This is Ursula (from Walt Disney's The Little Mermaid) joining the ranks of her wards by turning herself into a polyp and became their queen.

------------

My name is Ursula, and I was meant to be queen.

When I was younger, I was always hidden in the dark, and a fish out of water in the light. I was the daughter of nobility in Atlantica, but when you're a cecaelia in a kingdom of merpeople, you find it gets lonely being at the top.

I was always a hard worker, and strove to be at the top of my classes no matter what. I excelled in all sciences, histories, and rituals arcane, but in spite of all my best efforts, I could never make a single friend. The truth is, my success made me more enemies than ever before, and I was left friendless again.

My family provided me no comfort in that regard, as my parents were always busy with some business trite I wasn't allowed to participate in. Even my own sister despised me for my success. Perhaps it was this stream of hatred and indifference that hardened me, and drove me to take myself further and further.

I wormed my way up the ranks; I spoke to the right people; I took the right steps for financial security. In the end, it didn't even matter. No matter how far I went, I was to fight this battle alone. The best I could rely on were my pets Flotsam and Jetsam, but it didn't stave off the loneliness.

I made my way to powerful positions, but never once was I able to prove myself to the people that I was more than just some foreign scum. I could prove to them that I was reliable, and I could lead, but I had to be given the chance.

That's why I took it. That's why I tried to overthrow King Triton; so that I could have my time to shine and get the respect I deserved. Sadly, these things don't always turn out as we want them to, and I was banished for my troubles.

I didn't give up though. I still had other ways of getting what I wanted, even if I would have to play a little rougher than usual.

I opened a service, dedicated to helping poor unfortunate souls in pain and need, have their wishes come true, while in reality they would make mine. If merpeople couldn't love me as merpeople, then perhaps it was time for a change, so that way they could see what it was like to be miserable and forgotten. One after the other, they came and came until I had an entire garden of polyps at my front door.

For a while, I was appeased with what I amassed, but in time I found that I still had a gaping hole inside my heart that just could not be filled, no matter how many more polyps I collected. But I desperately sought out more, like a starving animal. That was when I met her.

Triton's youngest daughter was no different really from the many other suckers I conned into my clutches, but she had something special that I long lost. She had a voice so beautiful that it could make the ocean's soften with its loveliness. It also proved vital to my victory that I take it, so that she could not succeed in the task I set for her to do.

In giving me her voice, she had sealed her fate, and inadvertently made it better for the both of us. I had long forgotten what it was like to really have such a beautiful voice when I was younger. I remembered many of my dreams, and what I had been fighting for in the first place. The years had really taken their toll on me, and my outlook on life, I was bitter and angry at the world for never giving me a chance.

But now, things were different, I had an entire garden of merfolk who needed me. I was their guardian now, who fed them and kept them safe. I freed them from the conflicts of the world they lived in before, and ensured they'd never be lonely again. If there was ever a time for me to take the mantle of queen, it was now.

This would not be the end though. There'd be more merpeople coming my way, and I shall give them the freedom from stress they deserve. I shall be like a mother to them all, and keep them safe as their rightful queen.

But of course, in order to be queen, one can't just look down on her subjects. If only from time to time, I will join them, so that they can see that we are not all so different from one another.

I was just destined to be queen.
