Ever since his return to Ogygia, Calypso had been hoping to spend some time alone with Leo. When she went to the camp to visit him, he was usually busy, doing repairs and maintenance on the ship, or away, hunting or fishing with Frank and the Princes. Their interactions were mostly brief and curt on his part. Calypso missed the way they were during his first visit.
One morning, she found him enjoying a breakfast of porridge on the deck of the Orestes, next to the Argo II.
"Good morning," he said.
"Good morning," Calypso replied. "My mother sent me to gather some elderberries and mulberries to make wine. Would you like to come with me?"
Leo nodded his head.The mulberries and elderberries grew in a grove outside the entrance the caves. Calypso placed her basket between herself and Leo, who grabbed the branch of a mulberry tree to examine it.
