They say sirens of the land can never be content in their own skins, so they wear the skins of others on top of their own. It must not seem silly to them, or shameful.
They say the sirens each have names of their own like merfolk do, names that only the oldest like Granddad know well enough to tell one from another. Maybe they're magic names, or maybe they haven't been used in so long the sirens can't help but come when they're called, just to see who still remembers that far back.
They say the first ones the sirens lied to were themselves, and that's why you should never believe a word they say even when it may be true. Especially not then.
