..so he is a mermaid. (Or merman, in this case, but still.)
Where I'm going with this is... reverse Little Mermaid. 🧜🏼♀️
Godwyn sings an edited Part of Your World while on a cliffside next to the ocean, lamenting how he can't swim. (No one in the Lands Between can. Everyone fells to water.)
He then gets his beautiful tail.
He doesn't know how to use it properly yet and is struggling and all that before he finally gets in the water and can actually swim.
Then he sings the short reprise of Part of Your World while in the ocean. (Which would also give us that iconic rock scene/pose with the waves behind Godwyn when he hits that final note.)
He's swimming with the fishies and having a blast under the water when he finds... the sea witch.
..and is instantly smitten.
He spends his time trying to gain her favor and win her over, bringing her little gifts that are from land.
It works.
She simply adores him and the little treasures he brings her from land, she loving all the shiny trinkets and jewelry he has given her and finds it a sweet gesture. (After all, fish love shiny things and come, come, come to the brightest thing that glitters!)
They get to know eachother more and she brings him to her lair in the deep sea which is just an underwater cave with tons of glowing sea plants to light up the place.
She then reveals that she's not actually a witch at all and was just called that because people think she's evil, the people of the ocean seeing the deep, dark sea where she resides dangerous and overall evil.
Meanwhile, our "Erik" of the story is actually someone from land who is trying to stop Godwyn from going between land and water.
And perhaps even tries to kill him along the way.
And is actually more of a true witch than the sea witch is.
You guessed it.
It's Ranni.
