Koda followed Gunnar at a walk, his long legs easily keeping pace with the pup. Gunnar led the way to a small pool carved into the rock by the pounding sea. He leaned down over the water to get a good look.

"Wow, this is cool," Koda said, marveling at the diversity of little sea critters in this tiny but deep pool. He couldn't even name half of the animals he could see swimming or crawling around in the water. "What's that one called?" He asked Gunnar, gesturing to a star-shaped creature stuck to the side of a rock.
