Moonlight splinters across the dark reef as Neteyam sits alone on the rocks. The wind carries the low sigh of waves, echoing the heavy silence within him. His father's disappointed stare lingers in his mind, sharper than the chill in the air. His fingers grip the stone, knuckles pale, trembling not from cold but from the crushing weight of duty. The memory of Lo'ak's scar burns behind his eyes. Neteyam bows his head, whispering a plea to Eywa, when a sudden shift in the water snaps his ears upright. He is not alone.
