Totoka River So this is it....

While Potema was too frustrated to sense it, she was just as unsure about this method of learning how to swim as Charon was. They both had to go on a hunch about this. Potema, knowing nothing about swimming or water, decided that this was probably the way to do it. "Let's do that, then." She declared, walking over to what she supposed was shallow waters.

Potema walked tentatively into the water now, slowly reaching its center and finding that it only came up to her shoulders. Great. She could swim in this, she guessed. "So I just paddle around now?"
