From the water golden eyes peered at the stone city that she walked during the day and was surprised to see it alit. The sea elf had grown familiar with fire and its tempting light and painful heat. But.... fire touched what its flames kissed, so why would the humans set their city aflame.
From the water the sea elf came, and noticed the cries that rained down from the city, people screamed and shouted, and many forms were fleeing the city. The sea elf hesitated before rushing forward, although the cries to flee and the strangness in the air screamed at her to run like scared fish and scatter from this place the young maid ran forward weaving through the crowd that fled the city, towards its heart and the climbing flames.
