Greatwater Lake Swimming shouldn't be that hard, right?

A gigantic creature approached the water. Echo froze as it's massive muscular body approached slowly, not an it, but a male. But unlike any she'd ever seen. Echo wanted to run, but she was frozen. When the deep red eyes met hers her body began to tremble. He is only drinking, breathe. She forced herself to take deep breathes as she watched him satiate his thirst. She quickly pulled herself out of the water and turned back around to observe the stranger.

An image of sunflowers came to her then helping to calm the remainder of her panic, and with that she found her voice. Her stance remained unthreatening, she kept her posture small, and kept her eyes slightly downcast, but nevertheless alert and on the stranger. "My apologies for staring, my name is Echo I've never seen anyone quite like you, may I ask what you are?"
