Still somewhat resentful given her lack of clairvoyance regarding Phantom's mute dialogue, Caiaphas took to the coast to expend some of her frustration. The pale wolf she had come to learn as Phantom was an asset to the Sound's future, but it did not deliver Caiaphas from the discouragement she felt after having such a difficult time grasping Phantom's nonverbal communication.

Slipping into the sea's embrace, Caiaphas gasped and winced as the sharp cold wrapped about her, instantly shocking her and sending a shudder wildly down her spine. Caiaphas had never had second thoughts so fierce -- suckling in a breath she felt her lungs constrict and her body revolt. She turned around quickly, stumbling blindly back to shore with her tail metaphorically between her legs.
