I felt a slight chill on my lower body, and as I looked down, I found out we were in a body of water.
To be exact, we were on the shore of the island. Almost. I was waist-deep in the lake, which meant Aina and Zarfa were drenched almost to their chest.
"Agh!"
Was this why they held on to my arms?
"Aack--why are we in the water?!"
...I guess not.
"Did she not tell you where we would land?" I tilted my head and grabbed the two girls by their waists, carrying them toward the shore.
"Whoa...you're pretty strong Val--but no, there was no warning about it," Zarfa shook her head.
