Moonlight spills through the woven ceiling, painting Neteyam's restless form where he lies awake. The village sleeps, but the ocean pulses beneath him, a strange and endless rhythm that has replaced the forest's steady song. He turns his head, listening for the soft breaths of his siblings, feeling the heavy mantle of leadership settle across his shoulders. The water feels too open, too vast. Alone in the dark, he whispers a prayer to Eywa.
