"Will we ever see you?"
"Can you please come back at least?"
Aqua and Rose were constantly swimming around us, asking for us to come back quickly. They were sure going to miss us, maybe miss me more than the rest, but yeah.
"Sorry, no promises, girls," I said. "Erm, also don't wait for us… or me, get married to someone else if possible, alright?"
"Ugh…"
"Really?"
Are these girls for real?
"Yes, really! Anyways, farewell, take care, okay? I'll open a Shadow Portal here only I can access, so if I ever come back, it'll be through here," I said. "I do plan to start doing some trading between your nation and my village, maybe make a connection with the dwarves as well."
"So you're coming back!"
"Alrighto!"
They were pumped up, but I just decided to ignore these mermaid princesses, our worlds were too different, and I would prefer if they remained living their leisure lives down here.
