Yong opened his eyes...
Though the lightning before him had yet to fade completely, he was already beside himself with rage!
Looking at the devastated sea and the churning water around him, he shouted angrily toward the distant ship,

It puffed up its little body and suddenly floated toward the sky!
Only scattered motes of light remained
