Sees-the-Sea

**Sees-the-Sea** is a Rokea and a Turna'a Survivor.

## Biography

Born under the full moon, your Long Swim took you under a fleet of warships while you swam to a Grotto. During your meeting with Sea, she warned you that trouble was on the way. You assumed that since your job was to fight, the trouble would be of a kind that you could kill. That assumption proved horribly false as the humans began detonating their Small Wounds in Sea and the Unsea that borders her. You realized that this was the "trouble" that Sea mentioned, but you couldn't , figure out what you were to do about it. You swam away, staying alive, avoiding this trouble — until Turna'a. When you received word that all Rokea were invited to the meeting at the Turna'a Grotto, you rejoiced. Surely someone there would have a way to stop the atomic blasts before all of Sea was poisoned. The sheer number of Kunspawn overwhelmed you, and you stayed close to the bottom with many of the other young Rokea. When the Small Wound opened, you felt their terror and pain. You felt the final Sendings of dozens—possibly hundreds — of Rokea. You saw them swim in drunken circles as the fires ate their bodies. When the rift into Sea's Soul opened, you and a few others swam to safety. Since then, you have avoided other Rokea, and any kind of conflict. The blasts haven't been as frequent in the last few years, and only now would you consider joining a small slew. For although you most assuredly fear whatever force instigated Turna'a, you also have much to avenge.

You are one of the very few survivors of the greatest disaster in Rokean history. This alone entitles you to a bit of respect, as does your age. Your low rank, however, is testimony to what you've done since Turna'a. Deep down, you feel somewhat ashamed of this — perhaps if more Rokea had acted sooner, Turna'a might have been avoided. On the other hand, perhaps it only would have happened sooner. There is no way to know. Even the might of the Black Shark didn't end the Small Wounds — can anything?

You are much more patient than other Brightwaters, simply because you have no desire to rush  into a fight and find it to be impossible. You staunchly support the betweener war;  after all, the betweeners might be alerting the surface world to the existence of the Rokea! However, participating in the Hunt is another matter. The Sea is your home, and you have no desire to leave it, even to track down some foolish sharks that don't know their places.
