"Plus, she'll have Rona and I there as well. We wouldn't all go willingly if we didn't trust Jason completely," Luna was quick to add once Jason finished explaining where they would be relocating, and she hoped that the older mermaid would be convinced that it was alright to send her daughter with them. Maren and Rona both nodded in agreement as well, the younger mermaids wanting the woman's approval.
Maren's mother finally nodded now, finally deciding that the human man could be trusted. "I suppose there could be worse places for you to take them..." she murmured, breathing a soft sigh of defeat. Despite not knowing the full situation, the mermaid woman still seemed to know there would be no way to convince her daughter to stay. It was even a bit of a surprise to see her typically shy daughter so comfortable with a man.
Maren smiled at the response, despite the fact that it wasn't the most enthused, and the youngest mermaid left Jason's side to hug her mother. "We won't be far. Plus, we're all happy... and that's the important thing," she murmured, finally receiving a smile from the matron. "I suppose this means you're all leaving now?" Maren's mother asked, looking around the group curiously.
