In time, Solanna the seal maiden [br]got used to her new world.

0:00:04.639,0:00:07.309
Slowly, she learned [br]how to walk like a girl

0:00:07.309,0:00:11.471
and how to talk, though her voice [br]remained uncommonly high.

The fisherman taught her how to cook,

0:00:13.476,0:00:16.525
though she still preferred to[br]eat her fish raw,

0:00:16.525,0:00:20.940
and loved to each bowl [br]after bowl of seagrass,

0:00:20.940,0:00:25.209
and would sometimes eat a wriggling eel[br]by biting its head off first,
