Queen Athena
Queen Athena is a character first seen in the direct-to-video prequel "The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning", although she has been mentioned in the TV series in the episode "Beached". She is King Triton's wife and Queen of Atlantica. She is the mother of Ariel, Aquata, Andrina, Arista, Attina, Adella, Alana and Coral, Eric's mother-in-law and Melody's grandmother. Her speaking voice is provided by Lorelei Hill Butters, and her singing voice is provided by Andrea Robinson. She has long auburn hair and green eyes, and looks very similar to Ariel as an adult.
She came back with the gang when Ariel was 11 years old. It's from her that many of her daughters get their musical talent (Ariel's vocal range, however, is higher than her mother's.) Although she is not the main character in the film, she plays an important role. In the film, she is shown relaxing in a cove on the surface with her husband and seven daughters and many other merpeople. She and Triton have a special song ("Athena's Song"), and he has just given her a music box for their anniversary that plays the song. All the fun ceases when a ship stumbles on to and attacks the mer-family. Athena swims away from the ship while trying to save the music box.
