Its implied they have multiple females with one male, simply because of a neccessity to keep the tribe going, due to small tribes with a heavily unbalanced gender distribution.
One part that refers to this is: "Rarely do even the largest Keeper of the Moon families have more than two or three sons. This is not by choice. Nature merely sees to it that more females are born to this race." From the miqo'te naming conventions.
This doesn't really refer to love, but its likely what sourced the belief that multiple females would have children with the same male in Keeper society.
As others said as well, sorry if I misunderstood the question.
Note the use of "race" in the description - males are rare in both Seeker and Keeper clans of the Miqo'te race.
I really think it's the rarity of the males that make polyamory less likely for the Seekers at least and probably for the Keepers as well.
On the surface it seems like an easy fit: one guy, multiple wives. Â But I think Seekers and Keepers culture and biological realities make it less applicable.
There's still room for it, I believe. Â I haven't been persuaded yet.
Such a good discussion tho. Â I love getting others opinions about Miqo'te especially outside the neko, fan-service, dynamic.
Oh I'm not really applying the rarity as reasons for true polyamory in either clan, just pointing out that the rarity of males exists in the entire race, not just in the Keeper clan.
