Dragoncrest Cliffs twilight stone

sobeille was lost from the world above. she floated down the deepening water column, where the cacophony of the storming seas overhead did not reach her.

it was almost peaceful, save for the fact she was actively drowning.

she kicked and a burst of bubbles tore from her throat as saltwater bored within. something pulled her up, and for a moment she fought it tooth and claw before she realized this thing of the deep was suzu.

she clung to her tightly, deep draughts of air taken as they crested the surface. seeing how far they were out, and how astera was but a speck on the beach, sobeille’s first thought was not the daunting journey before them, but the prospect of whether or not she could steal astera’s stone once they crawled ashore.

already, the terror from moments before was ebbing away and sobeille, ever resourceful, was plotting just how she could sneak home with the purple crystal astera coveted.
