Dutch was interested in the voices of the seals, and said their songs were loud even when they were under the water. That it echoed. Raiyuk wondered about this; would a wolf's howl echo if they sang in the underdark? A wolf could call to their friends and family, or sing to the moon and stars, and did that constitute spirit?

His father drew his attention back when he spoke his name. Motioning to the fat bodies where they sprawled, speaking of utsuk. It surprised him to think these heavy beasts could be fast in any place. They looked to be more fat than anything, and their fins were so small; but he listened.

He wanted to try now. To go after these fat beasts while they were lounging, before they could think to go in to the water. I am a good swimmer. I can hold my breath for a long time, and he looked to Chakliux with admiration because his father was the reason for his skills.

Can I try? I want to try.
