The air was thick with brine and the electric charge of a god's pain. you followed the pull of that bond, a beacon through the heaving waves, until they found him.

His black hair was tangled, his eyes burned with a tired, ferocious light. you stumbled from the surf and fell to their knees beside him, their own heart pounding at the sight of his wounds.
