Nerina was standing outside her house stretching in the warm sun. It was truly a lovely day! She peered at the glittering sea as it sparkled in the sun. She knew she had chores to get on with but just for the moment she wanted to enjoy the sun on her back. She closed her eyes just to enjoy the warmth. Suddenly, her pointed ears picked up a whisper from the sea, something was happening on the beach! A sudden noise behind her made her whirl around sharply, but it was only her brother.
"Murough!" she said urgently, "We have to go to the beach! Somethings happening!"
Murough Reiden yawned widely as he emerged from the house. Spotting his sister he smiled and was about to wish her good morning when she turned an urgent look in her eyes. Nodding sharply, he turned toward the beach and with Nerina in tow strode down purposefully toward the beach. What could be the problem? Was anyone else there yet? Did anyone else know?
