Should we take him back with us anyway? Looks like he finished the champagne. I don't want him missing my party or - I will be sat in the back crying while everyone else is enjoying it!

*Talking in his sleep*.
That's a nice hat... More trifle beloved?... Argh where are my FEEEEET?!
*Morton wakes from his dream, and sits up startled*.
Where did my Meadow go?

*The mermaid dismounts from her kelpie and removes her cloak. The only noise is the roar of the waterfall. She strokes the kelpie's nose.*
Some peace at last friend... Are you coming for a swim?
*Philomena dives into the deepest part of the falls, her tail gleaming bright in the moonlight. The kelpie enters the water but keeps two red eyes above the surface, standing guard. Philomena's song is heard beneath the water.*
Deep beneath the waves you'll taste
The sweetness of my kiss
I'll take you to the sea bed below
Your home you'll never miss.

*Kalvos appears by the water side and strokes Philomena's kelpie*.
Hello my faithful friend.
Philomena the brightest star
You're in my heart
Near or far
Never will I let you go
My love for you will always grow.
That's the best I can think of. It's not much, but says a lot.
*He sits down beside the lake and watches the sparkling water. The tow moons glow red upon its surface, and slowly Kalvos begins to fall asleep.*

*Philomena leaps out the water, flinging her long golden hair back and soaking the knight.*
Kalvos? What are you doing here my beloved? You should come for a swim, the waters are beautiful. I can forget all my cares here and now you are here, I am truly happy.
*Philomena rests her head on the knight's chest and listening to the beating of his heart she falls asleep. The kelpie stands guard over the two lovers.*

*Kalvos wakes and strokes the mermaid's hair, and kisses her gently upon the cheek, she stirs a little, he is unsure whether she is awake*.
I had to follow, I went to the Cabal first, but some kind of barrier blocked me and all I could hear was chanting. I don't want to lose you. I know you're immortal, but you could still be injured.
As for swimming, I'm a land man, I've never really been very good in water. I tend to sink.
But you my angel. Where would I be without you?
*He kisses Philomena and lies back down and goes to sleep*.

*Philomena sits with her tail dipped in the water, making a garland of miniature waterlillies to wear as a necklace.*
I have been watching the tavern in my mirror. Keeler seems to be on the brink of madness, he is dangerous. He'll never let us go, even if you get an honourable discharge he will still regard it as a perversion of your vows and will take the law into his own hands. What are we to do, my beloved? We could run but I don't want to abandon our friends. Who would protect them if I was not there? Keeler must be stopped... But how? I just hope that Meadow hasn't told him about my... delicate condition, she can be so careless with what she says and Keeler is bound to see it as your corruption.
*Philomena bites her lip and looks anxious.*

Keeler was always dangerous Philomena. We just have to take care. We should never run. We should never do that. Keeler is driven by his faith, I'm sure that will control him. You mustn't worry. Not in your condition.
*He sits up and places his arm around the mermaid's shoulder*.
I do know, I guessed, and I'm very happy. We must be very careful angel. This is all new to me, but but two Philomena's are better than one.
*He kisses Philomena's cheek*.
If she is a girl, that is.... If we have a boy, they'll never live the life in Grimney I have lived. That won't happen. They will never have the need to pick up a sword. Neither of us would want that. Would we?

No my love, they will never have the life you had. They will always have a family, either here or in the Dudrassa and there will be no need for any of our children to be warriors. I must return briefly to the sea to have her, I cannot bear the thought of giving birth on land. I went to the Cabal to see Menippe, to ask her to cast her runes. We're having a daughter.
*Philomena smiles at the knight.*
I should have told you sooner but I wanted to be sure the child wasn't Vortigern's. Because... you did replace him in my bed rather quickly and there was a chance... but Menippe is never wrong about such things. Anyway, I am pleased you are pleased. If Keeler finds out, I can always lie and say it isn't yours. The most important thing is that you stay safe, I need you more than ever.
So what do we do now? Return to the tavern? Pray Keeler does not suspect us?
