Dragoncrest Cliffs Whalewatcher

He approached, softly and silently. A familiar form placed along the edge of the cliff. He wondered if she had grown tired of his presence yet. Not that he had bombarded her with it, but he knew he was inexperienced and so different from those who lived here longer.

He might have settled right against her in comforted silence had he not spotted something out on the horizon. The shape of something breaching the surface and dipping back below.

A fish with a head bigger than his body.

Erzulie had recently informed him of such a beast. A whale. Beasts that could not come closer due to such massive size, but lived out in the darkwater. Out there where it seemed to breach the surface and disappear back to its depths.

Carefully he sat down next to the young woman. Close enough to be touched, if she sought to, but he did not fully initiate just yet. His bright gaze stayed trained on the horizon with the hopes he might see the beast again.
