Lorien stroked Cale's feathers with a gentle hand in order to calm him down a bit.
"I must be going now." said the Mermaid.
"If you ever wish to talk then my tribe will be around. We plan to stay here, at least for a while." she told him before turning around and preparing to head back into deeper waters.
"Wait." said Cale.
"Can you tell if my blood is strong enough for me to...uh...bare offspring?" he asked, blushing a bit as he asked his question.
"It is. However, if you want to have offspring then it would have to be at the time when the River-Folk in you is strongest." she told him before swimming off.
"When my blood is strongest?" he asked aloud but mostly to himself.
He then turned back to Cale, picking up the last fish.
"I'm ready to go back now. It's getting a bit cold." he told the Harpy.
