You learn to stand alone at last
So brave, and bold, and strong, and stout
Confirmation that Zeph had in fact seen mermaids was very exciting indeed. Sam wasn't even sure what it was that entranced him so much about the race: maybe the fact that since he'd been making books he'd been reviving old myths (at least, he'd assumed they were) and stories about them, carefully copying illustrations of intricately scaled tails.
Something about his question seemed to relax Zeph and even though Sam was still conscious of looking at anything too personal on the man's body, he turned to watch him as he spoke. With a small huff of a laugh and a roll of his eyes at first, he quickly replied: "You don't look that old." In fact, he was sure they were around the same age, even if he looked younger.
'Tame the ocean' was a wonderful turn of phrase, one that set alight every bit of Sam that yearned for good stories. "Did you seek out the city?"
