Summary
Most people like her didn’t live so close to the sea.
She didn’t know if it was the same elsewhere, but here, the sea called. Those who could hear it moved to midtown, cloaked in the solid stone hewn from the cliffside far above the seaspray. Every year, a few of the sea-called went over the cliffs. Every year, a few more of the sea-called moved away. Outside this place, she’d heard, water was water and nothing more. Salt tasted bitter, not sweet.

Summary
The sea sang louder now, echoing in the drum of her belly, rippling in the pools of brine by the docks. It warned her, because it was kind. It warned her, because the warning was a threat as much as it was a truth.
your wedded love, gunner-a-hunting, will shoot the babe and he,
your lover and son both a man upon the land and a silkie on the sea. -
