Desidero The Catfish Merman
In the heart of Tampa, a young woman named Isabella yearned for love. Seeking guidance, she visited a sacred spring, Palma Ceia. There, she met a mysterious man, Desiderio, and fell deeply in love.
However, Desiderio had a secret: he was a merman. He warned Isabella never to follow him to the spring. Unable to resist her curiosity, she did, and witnessed his transformation.
Heartbroken, Isabella later gave birth to a child, half-human, half-catfish. She released the child into the spring, where it grew into the legendary walking catfish of Florida.
