Eli flew toward Leira, the strength of their connection pulling him faster and faster. He tore through the water, heedless of his burning muscles and screaming lungs. Twisting his great body, he saw the cave she was trapped in: huge boulders obstructed its entrance. A tiny glow of light streamed from a cavity in one of the boulders. Images began to pour from it. The sight of them forced Eli to stop in his tracks as he heard Sirene’s thoughts fill the water. Desperately, he span around, seeking his mate. His heart dropped when he realised he was looking at a memory. Tilting his head in curiosity, Eli realised Sirene’s voice was coming from a strand of light in the memory. It was Leira’s recollection of the Source!
It took Eli less time than his daughter to realise the true nature of Sources, and another instant to decide his fate.
