Day 076: Water Takeoff
Athvor began to pump his legs beneath the water giving them some forward momentum. It started slow. Nynn was surprised at how fast Athvor could swim. It wasn’t long before he was a moving fast enough to get a small amount of lift under his wings. He began to flap his wings giving him even more speed. He husky body pulled out of the water, his legs streaming through the water. Then he lifted them up close to his body. His talons cut through the water till he flapped a few more time taking them high into the sky.
By the time Athvor flew above the clouds, Nynn pointed at the distance. “There’s land.” Athvor nodded. “Do you think that is Nyrynad?”
“I am pretty sure. We have been flying in one direction. I am sure we are not flying in circles.” He chuckled. “I hope.”
She grinned as she watched the horizon disappear into the clouds. Athvor took them up high not wanting to be seen by anyone who might be in the water below or on the land when the get to land. The less people see them the less trouble they will come into. He wasn’t sure where he was going to land when he got there. He didn’t know what they were going to face when they got there. All he knew was that they had to find the information they needed to bring Junis back to life.
