Having decided to search for pairings among other worlds, he is pleased his son found his soulmate among human women.
It doesn't mean that Xeus's loneliness and longing haven't ended until he stumbles upon a crying female. Meaning only to soothe, he is spellbound when her presence brings him peace. Unable to resist, he forms an attachment to a female he can never have.
