Ningyo Sango

Ningyo Sango (珊瑚人魚) was the king of Sango Island. He was the wife of Sanjō Sango and cousin-in-law of Tomomi Shinju. 
== Background ==
=== Marriage ===
In 2044, the death of the previous king, presumably his father, has allowed Ningyo to ascend to the throne. He would later fall in love with Sanjō Shinju, and married later the same year. 
=== 2045 Duck Invasion of Sango Island ===
When Queen Xiaoya XI of Ducks decided to take action in order to recruit more personal servants for her duck empire, the duck army, under the leadership of Chief General Lord Wuyaya, invaded Sango Island. The duck army's attack begins with Wuyaya building army camps at the border of the island. They begin to attack the borders of Sango Island, where the guards are all killed in the process. They managed to break through the borders and massacred a village. Mirei Sanjaku, knowing of the incident, requested to oppose the ducks, with herself leading the opposition, but Ningyo, believing that is was just a racket and that the ducks will not hold on for long, denied it. His wife Sanjō secretly approved of the request, and encouraged Mirei to avenge her husband's death. By the time Mirei's army set off, the ducks have reached the capital city, where the palace is located, due to the speed and efficiency of Wuyaya and his army's battles. After Mirei's death, the army would reach the palace, where Ningyo and Sanjō were captured, alongside some survivors. As a result, the duck army dominated Sango Island. 
=== Aftermath and Execution ===
After dominating the island, Ningyo would be publicly executed, alongside the surviving mermen, as Sanjō watched in horror. 
== Personality ==
King Ningyo was an overconfident merman. He believed that he can handle the country effectively, to the point that he overestimated his abilities. He tends to underestimate others' abilities, believing that they shall not succeed with him in the way. This turned into his undoing, as he underestimated the Wuyaya-led forces of Duck Empire, which killed his proud Chief General Mirei Sanjaku. Ultimately, the duck army attacked the Sango Palace, captured the king and his wife, and ultimately executed the king in public. 
== Legacy ==
After his death, all the remaining mermaids, including Queen Sanjō Sango, were forced into labour in service of the duck empire. His wife became the queen of Sango Island.
