The Black Pearl



Nila dived deep into the ocean, his eyes wide open, his arms curved before him. The aquamarine water
fell into violet shadows and the young Fairge prince plunged into the dusky depths, his powerful tail
twisting behind him. His nostrils were clamped shut, the gills on either side of his neck flowing open and
shut as he breathed. Little phosphorescent fish darted all around him, and he saw the serrated shadow of
a giant swordtail pass below him. He glanced up and saw the surface of the water, gleaming and shifting
more than a hundred feet above him. The dark shapes of fish soared overhead like birds in the wind, and
all about him the flowers of the sea bloomed in the delicate shades of rose and cinnamon and blue.
