The first one gives her guess, but the mermaids make no motion as to whether she is right or wrong. They all must guess before the answer is revealed. The stand divided by two names, but what if none had guessed correctly? Would they all be turned away? Possibly, but this is not the case. A fair number have guessed correctly, making each mermaid look to the silver lady in turn before speaking.
The one in pink chimes in, finally, looking to the stallion who had not spoken. "Silence will award you nothing. You may leave." Her voice is serious, though still like a light lap of a wave on the shore.
The emerald mermaid is next, revealing the clue and sending away those in the wrong. "The one my sister speaks of is the lady Gossamer, the former healer and kind lady. For those of you who have guessed Kou, you may take your leave as well."
The one painted yellow speaks next, her eyes gleaming in the sunlight.
"Thunder
Approaches
Hail
Laughs
Rain
Whispers"
The blue mermaid, the last to pose the riddle, speaks next. "Of whom does my sister speak?" The purple mermaid is next, and the last to speak. "Guess quickly or do not guess at all."
