Dramatic and powerful scene of a storm at night. A sailing ship is tossed on ink-black waves under a chaotic sky. Lightning flashes, revealing a young man struggling in the water. From the depths, a swift, glowing figure — the mermaid — surges upward. A close shot captures her determined expression as she reaches for him, her hair and tail streaking like a comet through the dark water. Painterly style, high contrast between the violent dark blues and the mermaid's luminous form.
