Summary
"Where I'm from."
She started as always.
"There's about a 1% chance you'll see a whale your entire life."
Her eyes sparkled. There was probably a bigger chance here. She'd have to tell Hannah all about it when she got back.
"Land locked the way we are, it was probably even less for people like us."
Joy had never seen the sea before this.
Had never really thought about it.
But this world seemed to run on the sea, seemed to thrive and build and live with it like it was life and death and taxes.
Even she could admit that if left to it long enough she may become a bit addicted to it.
"So whales are incredibly rare. Just about as rare as it is to find someone, something, truly important."
Joy had lived her life in a bubble of knowledge. Scarping together every bit of information she could come across and devouring it. she could write a paper on anything. And hand it in, numbered with 12pt, times new Roman font with a bibliography and feel absolutely no stress.
But knowledge did not equate to action. So when she awoke in a dark forest with her heart beating and head screaming to survive the only thing she could do was try.
