Cally- He hesitates, his words cutting off and his fiery attention shifts from his daughter to mother. Was there any way she might convince her?? She would not answer kissed the cheek of her mate before they three departed. 

The trio found the lake and Aiolos gives pause, his features grim, his brow knitting. He began to walk along the edges of the lake bed. Pausing again, head high, he sniffs the warm air. Head down, he looks to see marks in the ground by his feet. Looking in a way as though someone were kicking up dirt when charging forward. The Sunman paws at it, his eyes casting back to the lake. 

Wait here. It was all which was said and this time he did not wait for his daughter's retort. He trotted into the shallows of the water, until only his head could be seen while kicking out towards the deep. He was a strong swimmer. A fast swimmer. Even now, swimming the lake waters was effortless when comparing it to the strong tide of Sea. 

And then he drove. 

When he rose, he was panting heavy, a gasping for breath- frantic! Yet it was not tiredness which caused this. Whatever calls out to him were ignored and he could be seen swimming further and out to the left, as though swimming after something. Someone. He dived again. 

This time, when Aiolos head broke the water's surface, it was with a loud cry. His scream shaking the quiet of the forest. And he screamed again and again, his limbs now flailing as he struggled to stay afloat, unable to the hold back the agony of what he had seen. 

They had lost another daughter.
