Ko swam to the top and then broke through the surface. He pushed his hair back out of his face and smiled. "Look." He pointed to the moon that was in the distance, but was casting a reflection on the water.

Xanthia blinked, smiling slightly before moving over to the bright circle that was glimmering over the blue surface. brushing her hair behind her ears, out of her eyes, she played her fingers over it, looking very much content, smiling a bit when she picked a handful of water up and the moon was captured within the liquid in her hands.
"it's beautiful" she mumbled softly.

Ko nodded. "I thought you would appreciate it." He swam over to be by her side and stared at the liquid she had scooped up. "This is another reason why I like this world." He scooped up some of the water. "It's like you can actually touch the moon."

"it's like, liquid moonlight, cold just like the moonlight is too..." she slowly let it drain through her fingers, scooping up more and blowing on it so it rippled. "but the moon, is much prettier from far away...when you get close to it, it's just a rock isn't it?" she asked softly, "nothing special...it doesn't really even glow...that's just the much more spectacular sun resting behind it..." she looked at the water in her hands, purple eyes reflected in the water, the pale moon behind her.

"I wouldn't call it a rock, the moon is a spectacular thing. So much than just a metroid with holes. It is a mysterious star that holds so many glorious facts and so many different undiscovered materials."

Xanthia tilted her head slightly, looking from the moon in her hands to the moon in the sky.
"yes...I suppose you're right...." she looked over to Ko, "Ko...if you were to stand on the moon, and look down at the earth" she paused for a moment, "do you think it would be as beautiful as the moon is from here?"

Ko nodded. "I think that people only think that the moon is beautiful because it is something that they can not reach. If people were to be able to be on the moon whenever they wanted to they would under estimate it and simply turn it into another polluted earth."

Xanthia nodded slowly. "then it is best some things are never attained" she mumbled, sifting water through her fingers again. "yes...I understand..." her eyes closed softly, merely breathing and allowing the waves to rock her gently for a few moments before the amethyst of her eyes was once again shown. "that is something to remember" she continued, looking at Ko. "I think I shall return home now...thank you, Ko, for showing me this world"

Ko let her words sink in before giving her a small nod. "I believe I shall go with you, too much water is bad for the skin." He waited for her to lead. "Also, if you ever need me to show you through a unfamiliar world, I will gladly be your guide once more."

Xanthia nodded, opening a wide portal. "thank you, Ko" she breathed again, slipping through the darkness easily. sometime she would have to come back to this world.
Not without a guide of course...
