let the water take me
She has been, perhaps, avoiding this. Not entirely on purpose. She had actually tried to spend some time in the Threshold – not that she is any good at recruiting, given her whole lack of social skills whatsoever. She’d also been slightly distracted by the appearance of Kisamoa. He was home to her. She didn’t worship the Gods of Helovia, truthfully. Respected them, yes. She’s not stupid, and she’d like to not be turned to dust in the blink of an eye. Honestly, she even kind of liked the Earth God more than she might have expected. Like is still too strong a word, but it’s more than most get in her book. But she did not worship them.
Kisamoa though? He was her salvation. The gift of the seaweed was more than she had ever dreamed of, though fear of losing the seaweed pervaded her thoughts now. She could swim beneath the waves and never come up (well, maybe not never, but it felt like it). She could go home for hours at a time, lost beneath the waves with the fish for her friends.
No, she shouldn’t trust him. She’d seen enough in Helovia to know that. But it didn’t matter. She followed him anyway.
But today, she’s in the Falls, hoping to find Isopia. She has not forgotten her promotion, and had spent time in the Basin learning of their history and the God of Time. She had not forgotten the Earth Gods’ admonition to come together as a herd, and was trying to be kind and friendly with other members of the herd (perhaps, somehow, learn to make something akin to friends even, though that seemed like a stretch for her skills). But in the end, she still needed Isopia to teach her of the Falls, and the expectations for her role. There was no one better, after all.
She doesn’t know if she’ll find the Mountain that Knows, or if their Czarina would be in horse or raven form. So she keeps her eyes out for Hubris as well, figuring the golden dragon might be easier to find than his bonded. Maybe she’d luck out, and find no one, and just be able to go back to her pool. Stop it, she thinks. It’s time to grow up.
