The Land of Grimney - The Illustrated Adventures of Cora Pearl, aged 12

My heart is still heavy... I think I shall live here for a bit, in the water where I belong.

*She sighs.*

I try my best, but it never seems good enough for him.

Now you know it's not that! It's just that humans can't cope with those they love going off and sleeping with other people! I f he didn't love you he wouldn't care, look at it that way !

But I offered to do it to protect him! Why would he get angry at me for that? How was I to understand the rules, there is nothing written down and I have never been brought up with humans? I'm not psychic!

*She shakes her head and swims away from the bank.*

I don't know what to do...

well now you're just being stubborn , this part of the "rules" has been explained to you many times and you're very intelligent, It's really very simple, you love him , he loves you, you stay faithful to one another, happy ever after, unless you decide otherwise, in which case misery for you, misery for him and most important of all misery for your daughter. It's up to you really

I didn't know that applied before marriage? Otherwise why take those vows to stay faithful?

that's just declaring it to everyone and making the solemn promise to stay that way before the Zoriat gods

now are you coming back to the Tavern? goodness knows what Evarne has been plotting while we've been gone!

It is all too much to take in sometimes, you know... conforming to the human way. I never ask Kalvos to conform to my ways.

*Philomena shakes her head.*

No, I want to spend some time underwater for a change. I am sick of living in the dry human world.

*She dives beneath the surface with Karina.*

Oh well suit yourself, don't come crying to me if you lose him. I feel like I've had this same conversation a million times.

Gwenllian sits with her head in her hands

Well I tried , not sure I can be bothered sorting out other peoples problems anymore, maybe I should just run away, it's what everyone else seems to do

*Philomena bobs up.*

Don't be sad Gwennie, I need to spend more time underwater. I am a mermaid after all... Kalvos will understand that about me at least.
