Psychological Biologies (2) [Bonus]
"What do you mean?" Sylas asked.
"Well… Clypsian women have periods of heat. Our bodies encourage us once it's mature to seek out partners. We test our men one by one until we find a suitable match. Only if the male's seed triggers certain changes in our bodies will we allow them to fertilize our eggs. We then allow the ocean to carry our eggs to term.

As a result, they're also much more subdued and subtle, while ours are much fiercer; it practically consumes our minds and there's nothing we can think about other than copulation."
