The mermaids there -drown- people. In the Disney cartoon, they only "tried" to drown Wendy because they were jealous of her. Whilst not always very polite they were not horrible or evil. They were scared of Hook and the pirates fitting with Ariel as her mothers death being at the hands of pirates. Also in the original little mermaid, the little mermaid was the odd one among her sisters for feeling sympathy towards them, the others didn't care if the humans drowned or not, whilst not aiding their death they didnt prevent it. Personally think it could be a possibility anyway OUaT love their cross overs. Also Atlantica could be the mermaids home under the seas of Neverland. A realm with in a realm of sorts??

But yeh could also just be a case of the mystery appearance being alluded to is Peter. I love Neverland so can't wait!!

Def agree about Ariel being in the mermaid Lagoon; it will be a nice, easy tie in...part of her story could be that she was placed there somehow.

Definitely see her being different than the other mermaids as well...wanting to be human and all.

I also think she will have a connection with Hook somehow..,but I don't think it will be as a love interest ( Hook still hurt over Milah, still crushing on Emma), I think they will be related somehow,..strange I know but its a theory.

And I personally wish they make her younger!...like, the actual age the princesses should be-teenagers. In the Hans Christian Andersen story she was 16. Loved to see a 14-16 year old princess.
