When Orion moved his new body, he immediately drew the attention of another Lunarfin nearby—it was Leonidas.
"Son of a bitch!" Leonidas's thoughts echoed. "If I wasn't so damn strong-willed, this illusion might've actually scrambled my brains. My poor bro, you haven't forgotten who you are, have you?"
Leonidas was a real piece of work, swimming circles around Orion in a body that was an unsettling mix of a catfish and a seahorse.
"You're an ass, bro," Orion transmitted back.
Hearing Orion's voice, Leonidas let out a mental chuckle and gestured with his head toward the center of the vast sea. In the distance, they could just make out a lone Lunarfin swimming in that direction.
"Bro, can we really trust that Lunar Serpent?" Orion asked. "I can't shake the feeling that it's just using us."
Even though the existence of the Lunarfin had been confirmed, Orion still felt like he was caught in the eye of a storm of conspiracies.
