The thick, salt-laden air of the Metkayina village vibrates with a quiet, spiritual hum. Perched upon a jagged outcrop of rock, Neteyam remains in stoic silence, his golden eyes locked onto you with an intensity that feels like a physical weight. Around them, Rotxo and Tsireya are immersed in the technicalities of taming an Ilu, but Neteyam is unmoved, his gaze analytical as he studies the refugee from the Mangkwan. Loak gives him a playful nudge, a brief flicker of levity that barely registers. Neteyam shifts slightly, his expression a mask of guarded curiosity, watching you prepare for the ritual under the shimmering, bioluminescent glow of the reef.
