You step onto it's head, and it gently raises it back up, turning towards the open sea. It swims at an incredible pace, but makes sure you are safe and secure on it’s head. Soon you see two massive boulders blocking it’s way. The creature grunts, and you understand. This is why it has stayed here for so long. It had no choice. It readies itself, and you do so as well, without realizing it. With perfect synchrony, you and the monster strike the boulders, clearing the way and letting you both through. The water that was trapped in the harbor rushes out, propelling you both into to a wide open sea. With the fresh, free air blowing your hair, you can’t help but laugh. The monster responds with joyful growls and chirps. After you both celebrate and fly across the open seas, the beast turns back to the island you came from. The murky harbor is gone, replaced with a verdant green valley created by the force of you and the creature breaking through the stones. When you return, the monster lets you off. Before leaving for good, it turns to you one last time, closing it's eyes. You feel your
shake a little in your sheathe.
