The polar bear was dying when Niv showed up. It was emaciated and barely breathing, crumpled where the waters were receding from the shore for low tide. It was lost, well and truly lost, and Niv felt a pressure in her chest. What should she do?

Step back.

The command was accompanied by a force field that pushed Niv from the fading creature. She yielded for something else that rushed free of the waves. It was another esk, bulky and sleek furred – the size of a whale! This esk was dark, but bold markings and a singular short horn distinguished it. A mass of energy emanating from this esk bowed Niv. Was this Makoa, the great Wanderer of the seas?

Makoa turned to look over his shoulder and Niv followed his gaze.

A white polar bear approached from down the shore. Twigs circled its face and something white and wispy flowed over its back.

Not a polar bear–

Aevre nodded to Makoa. I sensed it on the way in. Do you need my assistance?

A tittering and joyous sound flitted through Niv’s mind – it was Makoa’s laughter. As the massive esk bent over the polar bear Aevre turned her gaze on Niv.

What are you doing here?

Niv took an involuntary step back. I–

Go home.

What?

Aevre sat on the beach as other esk in the area faded into being to watch the polar bear’s transformation. Niv realized suddenly that this new esk would have others around it. Niv felt a twinge of jealousy.

Go home. Speak to Scamper. I know when you came into being. You left before you should have. Perhaps if you had waited you would be a traveler, not a trespasser.

Guilt chased in the jealousy and shock. Of course it was her own fault Niv had ended up like this. Niv felt she had brought everything on herself – for she was done blaming Scamper – and it was too late now even as Aevre issued her an order.

The anger welled up inside of Niv and she fled the site of the ongoing transformation into the frigid sea.
