Et c’est là que je le sens. Un grondement arythmique sature l’eau autour de moi. Une pulsation. Il y a quelqu’un. Un individu que je ne reconnais pas. Lentement, je recule sur la pointe des pieds, en essayant de ne pas faire d’éclaboussures. Après quelques secondes, je me rends compte qu’essayer d’être silencieuse n’a pas de sens. Si je peux sentir la personne, l’inverse est aussi vrai. La pulsation devient plus forte. On vient dans ma direction. Et vite. Galen, le prince des Syrénas, est en mission.

Si seulement il pouvait la convaincre qu’elle détient la clé de son royaume...
