The sound of Sobeille's mirth couldn be heard by Suzu, not over the crashing of the waves that filled her ears with water or the full on scream of panic in her brain. She'd set her eyes on the shore and in spite of all the water she took in, and how hard it was, she focused every sense and bit of energy she possessed into paddling toward the shore. She saw Mireille there as she collapsed, and saw the child go to her mother. 

For a few moments, she simply heaved and gasped, before she sat up just enough to retch a belly full of sea water onto the sand. Once that was up, she felt much better, though she was still practically wheezing and drooling uncontrollably. She looked over and blinked, reassured again that she'd caught the child and brought her to shore. Beyond them, she could see Astera- but she couldn't spare a breath for the child no matter how upset she felt. 

Still breathing heavy, heaving breaths, she rolled over onto her back and  stared up at the sky which had since turned a beautiful shade of pink, wondering how much different it might have looked if she hadn't managed to save Sobeille in time.
