Orlin POV
I frowned as I stared at the lake refilling. It had drained earlier all of a sudden. My guess was it was Aquarina, but why would she do that? It didn't make sense. Aquarina was usually so careful about her powers.

Mia patted my shoulder, her touch grounding me. She seemed to sense the same unease that gnawed at my insides.
I sighed and leaned my head against my wife's. Kine had said he would go investigate what happened and call me later, but the worry was a tight knot in my chest. My little sister was in trouble, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong.
