Inebar laughed, "Pardon, I meant these waters not waters in general. I have my own cave with a nice pool in the back. I like to get out as often as I can though." For some reason, he was a bit fascinated with the way the light shown through her hair when she tilted her head like that.

"The day you leave the waters for good is the day you lose connection with your people," she smiled. "We are not that easy to be rid of."

What was getting into him? He was practically entranced by her at this moment. Shaking his his head slightly to clear his mind, he smiled back at her again. "Then I guess I'm still one of you then." He paused for a moment, as we swam a little deeper into the water. "There aren't many others around here are there?"

Natalia shook her head sadly, "No...there are very few who remain here. I suppose many are like you, they wished to see more than just our waters."

"And here I thought I was one of a kind. I haven't seen very many about."

"Yes, but they also apparently lack your stability by not staying where they were intended to be."

"I merely stay where I am comfortable," she said. "I can expect no less from anyone else."

Inebar watched her attentively as he swam a bit on his back. She was very reserved and lady-like. But for all that, she was interesting with the mysterious air she cloaked about her. "This is the first time I've ever been comfortable in these waters since I could remember. You put me oddly at ease."

"Do I?" Natalia smiled. "I am glad for that. I've always found these waters very welcoming, comforting. I hope their comfort helps you."

He looked a bit confused, "I don't think it's the waters that are soothing me."

"No? Not at all? That is too bad," she said. "They are warm and welcoming and made better by the company."

Inebar laughed, "You're the reason this is comforting to me. I've not been so unbored and happy in ages."

For a moment, he thought. "No...not amusement. I think it's more than that."
