My submission to #tapasmermaychallenge
Cer-Zay is a kind of a bard, inspired by the figure of Jeli from West Africa. She used to play the Kora, a beautiful strings instrument of complex and colored sounds. She had to break it to save some children in the comics. 
It was funny to do this since my comics fantasy world has no ocean, but it is nice to translate clothing/visual style and attitude to a mermay.
