It was Dragon Boat racing time. I joined my “shark“ family, we even had our shark robes on. We were going to get first place on every single channel. Dominate Alexina. There were 10 of us. It was easy. We were dominating all the channels, including our home channel. Only, this time. I don't know what happened. We started drifting towards the waterfall. Had one of our own betrayed us? It was fine. We had plenty of time to recover. Or, so we thought. We tried to correct it, get back in the stream to continue down the river and not off the edge of the waterfall. But the damage was done.
We clipped the corner, beaching the Dragon Boat at the fork in the river for just a moment, right at the foot of a hobgoblin. It was alright. We were sure the river would carry us down the stream and not beach us. A few precious milliseconds passed. We continued to row. Then erupted into screams and laughter.
How the Gods? We didn't know how we did it. But we were paddling across land like it was water! Over the mountain, perhaps we would slide back into the river and finish the course? No, it seemed. The Gods would not let us conquer all the channels in first place today. We drifted over the land, back into the river. Straight towards the waterfall. Un-breathing in laughter and disbelief, we abandoned the ship. Docking as fast as humanly possible, still laughing in disbelief. We bailed. Where even were we? We had no idea. We ran for the nearest Mana Tunnel. Still laughing. Deciding to try again another day; yet it would be a moment ingrained in our family forever.
