From the LWB: "In order to enlist the aid of others, we must be able to explain our real needs and feelings."
I don't know why, but I get the feeling that this sentence speaks to a fundamental difference between the man in this image and the water sprytes. I just can't help but wonder, exactly what good gold is going to do these girls? He's giving generously enough, but the blonde one seems to be taking out of politeness rather than need or even desire. The other three don't seem all that excited either.
It makes me think, did he ask what they needed? Or did they tell him? Is his generosity misplaced. Perhaps he feels the need to "give" something - to someone, anyone. Their surroundings are idyllic and beautiful, and it seems that the sprytes don't want for anything at all, and that he is an interloper into their world. Is his gift indicative of a little colonial-type arrogance? He has made an assumption, I think, and not truly considered what the sprytes might actually want or need.
