“What’s with all the secrecy and trickery?” I ask her, somewhat annoyed.

“I was afraid you wouldn’t want to see me. A random monster washing up on shore and asking for your hand.” She looks away rather embarrassed. I think on it for a moment and decide against the sudden marriage.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t do spontaneous weddings.” I reply. Her disappointment is obvious to me as her hopeful spirit shrinks. “But I’ve never been one to turn away a lovely woman. Tell you what, why don’t start by having dinner tonight? Then we’ll go from there.”

The Flowkelp’s eyes beam with renewed confidence and relief. She shakes her head “yes” rapidly as she takes my arm. We start walking around my oyster farm some more as we chat away about each other.

Five long years later, I give her a necklace fashioned from the finest pearls I’ve collected sense we first met, telling her how much she means to me and that I’m ready to marry her.
