A panther in the night, a fire burning bright. Ray had half a second to register falling, her stomach feeling like a stone as she hit the water. She was stunned for half a second before Arialla's voice registered. Ray latched onto the other Attuned's fin immediately, relief flooding her. "Thank you! Let's go!" Ray hoped that the encantados wouldn't react negatively. It was times like this where she wished she had an aquatic shift too. Regardless, she was incredibly thankful to Arialla for being there. She wasn't sure if she would have been able to handle the situation alone. Who knows how the encantados would have reacted to a panther suddenly being amongst them? It likely wouldn't be good. Ray kept a firm grip on Arialla's fin but kept her eyes on the encantados just in case. r a y The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion. —Albert Camus
