Carousel Hippocampus Vignette

Captain Henry had to find the starfish that would turn him back into a man again.  He rushed through the surf searching the sand and rocks for the orange starfish that lived there.  The sea witch's laugh echoed in his mind as he recalled the enchantment she had laid upon him:  "You sought to master the waves with keel and sail--so will you serve as the wave's servant until you find the sea star that releases you."  With a laugh and a flip of her tail, she vanished under the water as he twisted into his current form.
