" W O W "
There wasn't really a word big enough to describe the wonder on Quanil's face, in their widened eyes, careening through their brain. "Wow" would have to do. It wasn't even an exclamatory "wow", just ... a statement-of-fact "wow."
"Those are gorgeous!" Okay, there was an exclamation, as they looked at the pearls. Then they looked down at the little shell in their hand and put it in their pocket. "I don't think I'll find any of the really big ones out here," as they cast their gaze up and down the beach, "but I'd like to find more. Maybe if I bring one to Freina, it'll cheer her up."
