I love this story!
So much character and past in the people's conversations!
I would have liked to know a bit more about the Ondine-king relationship, why did she go away? Was he a bad person? Or was it just because he wanted her child to be his heir and she didn't?
Anyway, I like it that the son didn't make an appearance. Idk why, it just feels right.

Thank you so much! 😁
If I were to add to this, I would've developed the relationship between them more for sure! I briefly referred to his bad character in the beginning when I said he was usually indifferent to suffering. And then a bit again when I say he was corrupted by power, but now I realize I didn't say how...
I imagine him as the second son of the previous king, raised to believe he'd be a supportive player for his older brother. He meets Ondine and they fall in love, and it flourishes for a time. Then his older brother dies in a hunting accident or something generic, and he unexpectedly takes the throne... This changes who he is entirely, and Ondine hates it. He's suddenly power hungry, crass, entitled... When she finds out she is pregnant, she almost doesn't tell him at all.
I think something like that :).
I really appreciate your thoughtful comment, and you asking a question! 💚
