Qualenya Mermaid of Tampa Bay

A boy fishing on Bayshore Blvd  caught a sting ray that had the face of a girl. He heard it say - If you spare my life, I will grant you one wish. It was coming from a sting ray. The boy released the sting ray to the water and she transformed into a real girl who said she was a queen named Qualenya. The boy told her that he had a very hard life and that he wished to be a prince. Qualenya granted him the wish and adopted him as her child. From then on the boy could turn into a stingray whenever he wanted. The stingray mermaid queen is visible on the historic seal of the Palma Ceia neighborhood of Tampa.
