Summary: A young sailor's love for a mermaid is preserved in the ring she fashions for him from a strand of her hair, but he finds himself in a dire dilemma when he remembers he has promised a lock of his sweetheart's hair to a mysterious old woman
This is a terrific story! I predicted that the ending would be tragic, but it was not. It is happy and dramatic but not extremely cheesy.
