She beats the void eel's head while receiving some scratches from it. She got wounds but survived after she swims away. The void energy enhances everything from her until she reached the Pelican beach in no time.

Then the boy asked, "What's your name?"
Raven's getting shy. (///￣ヘ￣//;)
"...Uh..." She speaks
"My name's Sebby."
When Raven pronounce his name again, she acts happily. (≧▽≦)
"Rebby!" She said
The two kids laugh together.
"How did you end up here?" He asked
For few minutes by sitting together on the sand, nobody sees them. They talk together while Raven explains to the boy about her wounds.
Sebby raises his eyebrows and became curious. ( ō ___ o )
"Can I help you to cure these wounds?" Sebby asked
"I just need a tea leaves, Rebby." Raven said
The boy thinks for a moment until he rushes to the town.
"I'll get some for you! Just wait for me!" Sebby said
Raven went under the trees to stay and wait for him. Meanwhile, Sebby arrived on the Pierre Shop after he remembers about Mrs. Caroline's greenhouse. Precisely, his mother 'Robin' was there. He approaches and asked the shop vendor 'Pierre'.
"Can I buy some tea leaves?" Sebby asked
Pierre widen his eyes. ⊙.☉
"Can you buy me tea leaves mom?" Sebby asked again
Robin got nervous, (٥↼_↼)
"I can't buy that, Sebastian. You're not too old enough to buy it." Robin said
Sebby was disappointed while his mother was holding his hand to leave. Later at outside, Robin was talking with Jodi. While busy, Sebby sneaks in the shop until he reaches the greenhouse. He picks one of harvested tea leaves and hide it on his pocket. Then, he left and rushed towards the beach again.
Later on...
Sebby calls Raven, "Little mermaid, where are you?!"
Until, Raven responses, "Rebby!"
He glances off and approaches at her. When Sebby gives the tea leaves, Raven chews it and rubs it to her wounds.
Sebby was so curious while watching her. ಠಿ_ಠ
"Why you're..." He interrupted
"My mother taught me for heal faster by using this... *Shy* T-thank you for curing me." She said
"You're welcome, little mermaid." Sebby said with an adorable smile
｡◕‿◕｡
Raven went back on the ocean while Sebby follows her. Before leaving, she look towards him and wave a hand. After saying goodbye, she dives while Sebby ended up gazing to the ocean.
On next day, Raven went back on the beach and saw Sebby building a sand castle with Sam. Somehow, Sam was called by her uncle 'Harvey'. When Sebby's alone, he gets the book and flips a page to read.
Suddenly, he jumpscares when Raven raises her head behind the book.
*SCREAMS* (ŏ [ ] ŏ)
Raven chuckles at him. (◕ヮ◕)
Later on, they read the book together. Raven doesn't have knowledge to read yet but Sebby reads a line for her.
Sebby reads, "Chapter 8 - A damsel in distress and the innocent prisoner's point fingers can only reach to touch together as greetings-"
"Where did you get that?" Raven asked
Sebby answered, "From stranger named Elliot. This 'Tale of forbidden Castle' is thrilling to read."
"I wish I could read." She said
"*Smiles* By the way, you came here to see me?" He asked
"Hmm... I guess so. *Points in the ocean* While I'm going to that direction to visit my father, there's a lot of wastes. It's polluting the ocean. So, I don't know... how shall I pass?" Raven said sadly
Sebby thinks until he tells her a plan.
"Exactly, the fisherman who lives here will have a voyage tomorrow. He'll leave at dawn. Why don't you hide on his boat to pass on the wastes?" Sebby suggests
"...Oke. Thanks for helping again." Raven said
When the sunset comes,
Sebby waves a hand with her, "I have to go home. Mom's gonna be worry at me."
"...Mom... Mom.... Mom......." Raven said repeatedly
Sebby waits for her response until Raven lowers her head.
"*Smiles* I don't know if my mom's worried about me?" Raven asked
During her smiles, she slowly tears until she cry.
Sebby comforts her.
"Don't cry for now. I think she's worried about you too." He said
"She will?" Raven asked
"Yes.... Can I wait for you on next day? Here... On this place all over again. At least, I could introduce you to my friend Sam and read this book together." Sebby asked a favor
"I dunno if I could make it..." Raven shook her head neutrally
