The little brother then must just be a younger brother, who has only just been to the essence stone. Or, option 2, there has been an uprising/revolution on Kizaar, but in that case we'd best save that for another story I think.
*"Sankaar né bite tonight!"
"Mae jinat! Yo labta kez máde, we make a better chance of catching something with only one boat in the water!"
"You're right. Haomé!"
"Haomé!"
Sema didn't really like leaving him to fish all alone, but as he was bored to death he didn't care so much anymore. He was glad to finally be able to do something a bit more exciting than sitting in a boat, staring at the water. As he peddled home, he suddenly felt the boat shaking a bit. He looked at the water, and to his surprise there suddenly were waves. But how could that be? There hasn't been a breeze all day!
"Néééé!" He heard from the distance.
"What was that?!"
He started peddling a bit harder and as he did he heard a crowd screaming louder and louder. But then the noise started to quiet out and as it did, the waves also got larger and larger. Then he knew what it was. It must be a school of sannegta! He hadn't seen one all day so they must have been here. But as soon as he got that he felt a big bang from under his boat. They were here already! And realising that, another bang made the boat flip over..
As he had fallen into the suddenly sannegta infested water he started to panic. I'm going to die now! Sannegta were everywere, but strangely, not one had bitten him yet. Finally, all had passed and without a scratch he was able to swim, an ability they had copyed from the Ulukaï, to the surface to catch some breath and climb back into the boat. Back in the boat he saw one last sannegta coming, swimming very slow, almost looking relaxed or content or something.. very unlike the eternal hunters. He quickly threw out his net trying to catch it and to Sema's surprise it just swam right into it. He hailed the net back into the boat and resumed his trip back home, still full of adrenaline and a bit more content, having caught at least one fish. He took a peek at it and when he did it looked like he was still moving.. What was this? Sannegta don't live this long out of the water! He decided to stop the boat and take a better look, to realise the shark was still very much alive; it looked strait at him...*
Signature.. Let us think about that word for a minute. What do you think of when you hear the word 'signature'.
For me, a signature blabla, blabadeebla blabla...
