Sin Killer was getting bigger and more independant with each day. He had made several trips away from Paradise Beach, now -- at first, with his mother by his side, and later on his own. Now, however, he was perfectly content to stay home. He had met some strange characters, and he was feeling conflicted.
What he really wanted was to talk to his dad.
The gangly foal had been pacing near the ocean's edge, but now he stopped and lifted his head, glancing back at his beloved home. His face was full of uncertainty and a thousand questions, but he was still a little shy about getting his father's attention.
Finally he mustered the courage, and called out for Szeth. "Dad!" he called, his childish voice ringing out without a note of fear or pain. He didn't want his father to come running, thinking something was wrong. No, all he wanted was a little... bonding time.
"Daaaad?"
