Nico didn't really know how to respond to this, "ahh a leopard!" He exclaimed, nodding his head as if he'd known all along, "that was going to be my second guess." He narrowed his eyes slightly, "uggh, Aslan." He spat the lion's name, "what a pathetic excuse for a king."

I haven't seen mermaids in ages, he thought, it can't be them.
