No answer from a Tumsea, but there is something else: a loud and eerie voice, the sound of water rustling through reeds. She hears it, feels it, a moment before she spots it, a mind the likes of which she has not known before.
[say]Ghost whales,[/say] the Shield breathes, eyes growing wide in fear and awe.
Here is the creature that slew Maea; and oh, if it isn't beautiful despite that. [say]We should fly to get a better view,[/say] the Shield suggests to the Sword, eager to come closer and reluctant to risk inciting the ghastly cetacean's ire. Which, she realizes, may prove hard: adopting feathers and leaving the sea while soaked in water is a difficult task indeed.
Luckily, she has an idea.
Diving back beneath the water she lets her body change, adopting once more the dolphin's shape and sleek, undeniable musculature. [say]Grab onto me,[/say] the girl instructs, mentally gesturing to her dorsal fin. If and when her lover agrees she will put into action her play: pushing fiercely through the water with the speed and strength of a fired missile, launching them both - Deimos and herself - into the air, the better to then contort and change.
