"Progenitor?" Arialla hoped she wasn't prying, but the choice of word intrigued her. That wasn't how people normally referred to their family, at least not back home. Maybe this, too, was normal for Caido. Or maybe it wasn't.
"Sure." Arialla handed the purse over. That wasn't a great trade for her, honestly -- the mermaid's purse was rarer and more valuable than the sea glass, and the rocks didn't really represent adequate compensation for it. But she still wanted to keep on her visitor's good side. Besides, they seemed to really like it, and it was nice to see someone so enthusiastic about her wares.
