    Summary

    “I just find it extremely unfair that it is always the women in those stories who get trapped. Don’t they have a way to fight back?”
    “I don’t think more than anyone else.”
    “Of course not. Well, then, why don’t the men get trapped as well?”
    “Because they’ll die if they are on-shore past midnight.”

    “Max?”
    Max closed her eyes, focusing on what Lucas said about communication with someone you… “My Grandfather. He told me stories growing up. Not just about selkies, but also about sea serpents and sirens and kelpies and such. And I always found it insanely unfair that it was the women who got trapped. I think he was trying to make me feel better when he told me.”
    “Quite the way to help a child feel better.”
    “It worked.”
    “That I’m not surprised by.”
