Exploring Shape-shifting and the Story of Daegon

Shape-shifting in stories like the Little Mermaid sounds magical, but it's portrayed differently with characters shifting between human and animal forms. Not every merfolk is believed to be a shape-shifting human, as seen with Daegon, often depicted as a Fish God and not a shape-shifting being.
