Svana

Falling in love isn’t something you can plan for. It does not happen when you want it to. It hits you like a wild boar—and by the time you finally realize it—it’s already too late.

Svana watched as Percival and Dorian worked together to grab Jakobe. They lifted his arms and hefted him around their shoulders as one would an intoxicated man.

“What do you want us to do?” Percival asked, heaving slightly from the weight of the man.

“We need to get him to Aequoris. That’s where my sister is—she can help us.” Svana wiped away her tears, her stoic warrior personality fighting for dominance once more. She’d had her moment of weakness, but now it was time to be strong.

“All right, Svana, you lead the way and we’ll move as quickly as we possibly can,” Percival said.

She nodded, pushing her wild red hair behind her ears before she sprinted in the direction of the sea. A million thoughts tumbled through her mind, causing unrest and anxiety. Svana wondered how she would find her sister when she reached the water’s edge. And how would they breathe underwater if necessary?

Their journey to the sea took them longer than Svana hoped. Every time Jakobe breathed, she feared it would be his last. In her mind, all she could do was plead with him to keep fighting, to keep breathing, even if he couldn’t hear her.

The sound of water lapping against the edge of the soft earth was the sweetest sound she’d ever heard. Studying the shoreline, Svana hoped there would be some clue as to how they would breathe beneath the surface once they descended into the watery depths.

Percival and Dorian laid Jakobe down in the sand near the shoreline.

“What are you looking for, Svana?” Percival asked.

“I’m trying to figure out how we’re going to breathe underwater. I don’t know how my sister does it.” The wind was cold, nipping at her shoulders and cheeks. She couldn’t imagine descending into the icy depths with such temperatures roaring above the surface.

“Don’t worry, Svana. We will get him help. I don’t think we’re going to need to go underwater to do so. I see a city above the sea across the waves. If we can reach it, I think there may be someone who can help us.”

“Well, how are we going to get there? We don’t exactly have a boat or magical capabilities” Svana’s attitude had soured and she grew more bitter by the second. All she could think about was saving Jakobe. “Please, for the love of all that is good can we hurry. You don’t seem to understand that he deserves to live more than I do, and if he dies, I may as well die with him.”

“Svana! Do not say such things!” Percival yelled. “Your life has just as much value as his.”

“If my life has just as much value, then why did none of these bad things happen until I showed up? Before me, Jakobe was never threatened or beaten or kidnapped.
