CHAPTER NINE

She cries for parents, siblings, for all the family she

left behind. She rages against the arrogance that

brought her here. She wants to be saved, knowing

that won’t happen. She’s so wrapped up in herself,

she doesn’t notice the first tickling touch against

her foot. The second questioning caress makes her

flinch, gathering legs tight against her body. Which

makes a hash of her buoyancy and almost drowns

her, forcing her to drop them again so that she can

continue swimming. In her aching heart, though,

she exults, delighted at last to have a foe more to

her liking. The sea is like the wind, her natural

weapons are of no use against it. Whatever the ulti-

mate outcome, even if the ocean claims her, at

least this will be a battle she can win. She can go

on to the Shadow with pride.
