As the seaweed allowed life to continue to sustain his small body, Thèo took in the new world he was being given access to, with wide, sea-green eyes. At first the water was murky, and for one dismal second he thought that perhaps there wouldn't be much of anything to see down here. But then..then, as they swam deeper, all became clear. Literally. As the temperature dropped the distance he was able to see increased, and suddenly the world beneath the waves that he had always thought existed.

He looked back, a wide smile on his face (with his teeth clamped shut over the seaweed). That expression of happiness faltered for just a second. Hadn't @Iskra jumped into the water seconds before he had? But the boy wasn't ahead of him, and now Thèo could see that he wasn't behind him either. Did it have something to do with his magic? With the sparks that fell from his body? Would he perhaps get electrocuted if he lingered in the waves too long? And then there was @Ultima , the woman he had stood next to, and who seemed to silently whisper of dreams and light and other worlds. He had wanted her to come too - but ahead where light still rippled across the surface, he saw no trace of her.  Kisamoa's voice inside of his skull pulled the boy's attention back to the task at hand, but the smile had disappeared entirely from his lips.

Using his wings as flippers as many of the others had done, Thèo tried to position himself as close to @Luther as possible, while still giving them each enough space to 'flap' if they needed to. As Kis offered instructions, Thèo looked down to the amazing display of life that had been hidden from him until now. However as others around him offered words, Thèo's frown once again appeared. He was so ... so young. What word could he possibly offer that they didn't already know, or that hadn't already been said? They had family, they had friendship...twisting his lips, he looked up towards the surface again, in time to see that the magical beam of light that always followed him around, had permeated to these depths as well. 

Grinning now, he turned back. Hadn't Kis turned on a light so that they could see them? Everywhere else down here looked so dark, and darkness was a world that the boy would never have to inhabit.

Light He thought as strongly as he could - thinking of Gaucho and the Sun God, thinking of the magic that followed him around, and thinking of the sun-drenched Throat.


Theo's word is LIGHT.

Taken away to the dark side, I wanna be your left hand man
