She heard the panic in Bird's voice, and willed herself awake. Running up the stairs, she was just in time to see Bird become dolphin and slip into the sea. Child was standing at the railing, her eyes straining for a glimpse of Kali and the two girls.

'Can you see any sign of them?' she asked Pio, as the elf shaded her eyes and swept the horizon with her gaze.

'None.' She looked again. 'None at all.'

Pio called to Angara, then, and asked if she would bring back the missing boaters. The dragon spread her wings and glided far out to sea, then rose up a great distance for a long look all around. Hovering in air for a brief moment, she then turned west and flew on.

'Angara will find them, Child.' she said, trying to reassure her friend. 'She will see them home safely.'
