of witchcraft and occult. Neither are quite what they seem. 
  With each tide, ancient powers stir within me—powers that could either save or condemn the merrow, an ancient race of mermaids lurking beneath the ocean's surface. As a pawn in a savage war that blurs the line between mortals and myths, I am both hunter and prey. 
  Here, between the land and sea, I unearth my true heritage: part mermaid, part witch, wholly entangled in an ancient war where witches hunt merrow for their potent blood and mermaids wage violent battles against their terrestrial foes. As the stakes soar, so does the danger.  
  Will the secrets of my mother's past drag me to the dark abyss, or will my own burgeoning powers lead to a fate more terrifying than the dark waters themselves? In this war, it's not just about surviving—it's about rewriting the fate of two worlds, entwined by violence and bound by blood.  
  In a race against time, I might be humanity's only salvation—or its ultimate downfall... but it could cost me the one thing my heart can't stand to lose. 
  Plunge into the shadowy depths of Ireland's coast in this dark fantasy, where ancient secrets swirl like the murky waters of the ocean, against a backdrop of star-crossed romance and deadly intrigue.
