Nerissa
once upon a time my world was big
and full of monsters
and full of monsters
And just like that, anchor two is prepared. The smile is returned with a far brighter one, Nerissa a shade warmer than she had been to start. The waters that help Raza along are gentler, the lights always a touch closer than they were before. There’s one final spot, one last anchor to be placed before they’re done, and as far as favours go this is a relatively easy one.
Big enough that she can ask for nearly anything too. How lucky is she?
The last spot is more blatant in its preparation, sand poured onto a rocky shelf to create a platform for the anchors, Nerissa gesturing for the rocks and then reaching out to take Raza’s hand, a tentacle rising to wrap around the barkeeps wrist. It’s faster to get them back to the coast this way, even if it isn’t as comfortable as using solely magic to drag Raza around.
Water rises around them as the beach rushes up, a clear spot opening into air for Raza as soon as they are near enough. ”Thank you for the help down there.” Nerissa hums smoothly, waiting until the other woman’s feet are on dry land to sink back into the waves.
Done~

but now the world is small,
and I am the monster
and I am the monster
