"We are here!" Tsireya held a large smile.
As we reached the Cove Of The Ancestors a large smile spread across all of our faces.
"This is the cove of the Ancestors." Tsireya continued to speak, now looking back at the group.
"Where is Ao'nung?" Rotxo leant over to whisper to me.
"Mother stopped him from leaving," I whispered back as Tsireya kept talking to Kiri, Tuk and Neteyam.
I looked over at the others, the smiles pressed on their faces. I looked around the sky at the floating islands with trees and vines sprouting from them.
"Eclipse is the best time of day to be here."
We shielded our eyes from the eclipsing sun.
as the sky went dark the world under us lit up, the spirit tree glowing brightly, illuminating the ocean around it.
"This is the spirit tree."
We slipped off our Ilu, swimming down to the tree.
Neteyam stuck by me, his eyes alight with wonder and his face spread in a smile.
Tsireya instructed Kiri to make the connection. Neteyam looked at me. I nodded at him and picked up my own Kuru, showing him where to connect.
I made sure everyone else was connected safely before connecting myself to the spirit tree.
Looking around the scene around me, I was back at the village, walking along the walkway. It was the day I first met tsireya. She was tiny in my mother's hands, and yet she meant the world to me immediately. She smiled at me and grabbed my hand. at that moment the vision began to flicker and fade before I pulled myself out of the trance and looked at everyone.
Kiri had begun lighting up and shaking, her body going stiff and bubbles released from her. I quickly swam over to her, only shortly being followed by Rotoxo and Neteyam. I aided Neteyam in pulling his sister out of the water.
Rotoxo looked on in complete worry, below us Tsireya grabbed Tuk and held her as she swam to the surface.
"Come on!" Neteyam called
He pulled his sister onto his Ilu, climbing onto it quickly after laying her above the water.
"Kiri!" I heard Tuk cry out. Tsireya had let her go to get closer to Kiri.
My eyes widened and I swam to the girl, hugging her to my chest and holding her above the water.
"What is wrong? what is it?!" She shouted looking at her sister.
"A seizure, get her home." Neteyam looked at me. He began giving his sister air.
"Is she breathing?" I heard Rotxo worry.
I placed Tuk on my Ilu, sitting behind her and holding her close to my chest. I began riding away, keeping Tuk against my chest.
"She will be okay Tuk."
Tuk simply began to cry and held onto my arms.
Neteyam suddenly rushed past us on his Ilu, Kiri in his arms.
I watched with worry on my face and I held Tuk tighter.
"Your brother will get her home and my mother will heal her, she will be okay," I promised Tuk as we too began to rush after them.
