The lake was very deep, and he did not stop until he reached to bottom of it, where the great, hulking forms of rock formations thrust upwards from the silt of the lakebed. 

Syx’s eyes, though, searching the rock formations, picked out an opening in one particular rock which glowed more than the others—a greenish color, rather than blue.

He halted in front of this rock formation, fins waving gently with the motion of the currents.

Minyon, he called, the sound clicking and echoing through the water like the noise of whale-song. Come out, Minyon, please.

The greenish glow pulsed for a moment within the rocks, and then a fish emerged, a fish with sharp teeth and intelligent eyes, and luminescent tendrils. It fixed Syx with an accusing stare.

Please don’t be angry, Minyon, Syx said.

!!! AAAAAAAHHHH THIS IS SO CUTE!! 

Syx’s ear fins! And his tail! And his expression! So worried, with the turned-down mouth like he’s biting his lip! I really enjoy the periwinkle shades you chose to use for Syx; the light lavender-ish blues really make him look so sweet and innocent! 💙💜Don’t be angry with him, Minyon! 

Minyon’s expression is really great; he looks so ready to start scolding! 😠🐟Also well done on the rock formation; drawing rocks and caves is really hard for me!

Thank you so much for this; it is adorable, and it makes me so happy!! :DD ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
