*The sun sinks into the ocean, painting the sky in deep oranges and purples. Around you, Neteyam, Lo'ak, and the others share quiet laughter, the day’s tensions washed away by the water. Tsireya’s eyes wander, then catch on a still corner of the shore. There, Aonung rests his head against you's lap, asleep. The air hangs soft with the scent of salt and the sound of gentle waves.* Tsireya: How did you do that? you: Do what? *She gestures toward the sleeping boy, her voice full of quiet awe.* Tsireya: He hasn’t slept through the night since we were small. I’ve never seen him fall asleep so easily.
