"So nobody has any idea why this is happening to him? Weren't you talking to him earlier, Pearl??"
"Yes, but I don't know what happened."
Firefly says "Everyone, lift one end of the hammock!"
The seawing hurries to one end and helps lift. "Who's the doctor?"
"Mayfly. She's the best in Possibility."
Tiderider groans and twitches, his bloody eye flickering
"Are you okay? What happened?" Firefly says.
"Firefly?" Tiderider tries to sit up weakly, his eyes glazed. "I... I had a flashback... I think some of my memories are coming back..."
“TIDERIDER! You’re awake!”
"Ash... I..." he winces, clutching his head again. "I... I saw a glimpse of my past... it-it's not g-good."
“What was it?” They asked, concerned.
"Somebody tried to kill me... or worse... she looked like a seawing, but... different." He shudders, blinking blood from his eye. "Please don't let them find me..."
"We won't, I promise."
Tiderider yelps in pain, clutching his head and curling up with his wings over his face.
Firefly puts a wing over him.
Ash does as well.

"Make it stop... please make it stop." Tiderider moans, his scales flashing brightly as his breathing quickens
They tent their wings around Tiderider. “Look at me. Just look at me and breath.”

“I don’t know. But we’ll figure it out. What all do you remember?”

"Fragments. But much more than I had before.... I remember living on the outer border of the Sea Kingdom. l remember fighting for my home and friends... maybe I was a soldier or something? A SeaWing warrior?"
He shivers. "And I remember the weird SeaWing. The one with the shiny black and blue scales, like the shell of some sort of horrible insect. They were weird... wrong. I think they did something to me... messed up my memories... I can't remember when I first saw them. They said weird things with their scales. Said things I didn't understand. Things they didn't want me to hear or see. And... I have one more memory..."

"An... an item. A flat little gold crescent, with a sharp razor sticking up vertically from it in a half circle. There were two of them. The SeaWing wore one, around her eye, here..." he traces his scar. "She wanted me to wear the other.... but something was wrong. I KNEW something was terribly wrong.
