Chapter 13

“How’s your leg?” Ulissa asked, pitching her voice high to be heard.

“Just dandy! It’s greatthat we’re in this river.”

More sarcasm. Ulissa rolled her eyes and turned her attention to trying to find a way out of the river. The hard rock of the cliff face made if next to impossible to do so, and Ulissa hoped they could find a place to climb out soon. Yaliana’s leg probably made it hard for her to swim

Luckily, the river soon widened and slowed, flowing into a wide, flat landscape with water plants along the riverside.

“Come on,” Ulissa said, starting to swim towards the shore and struggling in the shallows

Yaliana let out a strangled yell and abruptly disappeared beneath the water. Ulissa blinked in surprise, but before she could figure out what to do, Yaliana reappeared, thrashing as greyish-brown coils wrapped around her body, and she disappeared below the surface again.

“Yaliana?” Ulissa yelled helplessly, unsure how to help.
