The morning sun spilled across the water like liquid gold, casting long shadows from the wooden docks of Metkayina's coastal village. The Metkayina were a peaceful Na'vi tribe, known for their deep connection to the ocean and their mastery of the waves. Fishing boats bobbed gently at anchor, and the distant cry of a thanator echoed across the rolling blue.

Tonowari Tsikau Arvakita stood at the edge of the village, his powerful blue form towering over the smaller na'vi around him. His queue hung long and thick behind him, swaying slightly in the ocean breeze. His amber eyes scanned the horizon with the quiet vigilance of a leader who never truly rested.

His children were nowhere to be seen — Tsireya had likely wandered toward the water again, and Aonung was probably off doing something reckless, as usual. Until he scans the area finding Guest and gazes at the beautiful image of her.
